Odd Looking Corolla

Post by DavidPIL »

Hey... Was looking at some wheel galleries and came across this photo on Fondmetal's site. Not sure if this was posted before but could this possibly be what a 2/3 door Matrix/Vibe might look like?http://www.fondmetal.com/ingle...g.jpgI remember someone posting an edited picture of a Vibe making it into a 3 door, thought it looked pretty cool but this kinda looks odd. Just thought it was interesting...Dave

Hey Guys,First post for this lurker, so G'day G'day eh?Kinda looks like "brand H" unit if you squint and hold your head the right way. Personally think the two door config defeats the strongest plus of the Vibe/Matrix, and thats it's comfort and capacity front and back. But with a body kit and a blown engine, you'd have.... enough invested to buy a celica GTS or perhaps The Generals' forthcoming incarnation of the Grand AM, which is also rumoured to be blown. Thanks, but I'll keep my four doors and base motor

Sorry about this previously being posted in the general discussion but the jist of this post was what a 2/3 door Vibe/Matrix might look like. Quote, originally posted by DavidPIL »Hey...

I think that a pic of an older model of this car surfaced on here a while back when posing the same question. It was identified as a European Corolla model that was not expected to be brought to North America. I think that they said it was a popular car to mod for racing in classes like what the WRX came from.
