Well guys, I don't know if many of you out there know, but Mister Philthy has a tendency to love Corollas. Not just AE86s, but the standard, grocery getting, Corolla.
Perhaps it is because my first car was a Corolla, or maybe just because it is completely practical and simple. Toyota never strayed very far from their winning formula of a simple, inexpensive, reliable, economic, car.
So because the Corolla, the best selling car of all time, is slightly aging, Toyota has introduced their 10th version of this awesome car.
This impressive 10th edition obviously takes some of the front end "cuts" and "swoops" from its big brother, the Camry.
And for those of you who want a little more scoot out of your Corolla, their will be 2 engine offerings. The first is a completely adequate 1.8 Liter, 132hp @ 6000rpm and 128 lb-ft torque @ 4400rpm and the XRS model will get a 2.4 Liter, 158hp @ 6000rpm and 162 lb-ft torque @ 4000rpm.
The interior continues to remain approximately the same size as the previous model, but the trunk has increased by 3 cubic feet. The wheel base remains unchanged at 102.3 inches.
With an MSRP of just under $15,000, I am sure that this car will make its way to the hearts and garages of many consumers, globally.
