It's too bad Toyota isn't doing the same to make their Corolla drive more like an 86. And the irony is the original AE86 was a Corolla.
Drive one and let me know if you agree. Hers has the CVT but I did test drive a MT and it was a blast. The common complaint of "not enough hp" will probably come up from some but the car is built as a fun grocery getter. They will address the HP (I had no issues with it) when they use the platform for the performance versions.


It is funny because one of the complaints on the Impreza forum is that the steering is too sensitive. Most there seem to think that you should have to force the car to turn.
