awwww....you guys had so much fun. really wanted to see what a stivo is made of. can't blaze the streets of Melb due to speed cameras and all. good to see all u Fast & Furious enthusiast. anymore events coming soon? :D

talk about being a tv addict....this is way too exaggerated. gosh, i rather get a PLASMA for my room then. LOL

[VIC] Spotted a Black Levin with nice rims bearing number plate SNM*** parking and then parked in Caulfield along the shops/cafes.

Saw a red Corolla Levin zooming past me along Springvale Rd, heading past Centro, Brandon Park towards Mulgrave, about 12.15-12.30pm. Darn it, should have counter zoom'ed that car. <_<

Saw a Red Stivo zooming past me the opposite way on Dandenong Rd/Princes Highway at the Murrumbenna traffic Lights heading towards Melbourne city (about 2+pm/3pm). Twin model to mine.

Hey there! the pic u got up...is that the Stivo from Lemans Toyota? if so i had a test drive of that....but decided to go brand new 05 instead... anyhoo...that red stivo is a sweet one!! good BUY!!! where in melb are you from? ← 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? :) Kelvin ← Khuong's my name.... LoL dude....nothing wrong with the car...was in good condition....Just wanted a new car thass why...when i went to enquire about the new car...they assumed i was there to check out the used one...so i thought why not test it...after the test i told them i wanted new not used...LOL...anyways...i liked the look of the Face lift model as well and the 6 disc MP3 player....and the price they wanted for you car ....pfft.... i was better off getting a new car. How much did you end up paying for it? from memory...they wanted $24000.... I'm from Mill Park dude...where are you? ← 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. :-) Kelvin :)

Hi peepz, Thought of dropping by to say a BIG hullo to ya'all. Just got me a 2004 Corolla Sportivo this week and am happily packing little punches on the streets of Melbourne. This cute lil car performs not bad at all. Anyway, anyone here from the Garden State? :-) Cheers! Kelvin ;)

Hi there, I've just bought a 2004 Toyota Corolla Sportivo from a Toyota Dealer here in Melbourne just a couple of days ago. After screening through this forum, gosh! seems like the gear shifting problem do look scary. How do I check whether this issue in my car has been rectified or shall I drive it to the Toyota Service Centre to get it checked out? Let's say, if I need to change to the TRD ClutchCover, Clutch Plate and Flywheel, are these covered by the Toyota warranty which I am on? As I know the gear feels very tight when I shift even at low speeds. Can anyone help please? Cheers! Kelvin
