      @@FinalDriveshow In Canada here. Total price $28,287.47 CAD. I added a few dealer add on options. Undercoating and paint protection with extended warranty. Love the car. Speedometer issue that you mentioned is not an issue because kilometres are used on the outwards face of the dial.
      I like the look of the 2019 better that the 2020 model.
      You should review the 2019 Hatchback with the new 2.0L. Both Direct and Port Fuel Injection with and Electric Water Pump and Thermostat.

    Bought this car and model in black 1yr ago. Really like it so far. Good review, first one to not make fun of the sport mode which does make the car come alive (for a Corolla). Black paint job blends with grill better than other colors. I get more compliments than expected! At night the blue lighting on dash and steering wheel looks great!

    Idk why u don’t like the bumper I actually like it it looks aggressive in my opinion just for a daily driver and btw someone make a video on doing a muffler delete and a resonator delete I wanna know how it sound like cause I’m not risking it to sound like a Honda

    • @FinalDriveshow
      @FinalDriveshow  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It definitely looks aggressive, but Toyota could have been a bit more subtle about it. A resonator and muffler delete will definitely alter the sound as the resonator removes specific sound waves and the muffler simply lessens sound level. There should be plenty of vids on TH-cam with that mod.

      @@FinalDriveshow Well is part of the "designed to fail as soon as possible" scheme so that they can rob you with another new car. Anyways, I'm not a new car buyer. I always buy good used cars that are like 5 to 6 years old, and you guessed it, with a good old regular AT or manual one. Who cares about a few more miles per gallon if the damn thing blows up in like 5 years or less (those CVT things). Unless you change your vehicle often I guess, but you get screwed over again with the trade in and buying a new car process. I hate dealers and their scams. They don't really like me either because I play hard ball. But I don't care about their feelings.
