Hi folks,

No one is really posting on the Corolla board, so I thought that I should put up a post. It's about nothing significant, really, but read on if you are bored.

I met the owner of a white AE92 Corolla Levin with a 4A-GE 20 valve motor today, a motor that is not avaible in our North American production line-up, and we had a brief discussion outside Pacific Mall.

To my surprise, it was a silver AE92 Levin with a 4A-GZE that he was driving, his friend's car. We had a discussion about how many AE92 Levin's there are in Toronto exactly. Too bad I didn't get his number or e-mail

He told me that there are five AE92 Levin's in Toronto, and counting. Let me try and remember the five:
  • 1) White, 20 valve motor, no further info.
  • 2) Blue, 4A-GZE supercharged motor, mesh wheels
  • 3) Silver, 4A-GZE supercharged motor, black 5-spoke wheels
  • 4) Black, red wheels with chrome lip, no further info.
  • 5) Another 20 valve equipped Corolla?! Who and where?
  • 6) White, stock 4A-GE - recently totalled in an accident, stock
    Note: it seemed like the man who I met today, did not know about this car.

Well, Andrew, do you have anything else to add to this. I mentioned your name and I told the owner about your car. Do you know him? I didn't ask for his name, but I think I've seen him before.

I think he was rather surprise that I liked his [friend's] Levin. I guess he wouldn't have expected me to have known about Levin's and thus had an interest in Corolla's, who would honestly?

I hope to meet with him again, nonetheless. An interesting thing to point out is that the 20 valve conversion, on his white AE92 Levin, was done by a truck driver. He picked up the motor from a company that went backrupt.

Kevin
