BOGEY MASTER

Hey dude, One interesting thing I found when I visited my local dealership. The headlight unit of the Ultima sedan I saw there was not properly sealed around the edge, leaving a small gap between the transparent perspex part and the metal panel. I was wondering whether if it's just that particular car or are all 07 corolla sedans assembled that way? If that's the way it is, wouldn't water slip through the gap and wet all those electric wirings behinid the headlight unit when you are washing the car?

Definitely no drag racing when the engine is new. Definitely don't let your grand parents touch the steering wheel either. Just drive normally. Feel free to rev it up a bit only when neccessary. This will produce a well-trained and responsive engine.

Hmmm... I'm more into the practical side of modifications. IMHO, there's nothing more important than the handling of the car. Therefore I would start with sports suspension set like Koni / Eibech / TRD etc. and a slight low-down. I would also put a max 17" wheels on to stablelise the ride. Anything bigger would look too "try hard" for me. It's kindda unpractical too, considering the higher fuel consumption they bring and high cost of tyres. Next step would be the intake and exhaust. Again, considering the fuel price nowadays, I wouldn't fiddle too much with the engine. Just remember, the more horsepower you gain from the mod, the more it drains money outta your wallet. I would just get a CAI and exhuast system changed to ensure the stock engine would perform at its best. Lastly, with all the exterior "cool" mods... I'm kindda over that age. I wouldn't want my car to look too rice or too yank. That means no vinyl or fancy paint job, no fake badging, no altezza-style brake lights, no neon strobe lights, no jumbo sized muffler. In fact, I'd like to remove all the unneccessary factory badges and make it a "clean" car... The only "Cool" mod I'd do is change the head unit and speakers. If there are enough space in the boot, perhaps I'll throw a woofer and amp in, but my golf clubs are always more previleged in my boot. This is just me. But I recommend saving those 400 bucks for a set of sports suspension....

Hello fellas, I'm new to this forum and is looking forward to become a regular visitor here. Nice to meet ya all and here is my first posting. Does anyone currently own a 07 corolla sedan? I'm just curious if it feels any different from the hatch when it comes to driving. Also on the stats sheet it claims to consume less fuel compared to the hatch, has anyone validated this claim? Finally, as I am a casual golfer, I'm wondering if the boot space of the sedan is wide enough for a golf bag? Cos my mum's 06 corolla hatch can not fit golf bags in the boot. I had to split fold the rear seat to load it on, which kindda sucks... P.S. if anyone happens to own the Ultima model, please share your comment on your ride?
