I like the corollas but the main problem for me was the size of the car. I think its getting a bit on the small side for what i need. mid size cars are the smallest I will go considering I take 4-5 people around regularly. But I will look into them as they seem to be well priced. Also, having good low-mid range down torque is a must.

IMO, Toyota's 3.5L V6 2GR-FE engine is so much better than the one in the Euro.
Just look at the number of models having that engine. 2005 Toyota Avalon 2006 Toyota Aurion 2006 Toyota RAV4 V6 2006 Toyota Estima V6 2007 Toyota Previa V6 2007 Toyota Tarago V6 2007 Toyota Camry V6 2007 Lexus ES 350 2007 Lexus RX 350 2008 Toyota Kluger 2008 Toyota Highlander |
