There's no point in getting an EX. You only get a few hp(115-127). The new Corolla's are ugly. If you want to "upgrade", I'd get an SI(115-160).

Ok, so let's play hypothetical scenario here...

Assume his LX sedan is worth about 9k on trade in, maybe 10-10.5 on the open market, and a new EX will cost him 15500-16000...

5k for a sunroof and ABS and a whopping 10hp...

I dunno, I guess to me 5k is far more precious than a silly sunroof and no real power gain. Personally, I'd take that 5k and use it in 3-4 years as a nice downpayment on a better car... Nothing wrong with an EX mind you, but it would have been MUCH better to have bought one from the start...
