9th gen corolla. Opinions?
36 posts and 10 images submitted.
>>
Pigfat compared to previous gens.
Get a 2000-2002 manual trans. Has the updated engine but only like 2300 lbs curb weight.
>>
>>16599784
Only one worth getting is the XRS, but they're pretty rare in the sea of Corollas.
>>
no, the 9th gen corolla has no opinions and nobody has any opinion about it. It is as interesting as a stack of drywall at a home improvement center.

Would you go up to somebody and say "hey do you have an opinion about the stack of drywall in aisle 20".
No you wouldn't because everybody knows what it is and doesn't give a shit.
With the drywall, you buy it and hang it. With the corolla you buy it and drive to where you need to go.
It, like a stack of drywall, is about the least interesting thing you can think of. It only comes up in discussion if it kills somebody do to a manufacturing defect. It does its job usually without any notice. It is perfect in being obscure. It is perfect in being so good at its job you completely forget about it as something in and of itself.
Nobody says "hey i'm going to hop in my corolla and go for a drive". They "i'm going to drive to the store, work, etc etc.

Friend bought a 2015 FZ 09 from a bike shop despite him telling them hes never been on a bike. You guys think thats a little much for a new rider? I rode it home and its got some power to it for sure.

Does he at least wear gear?

>>16599713
He won't last long.

FZ-09's have a particularly snatchy throttle so he'll probably whiskey throttle it and crash into something/loop it.

Should've got an FZ-07 desu.

Hello my br/o/thers.

Im the type of person who likes to experience different vehicles (currently on vehicle number 24).

One thing I've never had a chance to experience before is a rotary-powered vehicle.

I'm not gonna get an FD because they're too expensive. I don't want an FC or FB because of age concerns.

So that leaves me with the RX-8; Relatively new, so it has nice accessories and options. It's cheap as fuck to buy and insure, so if I don't like it, it won't make a huge dent in my wallet. It's also somewhat practical with the rear doors/seats.

Could ya'll give me a little advice on these things other than "lol apexseals" and the problems they had the first few years?

Thank you

Rx8 is the most reliable rotary you can buy unless you somehow get a showroom condition 12a or na 13b with fuck all miles on it

Did I goof /o/?

My Fusion has 70k miles on it.
I opted to just drain, rinse out, and change the transmission fluid with new fluid, rather than do a full flush with filter change.

$80 vs $300

DID I FUCKING GOOF?

Now im worried.

I'm fresh outta college and about to make a decent if average salary with no kids and manageable debt.

Do you think it is a mistake to look at something nicer than another Corolla / Civic / etc at this stage? I've driven a 2003 Corolla for at least 6 years.

Want to know if anyone has any stories, warning, or buyer's regret.

Wouldn't hurt to save up for another few months so you can pay for a used car cash instead of immediately getting into yet more debt.

It's 1988, and you're a hotshot Wall Street executive. Your boss just gave you a call, saying that you'll be spending a year doing business in Japan. As compensation for being relocated, he said that you'd be able to get any company car you want. Provided it's available in Japan and costs less than ÂĄ10 Million.

What do you get?

I'm not going to fucking check which cars were available for less than ten million yen in Japan in 1988. Where the hell would you even find this kind of information?

How can they fuck something like this up so bad?

Mustang a shit. Laughably slow and corners like 8 tons of tractor. Owning a Mustang is telling the world you're dumber than a bag of hammers and you don't know shit about cars. If you need it explained to you, show up at the track with your I-Wish-It-Was-A-Real-Shelby 'Stang and I'll demonstrate how stupid your purchase was with my M3.

Hey /o/, I was just in a car accident in my NA Miata. No pictures yet since I had to go to the hospital. Some bitch turned right into me. Broke my ankle.

I have a lawyer and I'm working on getting money, but I need recommendations for a new car now that my beloved Miata is totaled.

Unfortunately these new cars are built way too well for crashes and this is what mostly caused my I injury and totaled my car, so I was wondering if there were any newer cars under 20k that are considered safe even today but also can still be considered "fun." I mean if that cunt was driving anything other than a small Chevy Cruze, I'd probably be mangled or dead.

Tl;Dr - safest newer car (Within 5 years) under 20k that is manual and still fun to drive. Thanks
