Nuje, the Nova of that vintage was not a rebadged Corolla, it was technically a rebadged Sprinter. It was born from the fact that Toyota has standalone Corolla-only dealers in various markets, and the "Corolla" is a whole sub-line of Toyotas, and thus only Corolla dealers can sell them, but not just any Toyota dealer. The non-Corolla Toyota dealers instead sold a car called the Sprinter.
Sort of like here where non-Chevrolet GM dealers (Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick, etc.) sold GMC trucks instead. Which were *mostly* the same exact thing.
We never had that sort of thing here, as Toyota really never marketed the Corolla like that. Early Tercels were briefly sold here as "Corolla Tercels" but that badge went away pretty quickly. It remained that way in many other markets, though, along with other models like the Matrix, which we had as its own model, but in other markets they were sold through Corolla dealers as the "Corolla Matrix". Some of the models sold here as Scions were also sold as "Corolla - XXXX" there, too.
They also have a sub-line of Land Cruisers. We've only ever gotten one of those available here at any one given time (at a Toyota dealership), but there have been (and still are) a bunch of different trucks sold as Land Cruisers. The Cygnus (which we DID get, but not called that), the Prado (we got as the Lexus GX) and others.
