What makes a Toyota GR Corolla special?

[@corglass]

AWD, manual handbrake, 6speed. All great. Engine sound 😢😢😢

[@ProductReviewCars]

Tbh my phone and the soft limiter make this sound so much weaker than it does irl

[@omegasad4509]

I’ve heard one of these come into my workplace’s car park and it does actually sound quite good, while it is a small engine, it sounds quite good for what they have

[@NEMotoGuy]

@@ProductReviewCarsthere is a way around the soft limiter. You need to fully disable all safety/TCS/stability systems. Then you can rev fully to redline. Annoying, but possible.

[@vialeyrichards4244]

I need one not if I can get one, 😡 I'm gonna buy one

[@esu2537]

​@@ProductReviewCarsyou can bypass the soft limiter if you take off traction control and push the clutch all the way. You're welcome.

I just test drove one yesterday, I feel in love, it's such a driver's car, there's no gimmicks there's no bs, just you, 300hp, awd, and a manual. Super fun car on the back roads.

[@jdmbren13]

It’s really one of the shittiest rawest cars I’ve driven in years, with an unbelievable chassis, it’s amazing I’ve driven most cars on the road and this car is as unique as it grts

[@grandpa7278]

I just bought a XSE 6V Camery, did get to drive this car, was fast, but not my cup of tea. Top of line Camery was 42k, the Corolla was 62k. I wish dealer luck getting that.

I bought one and I couldn’t agree more

I'd change the suspension and make me a rally cross daily driver.

This is an honest question. I am in the market for a sporty 4door hatchback and im torn between this a 2018 focus rs in blue for 33k CAD or a 2018 golf r for 40k. These are 50k CAD currently. Do any of you have experience with these cars, i test drove the golf and loved it
