Bah, who cares about that mis-badged Corolla? I'd rather see pics of the Hummer parked in front of it

This is the second Lexus rebaged corolla that I've seen. People just have too much time on their hands.

I'm wondering why they didn't just go whole hog and put LS430 back there.

The IS / Altezza is a COMPLETELY different platform...front longitudinally mounted engine and rear drive.
The Corolla uses the standard econobox formula of transverse mount inline-4 and front drive.

Actually, though, for those who cannot afford an IS, the Corolla XRS is a nice alternative.....and considerably cheaper.
