Is the DX still cool?

Postby PumpN » Thu Mar 04, 2004 11:47 am

at last a poll to answer the age old question, are ke70's still the business
there are many a tidy dx around, and many a rough example, well they are everywhere alright because they just dont die
its one of the few timeless toyota models, and well they are everywhere but are they cool? you decide!

for all the people who have been living under a rock, or a rock not next to a dumped (pun intended) dx

They're a good cheap car to run...whether they have style is another question.

why would a car maker build one when there are half a million kick arse dx's around, no one has built a car with the reputation the dx has since it was released, sales would be shit, why would you spend $20g+ on a new two door wagon when for under a grand you can get a tidy two door dx wagon :wink:

I've been wanting to get a wagon for ages but the fact that they are only 1300 would mean I couldn't use it to carry much weight, which is the only reason I want a wagon (room)

But i reckon the sedans are premo because they have a good suspension setup compared to the wagon with poo's leaf springs plus they have 4 wheel disc brakes

Only thing letting them down is the lil engine :roll:
