i believe it's a corolla, and different places have different versions of corollas, for example the corolla u mentioned is available in europe....maybe some other places too, not sure :smile:

[Aero]

I tried looking at the european website *great britain* they have the same look as the ones sold here the corolla altis

[Lafora]

that's a corolla for sure. just look at the front end. exact same front end of the hatch corolla that was entered in WRCs in the late 90s

!!!

ok try some other places in europe...

there was a rally corolla in the Canada Auto Show this year...looks the same as yours but hb.

man the corollas look awsome at many places just not NA...

[Aero]

And what kind of engine does a Toyota Corolla 2000 VE have??

[bondobondo]

that guy, i believe imported the front clip from the uk and fit it on his regular US model corolla..

i am not sure how hard it was to fit.

the 2000 year corollas have both the vvti engines AND the 7a-fe engines, depending on what month the car was made.

the vvti engine is the 1zz-fe and identical to the one they are using the Celica GT and the Matrix.

the 7a-fe engine was toyotas answer to a larger displacment economy hauler..

both displace 1.8 liters however the 1zz-fe has slightly better torque and horsepower numbers.

the 1zz-fe probably will have a larger potential for aftermarket as toyota has used this engine in a number of different vehicles.

What do you mean by &quot;depending on what month the car was made.&quot;

That Corolla is DA BOMB! You no wonder why everyone says that Toyota doesn't make cars with personality...the ones that do, never make it over here!

There are actually 3 models of Corolla...NORTH AMERICA, JAPAN/ASIA, EUROPE. Not to sure...but we, of course, get the most bland of them all. Built right in our own backyard.

there was an engine change even tho the model of the car appeared to be the same.

i thought it was based on the model, where the higher class (obviously) would get the vvt-i technology....

so not all corollas of the same year have the same engine?? How do you find one which engine you have?? lets say i got the car around late spring to early summer... does it have the vvti?

[bondobondo]

an easy way would be to open the hood

if it has vvti, believe me, toyota will make sure you know about it.

These are the Corolla's they had in the Middle East when I went down there.. It's the same car from the Rally's but a hatchback.

I don't know! I like the American version of the Corolla better, it's more aggressive!
