A definate improvement but...

Looks way too much like a small camry. Also, I hate the interior- kinda has an "old man" look to it.

Sorry everybody, its not cool!

It looks like a "retirees car" without the grnd-FX and it looks like a "retirees car with grnd-FX" with the grnd-FX.

I think the new Civic had sex with an Echo. Looks very much like a bubblisious Civic.

Who wants to drive a "Toy-Yoda" anyway!

The Verdict...Anyway you slice it...I think its rude...which is odd for me because I like any car with performance potential...unless its a GM!

THEMAN : The corolla is coming out in February 2002. Which is in another month. If the corolla doesn't appeal to me. I will get the Protege5. THat's my final decision.

But did you see the picture with the body kit in Car and Driver? Butt-ugly. And makes the car look top-heavy.

I'm happy with my '90 LX.

And my '02 Altima (gotta love a big 4-door sedan that gets better than 25 mpg on the highway, runs the 1/4 in the 14's at 95+, and tops out around 150.)

Well, it doesn't look too bad, but it's still no P5.

A really important question (for some, anyway), is whether or not the back seat has any more room. I remember the 1999 or 2000 (can't recall which) had a really dinky back seat, particularly compared with the Protege.

exterior--looks o.k
interior---looks ****

overall---would still prefer a sp20

Thumbs down EWE!!!!!!!! Looks like a swollen Echo!!

Sorry. Its sux....as with all the rest of Toyota's latest models. I think Honda and Toyota are running a contest to see how much they can f*ck up the looks of their cars. Remember the Honda and Toyota of old.....late 80's to early nineties?

The wheels are too small and it looks so far off the ground that it could be a 4wheel drive!

All of Toyota's recent cars are losers except for the IS300, i'd kill for one of those.
