Toyota delays new Corolla until 2008

[Cantona156]

Rumours has it that Toyota went back to its drawing board after seeing the modern Civic (and hence the delay).

So I think the new Corolla should have some major improvement.

It will be a quite dissapoint news for Corolla fans, in the comming one and half year Honda civic will continue to dominant the mid-range car market

Nice design, try harder. May be stay like that, better still for Honda. Anyway, I doubt it will look like this, perhaps just smoke flare. Perhaps, too advance a design would also scare their Ah pek category buyers away. Must remember who buy most of their cars in the 1st place.

Even the new Hyundai Avante has 121 Hp in tap.

[Quantum]

absolutely correct , Toyota has felt the threaten from Honda Civic , so they rather delay their version than launch a ah pek look one

[Quantum]

don't bother, this pic most probably is the one that they plan to launch in 2007, the 2008 version maybe a big exciting

[Viosy]

seems like the end design might look something like the 2006 civic

[Vit4wd]

The Jap designers seem to have run out of ideas.

 

Nothing new or refreshing.

 

Rear looks like Premio's

I suspect very much that the new civic caught them by surprise...so its back to the drawing board for them..

Still a pek look.
