@@ape_man504 I still have my Corolla and it's only grown on me more. I put a strut tower bar on it to stiffen the front end and it handles much better now, along with some of the steering slop of the electric steering now being gone. It goes well with the 24 mm rear sway bar I put on the rear, too. I put a new stereo in it that woke up the factory speakers and I'm investing in getting it repainted eventually (something I would have never done before). So far she's more of a keeper than she ever was. I didn't realize all of this until I recently got a Mustang to drive and have fun with. I had forgotten all the issue you can have with a car until I got it. Granted, it's older than the Corolla with more miles on it, and I don't know if it might have been abused or not. Still, the issues are a good reminder of why it's important to have a good dependable car you're satisfied with.

Years ago, your first Corolla review warmed my heart, and this one warmed my soul. I know from experience that you're absolutely spot-on with this analysis. When I got my license over a decade ago, my parents said they'd buy me a car; and my first, last, and only choice was the Corolla. Six months later, when that 1999 Corolla VE got outshone by a local dealership's newspaper ad, I upgraded...to a 2001 Corolla LE. (I just wanted power windows.) Since then, I've added 120,000 miles to Corolla 2's original 25k and driven up and down the East coast (Florida to Maine) maybe four times now. And when I finally run her into the dirt, my next car is either gonna be another Corolla, or a Mazda Miata. (The Miata would be your fault.) Meanwhile, my little brother managed to literally explode two Celica GT-S's (one engine and one transmission) before seeing the light and getting an old Camry. Indeed, first cars should save you money. A $7500 used car, paid in full, driven for 14 years, mere peanuts for registration, and dirt cheap maintenance? Yes, please. In fact, I'll have another.

So I thought I'd chime in, first time comment, long-time watcher, love the content. I actually ended up sinking on a 2019 Toyota 86 GT for my first car (realizing that it probably wasn't the most cost-effective choice, but considering that after learning on a 2005 Sienna and a 2018 Ford Edge, anything was better, and my job made it quite a bit easier to get my hands on it, so I dunked), though I had been considering an older Corolla for a while now. Biggest mistakes I made were getting it in an auto, and not waiting a few more months for the 2020 model so I didn't have to make the obligatory "let's swap out the head unit with something better" decision. After 7,500 miles in the thing (drove it off the lot with 12 miles on it), I'm inclined to believe that the decision wasn't that bad after all, it makes the commute (20 miles one way) and the traffic less of a pain in the ass, and it handles really well with all the TRD bells and whistles. Will I try and convert it to stick at some point or trade it in for one? Maybe. For now, it works as a daily, it's sporty, and it makes me happy. That's all anybody can really ask for, right?

What baffles me is highway/interstate driving because somehow this thing manages to get 35-36 mpg even though it sits at like 3200 at 80 mph. And mine is 8 years old! It used to get 40.

A marriage where she’s happy to see you even when you’re both overworked. It’s a car that will last if you choose to last with it.

It been a WHILE since I’ve been this early, started watching 5 minutes after it was uploaded

I was devastated to learn that this cute little thing does not get an engine upgrade with the S package.

The S stands for S H I T M Y P A N T I E S

I had 7 cars, not including my parents' cars back in the day, from 5.0L mustang to Grand Prix to WV to turbo this and that, but when I rented a Corolla S (2018), that car was just very driveable. Can't find a better word for it. Especially looking at the fuel gauge barely moving while driving for hours. It's a sense of being content. I'm not running, I'm not racing, I'm not shaking and not hearing any drone from the exhaust, nothing is vibrating and my check engine light isn't coming on. It's just a very driveable car. It's for drivers with the least amount of fuzz between point A to B. Still fun though, don't let the 130hp scare you away. It's enough.

[@AlejandroMaagno]

Best way to watch his videos- speed then up 2X-only then is the speed about right.

[@randomdancer9606]

This car honestly looks clean and subtle... Perfect first car for a college kid who's a car enthusiast

[@yaboirico5221]

without all the stickers yes

[@bluecollarben9836]

A stick shift in a Buick dealership is something you don’t hear everyday.

[@cameronlovesevolve]

Lol some old retired person be like "alright it was a fun few years but damn these Buick Encore so easy to get in and out of"

[@97I30T]

Ben Lucier Buick used to offer the Regal and the Verano with a stick shift a few years ago. I’m guessing that most Buick dealers rarely if ever had them on their lots though.

[@MrFallenskater56]

Yeah I own one of those regals the first 6 months of the 2012 regal gs where all 6 speeds

[@chaucerparks5941]

Your comment couldn't be more true. I've just recently seen for the first time, a 5 speed manual Buick Regal. 🤔..✌💨🏃

[@formentorvz5]

Maybe make wheels stand out a bit more, otherwise it looks literally perfect. No fake exhaust tips, no fake air vents and very subtle but exiciting in general, I love it. Sadly they never sold the Corolla like this here in Germany.

[@TristanL585]

I like these cars. I have the 2020 se with all options and those LEDs headlights omg

[@iand.1752]

Ivy watched this video a couple times. I owned a 2013 Corolla S from the week I got my license at 16 to the day it was totaled by a truck last year at 22. It was bone stock, auto, nothing fun, nothing fancy. But it was reliable. Never once had an issue with it. I never LOVED the car. It was just "an car" but sometimes I miss it. I had done a lot of growing and had some important experiences in those years. The person driving the car off the lot was not the same person stepping out after getting rear ended almost 7 years later. This gen. Corolla will always be special to me...even if they're special to nobody else.

[@robertaxel]

Damn, that owners' manual illustration warning you not to slam your head on the trunk lid, was the best laugh I've had in a long time....

[@MarcelloTheBandit]

I have to give props to this Corolla build. Yes the stickers are a bit excessive, but the mods are sound for slow car = fun car.

[@romanlegion5837]

That’s actually a really clean build and now I want a corolla to mod the same way lol

[@ThePimpPigMan]

The beginning of this video is almost as hilarious as the “Hot Dicks” portion of the Supra review

[@datboi4479]

If the shifter is underwhelming, look at Monkey Wrench Racing. Not an ad whatsoever, but you can buy anything like an entirely new shifter, new solid bushings for both the cables and the base, and short shifters. I own a 2009 Pontiac vibe, and the new shifter assembly made it feel like a brand new car. The solid bushings are also very good, but have no mercy for bad shifts, so buy those at your own discretion. Also, any weighted shift knob that weighs approximately a pound or so really gives some heft to the shifts

[@Suction_]

The new ones are much different. They used 'effort' in making them semi enjoyable to drive

[@HSMiyamoto]

After years of driving Chrysler, Dodge, Plymouth, Ford, Chevy, Oldsmobile, Mitsubishi, Renault, Mercedes and Geo, it brings a tear to my eye that Toyota and Honda are the only companies making reliable comfortable cars, which is why they sell so many, and the other companies don't get it.

[@tokuchaan4693]

Didn't even know that Corolla window sticker exists.

[@theprogwalrus597]

I feel like the sole reason they exist is because of the Corolla rally cars from the late 90s

[@RBRat3]

I own a vinyl cutter I can make anything exist for a price ;)

[@666cemetaryslut]

ebay exists

[@zebbiek5879]

I have a friend who has the automatic version, and his philosophy is that cars are for getting from A to B. It really shows how different the same car can be depending on the owner.

[@rolon-ew5kl]

I got a car that is slightly impractical as my first car.. A 1993 miata it has 2 seats and a small trunk but dam it is fun to drive.

[@ilovemanunited6179]

rolon96 2810 I might be getting a 2002 Civic Si for my graduation present and I'm so exited to have my first manual performance car!

[@666cemetaryslut]

@@ilovemanunited6179 That's probably the worst Civic Si ever made but that being said it's a pretty decent first car.

[@zephead843]

Good choice. You're a wise man.

[@rolon-ew5kl]

zep head like mr regular said in his review it is a great car for someone who wants a driver car but could only afford one car. It is true. They are cheap the only downside is since it is a classic car you might need to do maintainence and replace parts sometimes.

[@MobileAudioPro]

I own a Corolla 2013 and this is about as accurate of a review I've seen yet. Mine is an automatic but only thing I've had to replace was the valve cover seal and at 100000 miles with frequent oil changes that thing looked clean with no sludge and will give me another 200000 miles no problem. But if you want fast go else where if you want reliable this car is for you as long as you know to change the oil AND FILTER regularly and ATF also.

[@qmto]

I love this car. I think the mods were very tastefully done.

[@vicwiseman6038]

Own one, now have 153k miles on it. Just replaced the alternator and serpentine belt at my dads house. Took 1 hr. Great reliable car.

[@Max-ek6nn]

Tbh that is the nicest looking corolla ive ever seen

[@ianholmquist8492]

Which is not saying much, but still you are right.

[@Eagle_James_TKB]

The best commentary I have come across. Its so point on and with good tips; Your first car is for making you money, not robbing you of it.

[@Specmauto]

My favorite generation of the corolla.

[@spletest8977]

I'm glad my first car was a 4th gen Maxima. It was sportier than most cars and faster than most but reliable enough to get me through highschool, my first job, second job, college, and first career move. Now it's doing the same for my sister. Only mods on it are to limit body roll.

[@kunu98]

Every Kyle loves the decade old “Boobies” wrist band

[@tell302man]

Mine has 292,000 miles and has had knock sensor, rebuilt caliper, and alternator. That is it and is identical to this one minus TRD badges. I love it

[@jeffherald8542]

That's a nice looking Corolla. Nice work on that (to the owner).

[@mielvanvelzen5967]

Perfect first car tbh, not too powerfull and fwd. Super reliable and keeps its value well, super jealous.

[@joshuamoore9519]

The TRD touches in my opinion are very tasteful modifications. I bet this guy loves driving his car and it will last him forever.

[@GTChucker86]

Joshua Moore its a corolla, his grandkid’s grandkids will drive this if fossil fuel happens to still be a thing a century from now 🙄

[@truantray]

but if you speak aloud while walking around the car it's , "turd, turd, turd.."

[@KPG113]

You can count another person on that list of people who listened to your advice. I had to sell my 2014 Corolla LE for financial reasons last year (blessing in disguise because CVT's are the weakest link in those). I loved that car though, and I'm gonna buy an older model pretty soon with a stick so I can love that bulletproof sewing machine engine even more lol.

[@ILP_911]

LOL at the RSI comment, so true

[@CountryMusic527]

As a 2013 Toyota Corolla owner myself I have a few RCR lines: 2013 Toyota Corolla. The official car of letting a truck merge in front of you on Route 50 East as Ian Crawford describes bumper to bumper Bay Bridge traffic to you in vivid detail. 2013 Toyota Corolla. For the guy who refuses to take the turnpike out of principle because "295 is free"

[@chez0102]

The perfect car for having realistic dreams

[@bra1217]

Loved this review. I make way more than 100k and I purchased the Corolla S from my sister for like 4k because she never used, it was always parked. Cannot tell you how much I love that car people want to buy it from me because its like brand new. I highly advice to purchase that car if you drive a lot of miles you will be so thankful.

[@superdestrier9160]

There’s nothing to comment about this car.

[@kiangonsalves]

It's as interesting as watching the paint dry

[@ScubaSteveM45]

Corollas are the plain oatmeal of automobiles
