2009 Corolla S3?
I just found these pictures. It's said 2009 Corolla S3 will loaded with 2.4 I4 engine and sports suspension, etc.
Is it true?

Those rims also have to go for another reason. If this is going to be a high-performance car (or at least semi-high-performance) and driven fairly hard, those wheels don't look to me like they have enough space for air to get in and cool the rotors...........the spokes are too thick and the holes between them are too small. That could lead to warped rotors, overheated brake fluid, and other problems. The spokes, being reverse-triangular, are also poorly shaped for structural integrity at the point where they join the hub.

I doubt they will turbo it unless they do what they did with the Scion TC and offer a supercharger for it through the dealership. Im assuming it is a similar motor that the TC has so. Overall its alot nicer than the previous Corolla.
