Haurus85 Neutral Newbie September 22, 2007 Share September 22, 2007 I dun think that's a problem on stock settings. I often ferry my gf's fren, and let's juz say she's not thin. Once squeezed 6 ppl into the car, go over hump all no problem. Did you lower the car? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, my neighbor just collected his NEW Toyota Corolla Altis today, SGY plate... The current version Altis all have a "sportier" grille (mesh grille without Toyota sign, only an emblem SS (i think) on the side) I think this is the Special edition or something. I looks slightly sportier than the conventional toyota grilles... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rncw 5th Gear September 22, 2007 Author Share September 22, 2007 (edited) what you saw was the 40th anniversary add on. each color limited 40 cars with body kits, and the special front grill. the panels inside also different, but can opt for woodgrain if dun like the metallic type.

Like what I've mentioned earlier, Toyota created Ah Pek Looking Bread and Butter cars to give other manufacturers a chance. Ok lah, Altis is a safe choice for you.

Zippaboy 4th Gear September 28, 2007 Share September 28, 2007 Perhaps you may like to consider other models or makes. Bought an Altis in 2005. Within 2 years, 1) Suspension sqeak and got it changed and the new parts squeak again. 2) Steering rattling sound that was never ractified since complaining at 5K servicing 3) Drive shaft had to be replaced. 4) Fogy headlamps during rainy weathers. 5) Finishing inferior compared to other models eg City, Jazz, Latio, Impreza TS, etc... regarding your last point,the city's interior is one of the worst i ever seen, it's so plasticy and cheap looking. (no offence to any city's owners) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
