I’m sure when I need it it will have what I need.

After purchasing both manuals for the same car, I compared the differences. Overall they featured the same major information, the only difference in the printed material was a Spark Plug quick reference, which, if you don’t know the differences between different spark plugs, is pretty handy (even if you do it’s easy enough to look at the picture and compare the two to be sure).
Some people swear by Chilton guides, others by Haynes, personally I bought both and Haynes was about $5 cheaper and covered the same information in the same layout.
If it is between budget guides go with Haynes, if you want a more detailed book, buy the factory service manual.

Great manual. Easy to use, very through. Allows me to do much of my own work on my car.

Haynes are easy to use and simple to understand and have great spec charts for fluids and parts recommendations.

Nowhere on the product details here on Amazon does it say “Does not include information specific to XRS models”. However, turn either the Chilton or Haynes manual over to the back and in small print at the bottom it reads “Does not include information specific to XRS models”.
If you haven’t guessed, I purchased the manual because I have the XRS model. I am extremely disappointed that such a small but important detail could not have simply been placed in the product detail section here on Amazon. I have now purchased two manuals that are useless to me because of this mistake.
It even says: “Book Description: This repair manual covers all Toyota Corrla [sic] vehicles 2003 through 2005″. This, then, is a lie.
Please change the description to warn others who may try to purchase this book but own the XRS model. Thanks.
