NEW toyota BLADE/AURIS/MATRIX - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

static808 · 03-08-2007, 10:46 AM

hey, since the matrix and corrola were the same car (matrix was the hatchback version), will the new corolla just be the sedan version of the blade?? i do believe the corrola is due for a makeover in the upcoming future...

are you sure matrix will be blade...? not auris...?
i just checked toyota.jp... blade is equiped with 2.4 L engine...
it's like a camry hatchback...

edit: ok... just read somewhere... no more matrix... the name blade will take over...
but we don't know what sheet metal or what engine will they use here yet...

they got to keep the 1.8 l vvtl-i engine theyre pretty quick and great on gas...but from what i found out 2.4l is the top model vtt-i engine instead.. i prefer the lift instead!!

Looks pretty much like a Yaris LB. I wonder how much it would cost to get your body panels chromed... would they need to dip the whole carriage? That would be super awesome if every metal part were chrome! Blinding drivers in sunny states I bet! hehe

eTiMaGo · 03-09-2007, 10:31 AM

brings new meaning to the world blingmobile....

nsmitchell · 03-09-2007, 03:38 PM

^^^ Yeah, but this thing looks like something from the future, like T2 - Jugement Day! Bad ASS!

eTiMaGo · 03-09-2007, 07:30 PM

yeah if only it could melt into a puddle then reshape as a lambo gallardo...

Kaotic Lazagna · 03-09-2007, 10:24 PM

the paint job reminds me of a classic American car, a Shelby?

ChinoCharles · 03-10-2007, 12:51 AM

I think we should get together as a community and make something happen... something that would make everything here better.

Lets all pitch in a few bucks... we'll centralize the money in the midwest to make it easy. Get a team in Chicago... bring a forklift (because that is all it would take) and swipe Nimble's car. We'll use the money to have a chrome shop on standby. We won't waste time stripping body panels... just dip the sucker.

Oh, the possibilities.

And you know Nimble would just LOVE it!
