Tough times are ahead. A brand new car is not in the cards. My new (to me) 16 year old Accord serves the purpose extremely well. And it's paid off!

Where are the exterior sketches I've heard people mention?

That's a pretty nice interior, somewhat resembles (not alot) of this generation's interior.

Much like the Corolla has always been, it's nice, but nothing to write home about. I was hoping they'd do something really interesting like Honda did with the new Civic and what Toyota themselves did with some of the Japanese market cars.

Reminds me of the next-Gen Ion interior.

Funny... I was just about to say it looked like a Saturn.

Re: 2008 Toyota Corolla News: Drawing of interior

I don't hate quirky as a rule, but the Civic interior is awful. This is much nicer, while still looking sharp. I sure don't want to see Toyota do any better, but based on interiors I'd take the next Corolla over the 2006 Civic.

I guess I would have been the third. The resemblence to the Evoke is uncanny.

Re: 2008 Toyota Corolla News: Drawing of interior

Very impressive. If the exterior is executed as well as the interior looks then the Corolla will be the small car to beat.

That is really nice. GM is going to need to refresh the Cobalt.

I believe the Cobalt is actually being refreshed in 2008, along with the introduction of the 2008 Saturn Evoke, who's interior is similar to the Corolla's.
