Pretty much, it was TMC's way of making an Ascent look like a Sportivo, minus the good gear....like lift & leather :P

From what I remember, it was an Ascent with Alloy Wheels, Rear Wing and a badge....

You're correct there Azza ... I think the success of that particular model was what prompted Toyota to do the current Ascent Sport, which seems to have been a popular move on their part.

im pretty sure that the TTR/Accent Sport are the same car, only with different badges

This was my Sunday

Departed my house about 9am, to go and get some coffee, doughnuts and a newspaper and saw a mass array of Sportivo’s around my area.

1 - Turning Left from Pine River drive Murrumba Downs onto Dohles Rocks Road, I had a Blue Pre-Facelift sitting next to me at the lights.

2 - As I turned left, there was the Champagne coloured Post-Facelift sitting at the lights on Dohles Rocks Road waiting to turn right into Pine River Drive.

3 - Sitting at the lights to turn off Bray’s Road Murrumba Downs turning right onto Anzac Avenue, I spotted a white Pre-Facelift go past heading east along Anzac Avenue.

4 - While then travelling east along Anzac Avenue, waiting at the lights on Anzac Avenue waiting to turn right onto the Bruce Highway Northbound was a Red Pre-Facelift.

5 - 7-11 Rothwell, I pulled into the servo and there was a black Pre-Facelift at the bowser.

Then later on yesterday, I was cruising around with my wife, and saw the following:

6 - Whilst sitting in Maccas Albany Creek, a Champagne Post-Facelift westbound along Albany Creek Road.

7 - Sitting at the lights on Gympie Road Caseldine turning right onto Linkfield Road was a blue Pre-Facelift heading north behind me.

8 - While heading north along Norris Road Bracken Ridge, a black Pre-Facelift turned off Bracken Ridge Road and headed south along Norris Road…..

Wow - 9 Sportivos in 2 trips in 1 day, and it wasn’t even a cruise….

[fad]

I saw lots of corollas, when I went for a drive to Sydney.

nothing that stood out. A few levins ascents etc.

What i did see, I parked in the high rise parking next to UTS, corner of quay st and thomas st, about 4-6pm on Sunday. I parked next to a WRX, i think MY02 and it had its passenger window fully down.

When you know the area back to front and have a keen interest in what else is on the road, then remembering the what & where is easy...

Hiya! By the way...I did not get your name....

LOL yea...it is the one from Lemans Toyota. Oh no, don't tell me there's something wrong with it that made you buy a new one instead??? Care to tell me why you bought a new one instead?

Well, for me, I thought if I buy a new one....it will immediately depreciate, so I thought...what the heck, just buy a near new one and at a better price (which I squeezed it out of the dealer..heh heh). Actually, I wanted to get a Celica but saw the condition of that car and said....NO WAY! So, I spotted the Sportivo and checked it inside out and test drive it....seems to be in excellent condition. So there you go...the long and short of my car purchase history. LOL

So, which part of Melbourne do you hail from? :)

Hi Khuong,

Yea, new is alwiz good. LOL pardon my silly ignorance but is there any Face Lift difference between the 2004 and the 2005 model? haha...the only difference I can see is that they have placed the SPORTIVO badges differently. For the 2004 they have place it on the side skirtings whereas for the 2005, I think they have placed it on the doors and the rear.

Hey, just wanted to know where I can change my bee sting antenna for a shorter one. CRAP! My fregging garage door is automated and it opens upwards till a certain level and my car's antenna always hits the door whether it is going in and out. I guess I need a shorter one if not I will always be exiting my car to adjust the crappy garage door....so beats the purpose of having it automated rite and even worse if it is raining. Know any place where I can get it changed or I am able to buy it off Autobarn and change it by myself? Haha....any recommendations? For me, I hail from Caulfield. :-)
