    Third gen hatch @ SEMA PA?

    I was browsing a friend's album of pics from Fort Washington, PA's SEMA show last weekend and saw what I think is a third gen hatch:



    That IS what it is, right?

    Nope- Toyota AE86. They look close, but the front bumper and corner lights give it away, also, if you look close, it appears that there is a toyota emblem in the center above the front bumper.

    Thats a Corolla AE86. AKA the most overrated old POS ever.

    Somone would easily get 20K for that car. Probably get 5K for a stock rusted up one with a blown engine.

    yes, it is RWD

    around here, an AE86 isn't worth that much. usually they go for around $2000 for a nice one.

    Ahh yea, i totally missed the "Toyota" in the grill. Damn, and here I thought it was a sweet 3G hatch was getting some nice show time. Ah well.

    Funny, I should've remembered about the AE86 cuz I took a Grand Theft Auto AE86 model and reskinned it to emulate my old 3G hatch, heh.

    Hachi Roku.

    heh.. takumi the tofu delivery boy !
    Anybody with a pulse and eyesight can get excited looking at $250,000 supercars. It takes a special kind of gearhead to drool over an Accord, Sentra, Corolla or anything else made out of parts found in dumpsters, scrap yards, and along the side of the highway.

    wonder if one would fit.....they sure do look close in size and shape.... I bet you could get one to work, with maybe a little modification.

    i believe they are a good bit more narrow than our cars. you have to remember they are different car classes.

    accord = midsize

    corolla = small

    True, but remember that the Tercel was Toyota's small car back then. The Tercel was about the same size as a Civic, maybe a little bit smaller. The AE86 chassis is smaller than an Accord, but not by much. The Camry was the real mid-size vehicle, until they decided to make them real big.

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM
