shouldnt be too hard if its anything like the badges on the Mazda3 ... just use dental floss to remove it.. and some sort of 'goo' remover to get rid of any excess glue, then use silicone or something to stick it back on hopefully its only held on by double sided tape.. and not drilled in (which i doubt) oh yeah, very cool rims B) ← You are right, mate. They are not drilled in, just glued on. I have asked the dealer if they can get the old badge in. He said that they can order them for me if I wanted. Will want and might order just befored the 1000km service

Yes, thatis the stock standard height. I have put on 17'" furys with Bridgestone Potanz, 215/45/R17.

Thanks for all the congrats!!!!!!! Sorry did not keep in touh was away from Perth and getting some installs done in the car. The car drvies smoooth, very very happy :) Whoever has been waiting it is definitely worth the wait. Take care and waiting to see all your rollas now.

Hi, Picked up my sportivo yesterday and here are the pics :) Today, it has gone to my brother's shop to get speakers, alarm, hands free kit, tints and may be a new stereo fitted. Will post pics on my garage. Oh what a feeling !!!!! :)

Hi guys, Went down to the dealer where I had seen the black sportivo and managed to get some pics of the car. The dealer was closed and the car was inside the show room. Therefore, the pics are not that good and also I was using my mobile phone. I could only get the side shots of the car as it was parked on its side. Will post more when I pick up my car on Monday. Cheers

Yes it has the rear spoiler just like the old sportivo

You are right it has a thin fake metal mesh on the front left and right sides just under the headlights and has the mesh also on the rear of side skirt as the old sportivo did. The one I saw was black so the black bits on the front like the fog ligts did not stand out much. I think a lighter colour will look wicked. It is hard to describe the front bodykit but if you see a levin from the front amd the sportivo you will be able to tell the difference. Mate, the interior is the same no changes AT ALL apart from the stereo system. Wish I had pics but that stupid dealer

cheers mate. Will keep you an updated.

Hi Guys, I saw the new sportivo today. I could not take any pictures as the dealer was not happy that I was buying from anither dealer. The car is basically the same as the old sportivo from the inside especially from the inside Similarities: 1) dark grey leather trim 2) chorme bits on the side and the middle console 3) same 141kw but a smoother curve for the torque.(improved engine) 4) same 16' rims Difference 1) Front looks like the levin but has a bodykit 2) has round fog lights 3) the silver "sportivo" badge on the side skirt is no more on the side skirt. It is on the front door and is red in colour. 4) comes with MP3/6 CD in dash system.(no more cassette player) There volume controls that we predicted are not on the steering wheel. The price is also the same. Did not get much into it but he stated the it will cost $32000 on the road. My white sportivo one should be ready for pick up on Monday so I will take pics and post them then :) Looks Good, it will not disappoint anyone :)

:) The new facelift sportivo is here in Perth. One of the dealers has called me today, saying that he has one ready for on his floor just come in. I will go in today and try and get some pics. Will give update.

You are right. It looks like this........

But I hope it looks like this .....

I think it might look like this but with a differnet leather interior.

hi guys, I am from Perth and the dealer is from Rockingham, WA. I have just spoken to the dealer who is looking after me and he has again given me the thumbs up. He is confident that I will be driving away in my new white corolla sportivo. Sounds too good to be true but verything is going to plan and he will be calling me next week with the engine deals of the car. As for the pictures, he does not have any but states that they will becoming on the same shipment. Will keep you informed of any progress but it is promising. :)

I can asure you that it is relibale news. I told me dealer that I have been using my sister's car and need to know when I could pick it up.. He told me come on 28th. I told him that that i would not call but just pop over there with the cheque(I tried to test him out) He said no worries just come in. He said that someone will call you and give you the details of the car for insurance purposes. I also called other dealers that I have been begging (and how are now begging me), and asked them when they expect the car. They all said that there are some on the mid-february ship. I will call my dealer in a couple of days and check the progress.
