My Vibe is 200+kgs heavier than my Corolla S.........why? The Vibe and Corolla share the same engine power train suspension.....it looks to me that my Corolla has more sheet metal..I`m a tad confused considering the Corolla is faster sharper and smoother off the line.

more body on the Vibe... more glass.

and maybe more structural reinforcement in the upper body to support the wagon roof. look at that rollover in the "damn good car" thread, I'm glad it's so structurally strong
