Any fixed up 03 corollas?
I saw one in Alhambra. It was fixed up with some 19's on it. Looked sweet 
. So I went to ebay and I didnt noticed that they were so many mods for the 03 corolla. Damn, when I think about it maybe I shouldve gotten a corolla instead of a civic. But anyways I wanna see pics of fixed up corollas cuz I only seen one.

Rep Power: 396 Corolla's are hot...especially the S model. I almost got one on a lease after I sold right before I sold my civic in INK BLUE. I changed my mind on leasing and bought a used car. The corolla is made so much better than the civic, I hate to say it but its true...The interior is more exciting, the seats are more comfortable, the body is stronger, and the paint quality is better. The only thing I didnt like about it was that the motor was really loud. You could really hear it in the car...I never had that with my civic or with my chevy prizm that I have now.
As for Parts there are alot of parts available for the corollas...you just gotta know where to look. Other than being a member here, I am a member at a few corolla web boards...
The new corolla looks so sweet with a kit...and rims....

My car is 1.7el, 2 week ago around 2:00am I saw a Corolla type s(white colour) on warden st and he was trying to race with me, then I beat him all the way and he became smaller and smaller in my mirror, hey don't think that type s is that good with it's ****ing 160 hp and the ugly body kit(turtle's look). Corolla's body is stronger but heavier so don't say that I have a 160 HP corolla can beat civic or 1.7el in the street moron. IMO any car can be cool if you put that much money invest in it even though my bike can do it damn. 
I wish I was asian

Corolla S curb weight : 2590 lbs.
Honda Civic EX curb weight : 2652 lbs.
From edmunds.com
The Acura EL is basically a hopped up civic (build and quality wise minus the engine, same D17) so it should be heavier than an EX. The corolla has the civic by 62 lbs plus 3 hp and 11lbs of tq at the crank.
Its pretty msh a drivers race with the corolla.

one more thing while on the subject... for those of you that don't know TRD is releasing their supercharger for the 1ZZ-FE in the Corolla and Matrix/Vibe this month. No hp or prices have been released yet, but TRD usually makes very high quality parts. While the Celica GT shares the same engine with those three, because of minimal hood clearance, it won't fit the Celica.

Poor man's modded IS300???? Now that car just needs the TRD supercharger with different pulleys so it puts out 200+whp, and I'd roll in it and surprise the crap out of much faster cars!!!

Rep Power: 0 I think Corolla's are aiite rides. The 03's seem to be a bit overdone, but stil look good. It's just the fact that its designed so bubbley. I like sharper corners and stuff. The Civic has nice clean chiseled styling. The Corolla is well designed too, just not to my liking. To each his own is basically what I'm saying, now post up some more pics. They are looking good.

wtf is a corolla type-s? it's just plain S, not type-s. damn toyota trying to make acura look cheap by copying the S designation. also, it only has 130hp. where did you get 160hp from?

lease: You probably also think the "Celica GT" was named so to downsize Mustang GT, right? Those Toyota marketers... sneaky buggers arent they
