Any news on the 2014?

Yes, it looks very nice. Also read that it handles very well. But it's a Toyota...or Subaru, and true to the heritage, its weaker than a sick dog...Why didn't Toyota/Subaru put some beef into this thing? We're not in Japan! No one drifts here! Cornering is for Europeans and Japanese, we want BEEF! The big, thick, juicy kind, not the itty bitty 4 cylinder that supposedly gets the greatest hp/liter in the history of the automotive world...

 

That is correct. I work in the Corolla/Matrix/RX350 plant in Canada, and we NEVER build more than 1 model year, UNLESS they are running a Pilot car down the line. After July shutdown 2013 Corolla's stop being produced and the Major Model change 2014's started coming down the pipe.

I have no reason to believe Japan does it any different, since we essentially operate and produce like they do.
