    You're view is a little jaded, and I think you're talking for a minority.

    lets just say you get what you pay for. you buy a 86, it's respectable, historic car

    you buy a ke, it's still a 4 door banger thats rusted out. never was, never will equal an 86.

    and wank factor, if you can afford good parts, why not? buying quality does more than matte black spray paint ever will.

    bout time somebody catered for the ke/71

    ok fellas lets just keep this little debate out of the thread shall we^^^^

    ether way ke and ae are both aweome cars, each to their own, and to their own budget as well

    more importantly, this new forum rocks!!!

    (for the record, my ke is totally rust free for 400$ )

    i can honestly admit, if ke and sprinters were the same price, ie ke's were 4000 or sprinters were 400, i would still buy a ke.

    I care for my 16v Ae71 plenty, love the thing as long as it keeps running right. Has very minimal rust for most 84 corollas (tang or K)
    And i still have as much respect for it as any ae86 drifter (track drifting with actual speed, not a 'i can cut sick around that 10kph corner')

    I still love the Ae86 tho, always had the love for the car, the history, the design, however most of all the engine (jap of course haha).
    So regardless as long as it has a 4age and it handles well i love it
    If you want to point it out tho, the ke70 is a designed as a family sedan based on similar floor pan to the ae86, and the ae86 is a up market model corolla with better motor (4ac ) and suspension to the ke70

    It all depends what work is done, some people can like it for the car, some people can like it for whats in it.
    If someone dangled two sets of keys in front of me, one was a ke70 with a 4age, ae86 coilover struts, and other decent setup and the other was an ae86 id choose the ke. however some people may just say, i just love the ae86 ill take that. If they were both the same in that same situation, ie a stock ae86 and a stock ae71 i would take the ae86 because i purely like the car, more
    its always fun to have something a little different tho, doesnt always mean a ke, but doesnt mean you have to jump straight into the seat of a ae86

    If i could i would have the best of both worlds

    Ae71 16v and a 20v levin coupe

    Yay!! this post is over

    Now... can we stop having ae86 drivers bash this thread
    cheers
