vs GR Corolla

[Kyofu]

Im confused on whether i like it or not.

Yeah I wouldn't say I "like" it, but I don't "hate" it either. It's better than the 10th gen Si vacuum cleaner exhaust.

Either way, I'm sure there will be an aftermarket fix for those who can't live with it. I'm thinking 2 larger outer exhausts and the middle bumper hole can be retrofitted for a tow hook.

Not a HOT lap, more like a warmish lap, and his steering grip position is all over the place, but you can get a good idea of the drivetrain, transmission and the noise it makes from a driver's POV.

His shuffling makes me nervous.

I like how they broke down the trim levels. Also feels like they left room for mid model refresh.

Looks like price leak was accurate if you add the $1095 destination fee. Packages are also alot cheaper than I thought they would be.

$1180 Performance package adds the Torsen differentials and larger brakes
$770 Technology package adds the JBL audio system and wireless smartphone charger
$500 Cold Weather package adds heated front seats and a heated steering wheel

$39,445 for a fully loaded Core model including destination is not bad.

Crank these out and flood the market. Toyota got chips.

Hope everyone flocks to these so I can get an FL5.

Does nothing for me. Looks cheap and ugly. Doors with tacked-on plastic bits? No thank you.

Need to do a reverse propaganda campaign to hype up the GRC, so people forgo their FL5 waitlist spot. Every time someone asks for buying advice between the GRC and the FL5, play up the importance and superiority of AWD.

Unfortunately for us, they are only making just north of 7,000 this model year. Dunno if I’d call that a flood, more like a trickle.

Even though I don't like FK8's design that much, I can't say it's not cohesive. GRC's rear doors literally have extra bits glued to them to match the rear fender lines. At least Honda just left the doors alone.

True, I remember people saying they should have added a piece to the door to make it look more flush.
Enter the aftermarket. I dont hate it. Varis do something similar
