AE92 100kw SEDAN!	Wed, 25 September 2002 05:06

Last night after work I noticed an unusual corolla. I was lucky enough to have the digital camera with me at the time so I got a couple of quick snaps thought it was pretty dark and the flash is piss weak. AE92 owners should check this out. It's called a Corolla GLi Twincam Executive. It's pretty much the sedan equivalent of an SX hatchback or Seca but with black leather interior and by the looks of it, non-sports suspension. I don't know where it came from but the speedo on it's SX/GTi dash goes up to 240km/h so I'm guessing it's not from Japan. Anyway, I posted the pics up on the web for all to see. Check it out! http://www.tahir-online.com/sx_sedan.htm If you notice the images are very dark, turn up the brightness on your display.

Troy, you'll just have to keep your eyes open for toyota parts that come in from Europe or south Africa, possibly New Zealand. Remember that model GLi Twincam EXECUTIVE!! Paul, I work at Newtown these days but you're not far away, If I pass by, i'll beep ya. [Report message to a moderator]

Then this mustn't be from NZ coz nowhere did it say sprinter. Are SX's called sprinters in NZ too? Hmm, how many other countries use RHD? I think the carribbean might be RHD. I wonder if I could get a list of RHD nations [Report message to a moderator]

I reckon that its a Rice Corolla... The owner may have just got the stickers and placed them on the car... I have never heard of "Executive" being used for Toyotas... The only manufacturer that I can think of for that is Holden... [Report message to a moderator]

You've never seen 'executive' badging used on toyotas? Try the Camry's of the early 90's. Also, Nissan Skylines had executive badging just like the VL commodores and I wouldn't be surprised if some other makes sported the executive label. There's nothing rice about that corolla (except maybe the front reflectors). It's all factory, you could tell by looking at it and how do you explain the 240km/h speedo? Obviously the car is not from NZ. I did some checking and the Toyota Corolla GLi Executive was South African car of the year in 1989. that's in some pretty good company going by the winners of other years BMW 735i in 1988 and BMW 535i in 1990. have a look! http://www.dispatch.co.za/2000/03/28/features/MOTO R1.HTM [Updated on: Sun, 29 September 2002 12:38] [Report message to a moderator]

Cool, I always wondered if there was an ae92 besides the liftback seca that was actually in good taste and wasn't BUTT-ugly quite literally. Although I did see something interesting at tafe the other week. It was badged a corolla II and while it was the stunted ugly little hatchback shape, it's rear actually had style. In the rear lights mostly. As for the executive badge, don't forget the slugna's as well. It must have been an early 1990's thing, everyone was doing it. [Report message to a moderator]

I have seen a corolla II getting around hobart before, from memory they look like a ae82/ae92 cross with 2 doors, pupup lights and an 'E' series engine. There was also a turbo version, i guess that the ones imported would be turbo to make it worth while. [Report message to a moderator]

I just did another websearch for the corolla II and found that they don't all have popup lights. the later versions (early 90's) kinda look like a starlet. [Report message to a moderator]

After seeing those pictures, I'm now thinking, what was it that toyota released in volume over here? It wasn't a camry, but it was a sedan like that corolla. Would have been the early '90's. It was those corolla sedan's wasn't it? I see them quite frequently. Very similar looking, but the front is more curved like the widebody camry and not so square. Yea, I'm sure it was a rolla. The tail is slightly different too, and I doubt they had 200+ on the speedo. That one in the pictures is pretty unique looking still. [Report message to a moderator]

Sounds like you might be talking about the AE101 (?) Sprinters. Their front end looks like the widebody camry. The car in the photos is a stock standard car that was imported here from South Africa or something. I remember the dealer sticker on the windscreen read something very unusual with a weird phone number. But the 240kmh speedo is certainly something cool. Notice it also has the AE92 SX front spoiler lip and the front grille had a twincam 16 decal. [Updated on: Mon, 22 September 2003 13:16] [Report message to a moderator]

http://www.planetmars.co.za/forums/index.php?showt opic=6242&st=0 Here's a thread from a South African forum that discusses this car and has a pic of it. There's also a clown who said this. I couldn't stop laughing "I doubt the 1.6 can make 95Kw if it is STD or even a few mods. If a mechanic told you this I would question his motives."

Probably is. I saw a few more over the last two days. Holden rebadged some as nova's. You all should know the one I mean now.

But onto the car in the topic, funnily enough, I got behind a white one of those yesterday through Aspley. I kid you not, I sat behind it for quite a while sizing it up, and yep, it was one of those boxy 'rolla gli exec's. Smile

My friend was driving his brothers Ae92 Sprinter around for a while, only one I've ever seen. It was exactly the same as an AE92 Seca SX, 'cept for a few different badges and stickers, and the Toyota logo was different. What country did these come from? [Report message to a moderator]
