Been in a Corolla S for nearly a month and a half. Never owned a Toyota before. I like! I spent the last year test driving many different cars. All have been good and many that I like. I was never in a hurry to buy a car so I gave it time. last Aug I spied a TCUV 2013 Toyota Corolla S on the lot of the local dealer. I have never had anything bad to say about late model Corollas except the 4 speed auto. In the last year of test driving I did not test drive a Corolla as i was predudice against them by the press and the aut trans (did however test drive a Prius, Prius V and Camry hybrid). I had made up my mind I was going to go back to a manual transmission car and when I saw the Corolla was a manual and it was the S (IMO much better looking than the CE or LE) I fell hard for it. It is white with tinted windows (looks good), has the moon roof package wich here in Canada brings smart key with pushbutton start. I am impressed with the gas mileage I am getting so far (that with a lower payment is a win in my book). I have always like the look of the S in the 10.5 gen and am happy with my purchase. I like the interior as it is simple and straight forward. EPS is something to get used to but on the whole have no issues with it. Don't feel I am missing anything from the 2014 as I could not get one with the features I have for the price and even tho it was sold used it only had 57xxkms on it so it is practically brand new.
