You age is just a number. Always remember that. Don't stop dreaming and getting those things that you wanted
Just curious, do you plan on keeping both the Emira and GR Corolla or the one that comes in first?67 in May. I also have an Emira on order, which will likely replace my 05 NSX.
I somehow missed the July intro of the Emira, I think I thought they were still talking about the Evija gigacar.Just curious, do you plan on keeping both the Emira and GR Corolla or the one that comes in first?
Are you getting the FE or base Emira?
Not even close on the MPG unfortunately…the GR Yaris averages about 28mpg, GRC is heavier and more powerful so probably like 23-24 city 28-29 highway, 25ish average.36 this past March. Given possible lead time, I will wait my turn. The longer I wait the more I'll have for the car. If it ends up me waiting til fall 2023 for '24 model I'll be happy.
I have never been able to find a car that checks all the boxes. AWD, manual or automatic, hatchback, rwd possibilities, good mpg (if it's close to Yaris at least 34mpg avg) decent power, and most importantly, Toyota 100%.
I am looking forward to the purchase.
I am in same position I have ordered a dark verdant black pack sport manual cup 2, I am in my mid 50's my soon to be ex wifeI think most of you would consider me ancient for being interested in purchasing a car like the GR Corolla.
So how old are you?
I'm 58 years young.
I also have a deposit down for the upcoming Lotus Emira, which will be Lotus's last ice (internal combustion engine) powered car.😢
Just have to decide silver or blue.
Sadly they are going all electric in all their future cars.
This is the trend for all manufacturers, electric, so gents that's why this is the time to get a gas powered performance car with a proper manual transmission.
They will be obsolete before you know it.

I certainly think using less gas is better than using more gas (I actually have a Prius wagon- with a TRD rear sway bar lol), but when you do the math, depending on gas price and how much you drive, the difference between 25 and 35 is actually not huge.I have never been able to find a car that checks all the boxes.

This is the type of confirmation bias that I needed!
