That thing had well over 300k km back in 07’ too.
The car I mastered manual in was a 92’ corolla too.. so corollas somehow are a part of my life…. (Plus the two ae86s I’ve owned)
Probably most of us here on the board touched a corolla or driven one at some point.

Probably most of us here on the board touched a corolla or driven one at some point. | I seem to remember them in silver or gold. Rarely do I see the dark green or black like yours! Even had the thrill of enjoying a gold one as a courtesy car before

Then your Audi Allroad can get close to Golf R Estate numbers with a tune on yours ... but at 261hp ... that's plenty as is! Great choice.

Great choice. | Once the warranty is over I will look into a tune, but right now the 2021 engine with the 12V MHEV hasn't been cracked by the tuners just yet so there's nothing available yet anyways.

And here’s a couple pics of the ol analog toy

I'm shocked Honda hasn't bothered adding AWD to the Accord/Civic. So much better than an HRV...

Originally Posted by roastpuff No one would buy Acura if Honda added AWD to the Accord.

The floor of the Civic is quite flat, in order for them to do this they would need to tweak it quite a bit. Quote:
