Depends where you live and whether it is covered or not. An exposed air filter is illegal here in NSW, the police can defect you for it.

I have not driven Levin, but Sportivo has 2zz engine which is better plus it looks and feels better. The wheels, kit etc may be replaceable but leather interior is nice and LIFT is fun. I think (depending on your location) you could get a lowish KM sportivo for $13000 easy. I paid $10000 for mine with 128k about a month ago.

My 04 corolla makes as much power as my old 2.5L straight 6 r34 skyline GT (non turbo). Save the money and buy xr5 focus or something

Epic read, great results

Hi Just saying hi. Picked up a 2004 sportivo, 128km, full service history @ $10k. Some paint chips/scruffs which I plan to get fixed, and the radio position looks good for a dvd player. Been lurking forums for a bit. New to AUS from NZ. Had a couple of corollas there but just run abouts. Usually drive skylines but Aussie frowns on things like that. Been pretty impressed with the sportivo so far, pretty quick and smooth driving experience. Plus should be able to fit some junk in that trunk!
