I remember this thread from back when I was doing research on the car. I almost got a black too, but it was too prone to heating up like a stove under all the sun we get around here

 

Ya I just joined so I missed that thread. I actually thought I wanted blue, but when I saw the black I had to have it.
I've owned four Corollas previously but this one only has 4km on it, all my others had 200,000 plus! 30 plus years between the old ones and new one!

 

I saw a black XRS in Oakville.. so unless that was you....

but yeah that black XRS looked soooo good.

 

I have a black XRS!!! I think I may have the only one in Toronto.

 

I suspect this will be the only black one around here (Brantford) for awhile.

 

I just bought a black XRS 5spd MT in Buffalo, NY. The dealer had to go all the way to Pittsburgh PA to get it for me=)

 

I know of two Black Manual tranny XRS'es on dealer lots--one in Ottawa, ON, and one in Cornwall, ON. They are either not selling that well in that colour, or the dealers thought the black would sell best for XRS and ordered them, instead of the blue or the red ones.

 

bought mine about a month ago, xrs looks best in black

 

I saw a black XRS back when I was checking out the car. It was noon, and the car was outside sitting in the sun. I touched the hood and nearly got burned. I touched the next darkest color (magnetic gray) and my hand got hot but it didn't burn.

I bought the gray one.

 

thats what garages are for :thumbsup:
