But dat 4-speed automatic transmission and drum brakes in most models.. 
They could have at least updated that a bit and made it the same across the board.. why not 6AT/6MT and four wheel disc brakes for all the models?

Will the average c-lai in Richmond know the difference between 4 speed and 6 speed?

Saw a white S model today. Actually looked pretty sharp with the dark wheels and HID's. Now if only they came up with a better motor and transmission. Making progress i guess.

saw one like this just now: 
couldn't shake the feeling that i've seen those wheels before and then i remembered this: 
toyota recycling at it's worst.
if you have forgotten or don't know the lexus hs250... don't worry you're not alone.

As soon as I saw that white Corolla, the first thing that popped into my mind was 'Jetta'.

... i'm still at a loss as to how toyota took something as nice as the avensis and then beat it with an ugly stick to get the hs250. (useless trivia: the hs250 is still being sold in japan but it now has that fugly lexus corporate grille)

Looks alright. I think the 2012/2013 look better. Interior wise somethings are better some are not. But really you cant go wrong all electronic options, heated seats and a car that needs an oil change every 10,000-15,000kms and will give you little to no problems that costs 18-20k

It would be nice to have even at 5 speed auto

3.7L/100km combined (FWD)
4.0L/100km combined (4WD)
0.66L Turbo 3cyl, 64hp, 76lb-ft
4.3L/100km combined (FWD)
4.5L/100km combined (4WD)  | |

Yes Timpo because people want to drive 60 horsepower cars in North America that can barely hit 100km/h... 
The only thing the new Corolla has going for it is really just standard LED headlights, first and only in its class, but really it doesn't really matter...
