I want to point out, while fueleconomy.gov doesn't list the specific engine differentiator for the '4A-F', option 1 does actually match this car, at least by process of elimination.

  3. 1.6L "4A-FE (FFS)" 5-spd manual - 20/26/22 MPG

Is option 1 supposed to be the 4A-F? It doesn't say....[/LIST]
All option 1 says about the engine is that it's 1.6L 4cyl FFS. All of the engines in 6th gen Corollas, including 4A-F, are 1.6L 4cyl FFS (Feedback Fuel System = O2 sensor). So there is no contradiction with Option 1 = 4A-F, and by process of elimination, that must be it. (Or else the 4A-F cars are a subset of Option 1, for all I know there may be some 2wd 4A-FE Corollas that also belong with Option 1, perhaps that is why they didn't include the specific engine differentiator.)
