    you guys are talking like Toyota actually manufactured a car and called it the "AE86" or "hachi roku" and never made it again -- wrong... it's a Corolla. You should realize that this is just the next-gen version of the Corolla that may just happen to be RWD like the last version of the Corolla that was RWD: the hachi. Big deal if they're using a Levin in their marketing campaign.

    Ummm...no, the AE86 was one of the greatest cars in its time and Toyota new it. If it wasn't for mainstream demands, budgets, and stiffs in suites, they would have kept the Corolla up like that. Props to Toyota if they release this car to going back to the good old days where the Hachi was the car to have.
