- čas přidán 31. 07. 2024
- We review the updated 2021 Toyota Corolla Apex, the in-between a GR performance compact, and tarted up appearance package. The reactions are mixed, however, there may be enough here to get people interested in it.
While a manual transmission is offered you better get on a list and there are other options out there for almost the same price, VW GLI, Veloster R Spec, Honda Civic Si, and a host of other used cars like Miata.

Bmw supra 🤣
Just reading the words stiff corolla rubs me the wrong way.
Corolla, but make it ✨stiff!✨
S T I F F C O R O L L A. Givin me hella RCR vibes lmao
@@802Garage Its stiffer than a 94 Celica lol
I caught that visor test there, and failed no less.
Supercar PASS
hahaha man that was good
Memes. Memes everywhere
Hilarious
I wonder how this car handles in cliche cornfield.
Toyota Corolla Apex is basically a middle-aged man wearing Yeezys.
I'm 72. It reminds of my 1974 Corolla SR5. Lots of fun.
"Toyota Corolla Apex is basically a middle-aged man wearing Yeezys."
And you decided this how? LOL! Have you ever seen one, much less being in one, yet? LOL!
@Richard Favreau Do you own a Corolla or something?
@Richard Favreau You've made a whole bunch of pro-Corolla posts on this video. Why do you love the Corolla so much?
Brad Comis lol I think he’s a corolla fanboy. 😭😭😭
While the rest of the world gets to enjoy the Yaris GR-Four, we're stuck with this crap.
We should be getting a GR Corolla in 2022 I believe.
Jaime Velazquez its nitpicky but its not the yaris, is massive and is heavier so that strung out 3 cylinder turbo will be struggling or wont have the same feeling as it would in that tiny yaris
@@jaimevelazquez765 They could call it the GoRolla. 😄 (And the YaGRis ... at least the gray version.)
JustAnotherHouseCat Well the current corolla isn’t that much heavier than the Yarris GR. The Corolla weighs 3,060 lbs and the Yarris is about 2,800 lbs so I don’t think it’ll be that much different in performance
It's our fault for not buying subcompacts like the rest of the planet and just buying big ass trucks and SUV's
Nothing says hitting the apex like a CVT
And a droning harsh 4-banger thrashing its Euro4 emissions heart out.
@@admiralstiffplank I'm sure that technology directly reflects a CVT in an $18k economy car.
technically the ct gives apex gear ratios lol
This is a Lexus grade CVT with a physical first gear. Yes, the 2021 Lexus UX 200 has the same CVT. I would much rather have this CVT than a harsh shifting DCT.
@@braetonwilson4296 Same. I’d rather have a well designed, responsive CVT then a jerky unreliable DCT
The cop car at 7:07 scared him and he slowed down hard LOL
I think the cop has already a prey.
He only slowed down because he was at a turn…
This car looks like an overpriced sneaker
😂😂😂😂😂💯
Raptor.Tremor The don’t buy one, buy a Ford Focus. Oh wait, Ford doesn’t make those anymore since the Corolla outsold that garbage mobile by a ratio of about 10,0000 to 1.
@@speakingtruths4215 I wouldn't buy either of them.
Speaking Truths for a guy named “speaking truths” you sure are prone to fallacious reasoning.
1) saying this is overpriced isn’t praising the Ford Focus, so your vituperative comment is irrelevant.
2) Saying this trim is overpriced isn’t a condemnation of the corolla more broadly.
@@speakingtruths4215 Why so salty? lol
Strong points about the pricing structure - this just feels more like an extra trim package with some stuff that tries to help things... But it's still at the end of the day a Toyota Corolla. If you're spending this kind of money on a compact car you more than likely want something more fun than this like the Honda/Hyundai/VW fun car variants. Or something that feels more luxurious, like a Mazda 3.
With the new Mazda 3 turbo and AWD hatch for only a little more, it’s hard to see what toyota is even trying sell. If you want something with more room for modification, get an SI or Veloster. It just doesn’t make sense and Toyota is falling behind.
@@Cozmozmoz I feel like the Si is the easiest car to deal with modifying I'd be kinda worried about the N boi. Hopefully Mazda can sell enough to keep real automatics around haha never thought I'd say that while my only 2 cars are stick.
@@RCXDerp I'd be worried about the N as well, but at least it has options for enthusiasts. Compared to the gen4 mazda 3, which wasn't built with that in mind at all really, haha. However, I see the market Mazda is trying to carve with the new gen4/ gen4 turbo/ awd, and it's sort of the market I'm in at my current stage of life. I see where Honda is keeping its place for enthusiasts even though they really need to update their offerings and current reliability. I have absolutely no idea what Toyota is trying to achieve right now. They update exteriors to look radical, but continue to make really poor interior choices in material and outdated design. They add power, but continue to make their cars couches on wheels that feel unbalanced outside driving the highway. I don't think they have a clear trajectory other than making their cars appear "sportier and more attractive."
This car doesn't make sense on two main counts.
1. The price, @miles traysandor is correct.
2. The CVT, that nurfs any possible "fun", real first gear or not.
300+WHP '19 GLI here for less than 24k OTD and after mods...
Toyota is charging for reliability now. They’ve given up competing.
It cost the same as the new GTI... How anyone could buy this over the GTI is beyond me.
Exactly
They've rested on their laurels and they're not even pretending.
@@pnourani Right? or the new gen Mazda3. More power, sporty driving, nicer interior, similar price. Mind boggling
Perry people who value their own sanity will avoid the GTI
1st time Corolla and stiffening have ever been used together in a sentence.
Unfortunately not in a way I would recommend at all. It’s too bland.
Not true the ae92 and 101 fxgt corollas are hot hatchbacks they are very fun to drive lightweight and powerful
no the 9th gen is stiff too
*That actually looks pretty decent. Could use some more power for that kind of price, though*
Considering the 4Runner has a drivetrain and gas mileage from 1986, I wouldn’t hold my breath.
@@DanUtley I get 19mpg on my lifted 2013 4runner with Toyo AT3 tires. Mileage isn't that bad 😉
Car INTERIOR Hahaha. You’re looking for more power from a Corolla? Not happening.
Like 200 would have been nice maybe 250.
Hopefully that 257hp GR Corolla gets to production. 🤞
8:32 VISOR TEST
@8:34 visor test....royalty payment due to The Straightpipes!
Always excited to see an upload from you guys! The way you do your car reviews is truly unique and is always executed flawlessly.
If you like boxing without gloves, riding mountain bike trails on a rigid frame, eating walnuts with the shell, and surgery without anesthesia, this is the car for you! #feeleverything #prettysurethatsloganisalreadytakenbyacontraceptivecompany
i had to take my own time to read that second hashtag
Hit by a parked car, tripped over a cordless phone
The man, the myth, the legend
😆
I wonder if there's rev hang?
You’ll be hitting the Apex in the Starbucks drive thru!
Literally, with the wheels according to the corollas i see
“If it’s just Jack and Mr. Goose, you’re lustin’ for Turbowski” -Mr. Goose, 2020
@druss999 what he did????
druss999 yes, please do tell!!
We aren't allowed to mention that name around here
I heard that SavageGeese wanted Turbowski to have his baby, when he refused, Savage kicked him off his channel.
Loving the Initial D easter egg you've just thrown there.
You guys passed me on the I-15 freeway going into VEGAS today and I didn't know who you were until I saw this video!!! Kudos!!
I always enjoy your honest and informative reviews. I love Corollas and drive a 2015 Corolla S. Thanks and have a wonderful day.
marketing cash grab trim level.
yea well thats capitalism, foo and you dont complain about that. what are people willing to pay. you can haggle the dealer to a lower price too.
Absolutely. A way that Toyota can attempt to sell a Corolla for $30k. I love my Corolla but not for $30k.
@@bluesky5384 if I can find the apex for 20k.new is it a good deal?
@@rx3la I'm no expert but I'd think so considering that's considerably lower for what it's going for sticker.
I appreciate that you review a selection of vehicles from basic to extreme. Frankly, I'm more interested in the basic vehicle reviews, but it is fun to watch the more esoteric vehicle reviews too.
“Esoteric?” Lmao
Mondays are bearable now at least
8:31 and the visor doesn't even pass the test, throw the car away. For $30k, and what you're getting, I can only see the hardcore enthusiasts considering this, but even then, it's not different enough from other corolla's for me to really see why Toyota would make this. A good review as always!
Who's hardcore and wants a CVT? Totally missed the mark
It’s a ripoff as most Toyota’s are. They assume people want to buy it because they have a reputation or quality. But I don’t like the design or dynamics
Kevin Le no kidding 30k for this trash. Better off with an SI. Toyota is dead when it comes to real enthusiasts and this is only raising the price of JDM imports. Chasers jzx100 soarers and supras
There's a sliding tab on that visor but for some unknown reason he didn't use it...
You might as well just buy the Toyota 86. This APEX Corolla is stupid as hell.
These new corolla’s look really good. They just need a civic SI type of performance level trim.
That’s just it Toyota is charging 29kdollars for a 160hp lol wtf.. u can buy a civic si for 26k loaded up with a quick turbo motor 205hp
All toyota's look like fridge's. nothing looks good. The last good Toyota's were made in the 90's
A turbo 4 with 200hp would be fantastic option 👍
d1zguy hey hey hey they made the mr2 for like 2 years into the 2000s technically
@Richard Favreau you dont see it when you drive it. The Corolla doesn't look good at all anyway
1:10 Initial D soundtrack reference. 😂
Another at 4:36
God the scenery of the test drives are so under appreciated!!!!
you guys are brilliant. love the detailed info about these cars
Love the videos! Keep up the good work
7:09 - 5-0 are on the Savage’s tail! Run!
Thank you for the graphic showing the transmission! We have a CVT Outback, DSG Sportwagen, and 6-sp manual Type R. Good to see how the CVT works (with a real 1st gear no less). Great work.
As Always Another superior Review Mark,And Jack No B/S Straight to the point All The Best Evan From New City,NY in Rockland County
Thought you were about to grace us with another WRX-esque intro
It's ironic because this thing almost costs as much as the base trim WRX...
I'm glad you showed this car some love Mark. It's sad that these "sporty" little 4 cylinder naturally aspirated engine cars with manual transmissions are becoming obsolete. I'd rather buy one of those that a civic with a turbo any day.
You can still get a 2L NA Civic manual still those are a good reliable car if you need to put 200k on something.
For $21k you can get a Civic Sport sedan. NA engine. VTEC. Manual transmission. I have one. It's a blast.
Your missing out on the Civic Sport with the 1.5. Much better then this car
You guys are awesome. I think every video needs a tiny bit of colorful language and some silliness. I think that is what sets you guys apart.
Your titles never disappoint.
Initial D bumper sticker would have added 50HP
Only 120 manuals?! Who tf do you think is gonna be buying sport Corollas?! Manual drivers!!
EXACTLY!
Intro made this car actually look good. Nice job.
The final thoughts is the best part of this video .... flavors broooo.
Just get an XSE hatchback with a manual and call it a day
Ryad Hasan Ahmed SE-upgrade manual is plenty. This one is such a POS
Recently had a Acura ILX Apex as a loaner. The lag was awful upon acceleration.
They gimped the back seat on the hatch though
@@officialyasir what's up with the back seat?
owen k it’s much smaller than the hatchback
This thing is way, way, way, way, way, way, way, did I say way, way, way, way, too expensive!
@Richard Favreau having money in the bank does not make a wise person foolish with it. Wake up little snoozy.
@Richard Favreau yes, Jesus is coming back very soon. All the signs are there.
@Richard Favreau yea if I'm gonna splurge to buy a car to gave fun with it sure as hell wouldn't be this. Get over it, this car isn't worth the money. Too many better cars at the price
I can see a very small number of people for whom this makes sense, but it really is overpriced. Lowered springs, summer tires, and stiffening up a few other minor bits shouldn't coat $3000+. If they were only expecting to sell a few hundred amortizing the development costs would push the price up tgat much, but this isn't going to.be a rarity and will likely be made for several years.
I kind of wonder if they've just decided to spread out the improvements over several years, as they've done with the 86's incremental improvements. Maybe the Apex will get engine improvements next year. I hope so.
Is just a corolla but they put shitty ebay spec coilovers in it from factory so it rides like a shopping cart.
This is a testament to Toyota understanding the consumer. Not everyone is looking for unbridled performance or the very most performance you can throw into an automobile and keep it under $33K. Many just want reliable, affordable fun. There is nothing that screams fun with a stock Corolla. God knows I've driven enough of them over the years. The Apex is a fantastic used option (let someone else absorb the depreciation) that for $25K, is a reliable road carver that won't end emptying your wallet each time you lift it up or open the hood.
Agree with Jack on how this car stacks within the price range. Also appreciated your perspective on another flavour offering in the market. It’s good to consider different perspectives 😎 thanks guys!
8:30 *TheStraightPipes has entered the chat.*
Waiting for that lawsuit!
He thought about testing it. I could tell.
Too expensive for what it is. It be a cool buy as a used car in 10 years.
I'd say cool to buy in 2 yrs after the initial depreciation. The problem is they will be hard to find due to the low production numbers.
Since they are limiting production of them it's gonna be a situation where even though and is over charged right now they're so rare that to gonna keep their value Especially the manual even now it's a pretty stupid trim and a pretty stupid car
love the music and cuts throughout the program!
Great Music for the intro and tracks showing on the infotainment screen. I like the design and I see new Corollas often here in Germany, most are Hybrid though and they only come as a hatchback.
Toyota is getting way too comfortable charging $30k for a 170hp Corolla with minor suspension and anesthetic mods. Hopefully the Toyota fanboys will not support this overpriced car.
I can see where they are going with the Toyota corolla GR if this is already at 30k.
@@aseeds7785 I think it's going to be really close to the Civic type R price range. If the GR Corolla doesn't sell well then toyota is gonna say well, we made a performance car but no one wanted to purchase it so it's back to hybrids, SUVs, and collaboration for their performance cars.
That's good money 🤡
Would never consider paying 30k for this.
this should be on cable tv... love this channel
Your reviews are always great . Always love how you reason on the purpose of the vehicle and not simply what you think it should be. Honestly ,some vehicles will have only certain features due to its purpose.
The corolla is the best selling sedan worldwide for the very reason you stressed... reliability. if you live a country like mine where potholes are a main feature of the roads...then you think of corolla.
The reviews are deep and we'll thought out. I'm surprised you have to keep encouraging persons to subscribe....I did on the first review I watched
He is called excusesgeese for a reason
I would love to see them make a 300hp collora trd
The only thing left to appreciate about toyota/lexus in the NA market are the LC500 and 86. Everything else is made for Uber and people who doesn't care a what they drive.
Great video 🤙🏼 Was just wondering if there was a review of the apex when your notification popped up 😂
enjoying your video thx u 🙏🏻
I'm so glad we get the GR Yaris.
I'm jealous. I really wanted that car to come to the US. Now we get an overpriced Corolla with 169hp. I have no interest in the GR Corolla either unless it has those wide fenders like the GR Yaris along with awd.
I call it the YaGRis.
I'm in the UK and I'm gonna order one soon, can't fucking wait it's the only new car I'm interested in buying
Toyota is teasing a hot hatch on the upcoming section on the website. www.toyota.com/upcoming-vehicles/gr-hot-hatch/ So GR Corolla confirmed idk.
@@nfscamilo4 Don't get your hopes up. Considering it's for the US market, I think it's gonna be a GR SUV. 😆
I bought my GTI brand new for $23k, which has substantially more performance, a substantially nicer interior, and substantially more tech. Enough said.
Damn you found a good deal on a GTI. I wanted a GTI but couldn't find one priced that low so I settled for a new GLI
Japanese cars are overpriced as hell. They coast off of their "rEliAbIlE" reputation. Nothing more.
@Richard Favreau yea but the Apex specifically is more expensive than its German counterpart. The corrola apex also has less HP and a lower quality ride and interior than its german counterpart. Sorry but id rather spend 24k on a car that is actually quick and fun to drive with a bearable interior vs a 30k corrola with a few minor modifications
@Richard Favreau ivlooked at the corrola and the interior was the cheapest thing iv ever sat in. The exterior is OK but the GLI I bought it leaps and bounds more attractive, doesn't have a shitty CVT and is much better inside. Yea its not 16k off the lot but a regular jetta would be. I admit I wouldnt buy a regular jetta but id pick an equivalent subaru or a honda over a corrola
@Richard Favreau I call the corolla cheap because compared to the jetta styling wise and interior quality wise its a piece of shit. Ill give it reliability yes but its horribly ugly to sit in and the buttons made me cringe when I used them. Id rather buy a subaru with the same quality interior as the corrola but at least it has all wheel drive.
I’m obsessed with this car and want one so bad in MT. Only 50 manual transmissions are being released in Canada. Gorgeous in the Panda colours.
I’m glad your sub count is climbing! This might be the first exciting corolla since the 86. Really wish they would make a modern BEAMS engine
Esteban T. With FWD? Toyota started going down hill in the name of profits since the ae111. FWD is just cheaper to make and package. Main reason why they stopped rwd cars and they still don’t care to create a competitive rwd platform. I’d much rather pay 20k for a real ae86 trueno over this trash
Esteban T. the Corolla XRS from the mid 2000s would like to have a word with you
Alex
Oh yeah the 06 corolla sport. That was a nice car. It went very unnoticed
d1zguy
Yeah that’s all true. The preference over FWD is their slogan of safety+ all your reasons.
Too bad they won’t even try an AWD special limited edition with 200hp range
You’re right I’d rather build my own for $20k too
I like how this looks a lot but I still prefer the hatch I got the all black 6 speed se recently for under 20k and I love it for daily driving!
How is the back seat?
For the love of GOD, Toyota, please give the Corolla the 2.0t from your Lexus brand.
I was epically disappointed by that engine. I'm sure it has more zoot than this, but it's definitely not impressive, at least not lugging the IS chassis around.
I would prefer rwd with a manual transmission
It's Toyota; they're not the type to take the extra step.
@@jhelmsing dude the engine in the corolla apex is pathetic, like 169 hp for 3000ish lbs (~1400kg) is sad in a world with the si and veloster turbo (and even new Mazda 3 for a more lux less sport buy). The 2.0t from the lexus would be a different beast in the lil corolla than it is in the old heavy IS. This car dissapoints me, but I have hope with the 86 refresh rumored and the supra, that Toyota will at least ignore enthusiasts a little less. Either that or the Koreans and Honda will keep those sales with the excellant civic and veloster.
@@m1l3s27 I get it. I just think Toyota overall has moved steadily away from the enthusiast realm. They (like BMW) are slapping F-sport and TRD badges on SUV's and trucks, putting TRD badges and appearance packages on lukewarm Camrys, refuse to put an actual powerplant in the 86, and sell a rebadged BMW as a Supra now. They're not at all capable of making a stirring driver's car at this point, and like most of their other engines, that turbo I4 is near the bottom of the pile in terms of actual performance. They need to quit phoning it in with these half baked efforts or just commit fully to making economical reliable commuter cars and forget whatever sporty aspirations they have. They're suffering from an identity crisis.
Can’t wait till you do a review on the Mazda 3 turbo. Major game changer!
That physical first gear is a brilliant idea. Perfect compromise between the usability of an automatic and the fuel efficiency of a CVT.
I drove an 09 Audi A4 with a CVT and it was a nightmare off the line. Half the time the CVT would lag and then jump and make the tires chirp.
Never felt confident accelerating from a stop or turning left at a green light with oncoming traffic but it was perfectly usable and responsive after it got going. This physical first gear makes it so that’s no longer an issue. Really smart engineering.
It’s the only reason why I bought this car. I originally wanted a Camry because of the conventional auto (I dislike regular CVTs). I test drove a Corolla with this CVT and liked it a lot , feels much more like an automatic than a CVT.
Sounds like the CVT still has fake shift points though, CVT fail...
What's the recommended Continental tire for this car and what's the final Savagegeese score?
Lol. At least it's not a money pit!
A modern aspect ratio would bring this channel to a higher level.
Great looks.
I would, without a doubt, take the Forte GT over this thing. BUT I did see this car at dusk with just the drl's on and it looked absolutely sweet!
I’ll take a GLI for sedans at this $$. Trying to steal a punch above its class.
I like how you guys don't hold back your opinions 👍
I see you have the right soundtrack for that car.
4:37: "It's old school" I think this is more than you guys realize. The center stack button layout and tactile feel are like that from 80's electronics. When I use the radio it just brings me back to old walkmans and handheld electronic toys. I don't mean this derisively, but the style is really bringing it back to that era.
Speaking of: the tactile feel of the steering wheel buttons in this generation is meh. There's hardly any button travel, and it just bottoms out when you press a button. Of the Civic, Impreza and Mazda3 I've tried, the Toyota has the cheapest feeling in this regards.
The instrument cluster looks straight outta 2009 wtf Toyota.
Meanwhile it will last until 2090
Seems like the cluster used is out of a lower trim, like an LE. Higher end models have a nicer looking cluster, but I think the reason they stuck to the lower trim one was because it’s something that would be appealing to people buying a more sporty focused model. I think the cluster looks nice, it would be really suited if the car was a manual. It would annoy me if I was driving a manual with a digital gauge. If you’re getting an auto I guess you’d be disappointed, but maybe you should get something else to begin with.
It'll last longer than your car
Its so weird seeing you drive on these backroads knowing this is basically as good as it gets for roads near Chicago Burbs 🤣 Hi from Lincolnshire
Patiently waiting for the GR Corolla.
I’ve reviewed 3 Corollas so far and I’m sure this is about 15% more sporty than the others. It’s got a very good chassis, snd not much power.
Hello rev match! :D how are you?
99_Fiαt_Multiplα Doing ok!
Richard Favreau Well ok then! 😅
Why in the hell would you pay $30K for this when you can get a Veloster N for that?
Gary Crispin 🤷🏾♂️because it'll probably last for 30 years or you hate going to the mechanic💁🏾♂️
A H All the excitement of driving a Corolla for 30 years. No thanks lol.
Although, in a manual variant it probably would be sufficiently fun for all those years.
@@AH-bm4ts You could get a Mazda3 fully loaded for the same price, be nearly as reliable/hassle free, and have a significantly better car across the board.
Because #toyotafanboys. They'll eat up anything Toyota.
I'd like to drive a car for more than 20k mi before doing the engine. There are videos of people driving the N off the lot and the engine throws a rod.
(yes the actual average for failure 60k mi, but starts making noise around 23k mi.)
when is the last time you heard of a Toyota having a engine-related problem? last one I can think of is the gas pedal thing in like 2010, and was basically a floor mat problem, OH NO.
Never buy KDM. its just not worth it.
Good video wish you had the 6spd manual the car would come alive with that transmission
APEX gives me nostalgia to Need For Speed Underground 2, Corolla AE86. I burned a permanent speedometer outline into my parents TV from playing that game so much.
200 Hp/200 lb ft. torque figures are the sweet spot for small lightweight sedans.
zoom zoom
For $29,000, I can have three vantastic cars for that.
Spot on about the next generation of car enthusiasts not being into manuals. There are more WRX guys at my school who rebadged Imprezas because they preferred the CVT to a 6-speed.
Considering how the current 86 is the spiritual successor to the original AE86, applying an APEX trim to that car would have been more appropriate. But people buy the Corolla, not the 86, so I (kinda) see why they did it. Wonderful visor test by the way :)
Why would anyone buy this over the competition. Id take an SI over this any day
No fake engine noise. Smaller size.
The new GTI and Mazda 3 hatch are the same price. You have to be stupid to buy this over those.
@@JRZ67 Fair enough.
an XSE manuals can be had for low $20s and no rev hang.
I feel like the SI is not worth it if you can get an ex with a manual and the type R is only 10k more, might as well pay the extra 10k for 100+ hp and less value depreciation
I have the XSE trim of this car. It’s actually very good in pretty much every aspect. For what it is at least. Only complaint is the paint is thin, should be a better motor / different transmission option for the XSE.
Another level of review we're almost not getting anywhere else. Just disappointed with the sneakers not being Adike or Nididas, but I guess life can be tough sometimes.
Thanks for expressing some positive opinions of the Toyota Corolla Apex. With respect to handling, I am glad Toyota came up with a Corolla that might be considered a 4 door front drive interpretation of a Toyota 86.
As an Si owner I'd probably still take the 2L NA civic manual with no adaptive shocks over this sad boi. I wish Toyota made something appealing literally had 0 mechanical problems on my 2000 camry.
TRD Camry V6.
The new KIA Forte GT looks better and is less expensive than this.
But it’s a Kia, the corolla will outlive the Kia Atleast 10x
eVerProductions1 I agree more or less but it’s all relative I guess if you wanna drive the same Toyota forever or not
Richard Favreau I respectfully disagree
Richard Favreau def. and I totally agree about turbos being less reliable over time. I used to love them but now I prefer naturally aspired. I think the Forte GT is personally awesome looking and packed super nice for the money. Toyota has an amazing reputation for quality. I’ve never driven / had one tho
Smile which problem bro?
@savagegeese consistently has the best music in the car review world
Love the front bumper
$30k 😬 Same price I paid for my 2019 RAV4 XSE hybrid here in Canada!
That is a very good deal
I had a corolla hatch and the insurance was more than my wrx. $800 a year for my wrx and the corolla was like $1300
@@Trex6767 Thats forked up man, the only reason I stay away from WRXs and Zs are the insurance.
in some countries cars are just ridiculous cheap, 30k for a luxury specced rav4 that like insanely cheap. Almost for free. You know what a specced out rav4 hybrid costs in the Netherlands? 57000 USD. medium specced corolla hybrid in the netherlands? 35000 USD . Its ridiculous and the reason why everyone here drives 10 year old cars.
@Richard Favreau I paid $30k USD for my RAV4 hybrid XSE in Canada. I paid $39,300 CAD all in for it.
I would opt for the Elantra N-line in 2021
Now we just need the full on GR Corolla!
Little Beings by William Claeson !!!!! Nice jazz choice !!!! Jazz + Corolla Apex = EXPLOSIVE COMBOOOOOOO
My '19 XSE Camry was 24,500 OTD... WTF 29k for a corolla?
GLI destroys this...chocolate addicts need not consider this
GLI destroys itself...literally. The engine will blow before you can say “reliable”.
hey guys great review as always, stuck between choosing an Elantra ultimate 2021 or corolla SE 2021, which one do you guys recommend?
Reminds me of my corolla XRS. Came out in 2005-2006. Funny cause the XRS was half an inch lower than regular CE, LE, S trim corollas. Also 5,000ish XRS’s were made. These two also have a 6 speed manual trans.
