Re: Anyone done mods to the new Rolla Sportivo yet???

My wife and i bought one back in August and we absolutely love it! The only thing that i worry about is that it is such a revvy engine that i can imagine because of that they may not be very long lived..what are peoples thoughts? also, has anybody found any hassles in the gear shifting? i have found at times that it just doesnt want to geardown...i mean it does go in but not as smooth as i would expect and at sometimes almost appears that the linkages stick...anybody experienced this? Ours went in the other day for the recall and had all the parts replaced for that....i find it much smoother to drive although i have found it revs much quicker...anybody else experienced that? i know this is also probably psychological but i have found the gear changes a lot smoother at high revs...before they were kinda jerky when you put the clutch in but now it's all a lot smoother...anybody else experienced this? How often would people who own one rev it up to 7+K? i mean i love going up in the rev range coz i feel they are so responsive at high revs but every time i do it (which isnt all that often) i worry that i'm doing some damage somewhere....it only has 4,500kms on the clock at the moment.....

P.S: What about a turbo? after the 3yrs of course.....also, has anybody heard of the Corolla RunX? It is the Jap version of the Sportivo and comes out AWD
