2008 Toyota Corolla LE

Quick video walk-around of my friend's car he leased. I know I make fun of it, but it is a comfortable car that gets good mileage, is reliable, and is great for people who just want something like that. From my point of view though, it is slow, wallowing, soft, cushy mess if you prefer sharp handling over ride quality. The Milan I have is much more firm, taught, and muscular feeling in terms of handling, not power.

I told my parents when we were looking for a car for me that I would rather walk than drive a Corolla. Luckily, I got a Sentra and all is good.

@mrivera1 hahaha that's awesome. I would under one condition: put a HEMI badge on the back...I know somebody whose dad did that to their Yaris. People actually believe that it has a 5.7L HEMI! LOL

I say that the best way of describing this car is that its an appliance on wheels. Its designed for the person that wants to get from point a to point b without any problems. It definitely isn't for somebody who loves cars.

@Dunoj that's exactly right lol

Blah, I've always found Toyota's appearance repulsive.

Sure there's not a middle aged woman trapped in your friend?! LMAO

[mercmilan06]

I don't know, could be!

@mrivera1

Dude, why the hell are you going off about good ride quality and cushiness? Compared to my father's ranger, the ride on this thing will knock the wind outa ya. You want to talk about a soft, wallowy car, talk about an old Buick or Olds.

I'll agree for sure that this thing isn't sharp and direct.

The interior is too hard and can be popped out in various places, and that goddamn buzzy engine, whenever i drive my cousin's 2006 i am sure not to take it past 4K.

Fuel efficient and reliable though.

@mrivera1 haters gotta hate

@gusherb94 My first car was a Ford Pinto also. I bought it in 1974 but I think it was actually a year or 2 old. Kept it for 6 years. Actually a pretty nice car.

It's 9th generation.

[hentaiseeker]

Yep. Supposedly Toyota went full ham on the 2009-11 models. They make the interior look like a rice version of a Hyundai.

[divinegod102]

Good car, looks fairly good but the driver's seat is way too uncomfortable and there's nothing much you can do to adjust it to fit you well.

[xoquixxoqafxo]

I believe this is the 9th generation, but its soo much better on the inside than the current model. Still boring but I've always wanted to drive an 05-06 XRS model lol
