All COROLLAS looks beautiful to me. I choose the 2021 Celestite color LE and the car has been working incredibly well during the 15 months I've owned with all the features included. The only thing I miss from my old Hyundai Elantra 2002, is the vision at front. Why? Because, when driving, always that I must see to the left front side and make a turn, I think that the windshield is too narrow and interfere with your vision field, so don't allow watch at the front at quick maneuvers. I haven't finished knowing my COROLLA, but I will very soon because worth it. Thank you for the video is very helpful.

I have a Dec 2019 Corolla With a Laser cut key No key fob /unlock/ lock No start stop technology. Just a plain key ignition switch. Harder to steal like that six speed😂 Manual seat adjustments. No electric seats/ heaters. Wished it had a manual parking brake, instead of Electric Parking Brake. I'm the old school type😂 I love it. Great MPG. Decent acceleration. Bought it from a Jeep Dodge Dealership. Had 8976 miles for $16,000 I put an extra "Portfolio" bumper to bumper 6yr. 72 k Warrantee for $2100 which is transferrable. Covers everything but pads tune ups oil changes, muffler. No worries about expensive repairs. It seems to be a special fleet order.(Or Maybe L Trim) Possibly car rental. So it was broke in with a few Italian tune ups😂😂 Update it's an LE apparently a repo. That had the remote lost, $340 to replace and program a new remote FOB. at Toyota. ACE Hardware will also do this cheaper but the lost remote is $168 to replace. It also has Economy and Normal Mode settings on the steering wheel. It has awesome acceleration in Normal mode.👍

@SquidDaddyy... you are wrong (as usual). There arent $450 worth of 'upgrades' between the two models. At $3/gal (worst case scenario), $450 buys you 150 gallons of gasoline that fuels a 35MPG Corolla. That is approximately 6 months worth of driving at a 12,000 miles/year rate. That said, do you want to buy my Corolla LE?

@HR-wd6cw 3 жыл бұрын

I would buy the LE. I mean $450 price difference is about 2 extra car payments. If there's one thing I learned over the past 10-20 years in buying cars, if you're buying one, buy it how you want it. Unless you're really strapped for cash, buy it how you want it (ie. get cruise control, power windows, keyless entry, etc). I do have to say that for a $450 price difference, Toyota should just drop the L and keep the LE model as the "base" model. I mean to remove the digital temperature read-out and not give it remote keyless entry (both of which are easy and cheap things to include that might cost Toyota another $100 combined) makes no sense to me. It's like they designed the LE and then gimped it to make the L, so they could charge slightly less. In this case, just get the LE.

@ritardstrength5169 3 жыл бұрын

In researching the Corolla to possibly buy a 2021 model, I learned that there are two types of white paint available: Super White and “Fleet White”. Retail customers can’t request Fleet White, but presumably bulk purchasers can. I figure the L is made for those fleets: delivery workers, home health, beer and wine reps, etc. In fact, I bet it only comes with a touchscreen stereo because the screen is a requirement for the backup camera.
