The MKS is already out with the 3.7-litre V6. I don't know if the EcoBoost version will replace the 3.7-litre or be a performance version.

The EcoBoost will eventually find its way into Ford's trucks also.
isnt ecoboost just adding direct injection

with that they can keep the same performace and add economy
seems pretty smart if you ask me
same car and style
with new tech delivers everything its alredy offered with better economy
go for it

I'm guessing and fingers crossed that the next tC will be more competitive performance wise. Also as Sulu mentioned the Corolla XRS should get the new 2.5ltr thats in the 09 RAV4 next spring. Or a variation of that.
the TC and the XD are the only ones that are offered superchargers
not even the XRSs have it offered


and man alot of the 09 xrs guys are going to be pissed if next year does get the 2.5ltr from the rav4

but i hope they do
the xrs should be more beefy than the previus models
its sad

give us one rwd car toyota one
thats all we ask for
1 car thats rwd
at this point i dont care if its sporty
as long as its awl
or true AWD not the half baked awd version in the matrix
