Ive had this conversation with Extrashaky before and I'm pretty sure his argument was that the corolla GTS is more akin to a hot hatch (souped up economy car) vs the 86 which was built from the ground up (so to speak). I get that point, but like I said it doesn't really change the specs of the car.
