^ What he said. Granted the new Corolla S does look a lot sportier than the older ones the drive is definitely going to be very boring. However, you will have a usable back seat, a more comfortable ride and better fuel economy.

Did you get a manual? If so you could still make it feel sporty by adding a few upgrades here and there.

I've owned several Weathertech products in the past and I've owned mats similar to that of the aftermarket FRS mats I have now. If you need a mat that is molded to the entire floor and has bolsters on the sides to catch tons of water/snow, then go with the weathertech's. Honestly though, I prefer the texture and look of these FRS aftermarket mats. They look really nice and they use the factory snaps. I prefer them over the weathertech's but it all boils down to personal preference.

My truck is my fun car. The corolla is specifically a commuter so boring comfortable is what I wanted. This car will get windows tinted and if OEM Audio ever releases anything that is the extent of mods.
