Is the Toyota Corolla SE a better compact car than a 2022 Honda Civic Sport?

The Corolla has been a to sedan for Toyota for many years. The Corolla SE brings a sporty style but also big value. On the outside you will find 18in wheels, LED lighting, a unique front fascia. On the inside you will be greeted by cloth seating, 8in infotainment system, and sunroof. Under the hood is a 2.0L inline-4 that produces 169HP & is mated to a CVT transmission.

I just got my 2022 SE Corolla Nightshade at the beginning of the month. Quite disappointed I have a key and not a push button start. Also I don’t have a sunroof, but I don’t mind. That’s my biggest complaint since I couldn’t see it before buying it. But I feel there aren’t many features that should be standard in these cars such as blind spot detection or would be nice to have a HUD. Also the car is so loud and sounded like a tin can. I just got done putting sound deadening in all of the doors and trunk. It’s a little quieter, but not a ton. Also the sound was extremely bad without the jbl, so I also replaced all the speakers. If they had this car sitting on the lot when I bought it, I probably wouldn’t have bought it and would have found a different car with more features for the same price

Corolla wins for maintenance. The Corolla’s 2.0L M20A-FKS engine is easier to work on than the Civics 1.5L turbo. I keep my cars over 10 years. The Corolla will cost less in maintenance. And the IMT will make the clutch last longer in the Corolla. Civic’s engine is also rotated 180 degrees so the throttle body is on the back and hard to reach/ clean. Only issue with Corolla is the front struts are under the cowl which will take more effort to replace. Civic’s turbo engine is also direct injection only, so it will build up carbon on the intake valves like the German GTI engines and require walnut blasting to clean.

I might trade in my Journey for a Corolla if these gas prices don't go down.

[@jeffb.6642]

Trade it in even if they do go down - the Journey is kinda long in the tooth and I haven't heard any claims to fame for its reliability lol

@@jeffb.6642 🤣🤣🤣, That's nicest comment, I've seen about a Journey. I know trust me I owned it for 2 years I've already replaced the transmission. No More Mopar.

I drove my ‘02 Honda Civic LX for 18 years, just bought a new 2023 Honda Civic Touring last month. (It was definitely past time for an upgrade!) I’ve never driven a Corolla, so can only compare from riding in one or two a long time ago and looking at the design today. I definitely prefer the Civic interior. (Not sure why Toyota pulls this dash practically into your lap!) The Corolla overall felt like a cheaper build quality which I really disliked. Not sure if that’s still true though. I absolutely LOVE my new Civic Touring since it feels like a semi-luxury vehicle now. It also has the two-tone black/ivory interior. Very classy! However, I primarily value reliability and longevity in my cars which my last ‘02 Civic LX had in spades. I bought my new Civic Touring without knowing about previous oil dilution problems and possible issues with turbo engines. I’d like to get a MINIMUM of 10 years out of my Civic Touring, preferably 12-15 years (or more). I see opinions all over the map about naturally aspirated engines vs turbo engines. Guess we’ll see how long it lasts! At least I know Honda is among the best in the world at building engines.
