My 10 year old Maxima with 125,000 miles will smoke you dude.

This.

No joke, saw one about a week back with the license plate 'MYSUPRA'. Definitely not delusional there...

170HP/127TQ and a 6spd manual from the 1.8L 4-banger

Toyota would be fools to reqork the Corolla - they need to kepp it as bland as boring as possible. Their owner base does not ask for a change.

127tq is abysmal. Nothing to brag about here. Does it have VTEC yo?

Hahahaha, I have no idea why, but Corollas seem to be the most insane drivers I've ever seen around here. 3/4ths of them are driving like Mario Andretti on meth, the other 1/4 of them seem like maybe they fell asleep or are about to pass out from being drunk. I avoid being near them if possible.

I had a rental 2012 Corolla with like 2k miles on it a couple weeks back. Does anyone else notice that you need to CONSTANTLY adjust the steering wheel even when you're driving in a straight line on the highway? It was very very very annoying.

Also, it had a touchscreen BT radio but no cruise control, that was quite odd.

We have some newer ones at work, 2011 or 2012, they are horrid. That is not even the word honestly. Brutal cars.
