It’s really hard to choose between SE and Apex here. I’m not crazy about black wheels. I’m particular about having a manual transmission though.
@pinkfiffty30943 жыл бұрын
(In short Apex in manual but)..... I'm not sure if I like the seats and dash as much in the apex(not sure if there are other options for color) so I would have to see in person and the regular wheels look pretty good too especially with the black but I would go with a different color... prabably the cement gray. The overall I like the Apex alot more with the stiffer and slightly lower suspension blacked out emblems little sportier lip and skirts exhaust note the wheels are nice and more special being a more limited model, the apex is the whole reason I would be even considering the toyota corolla...I mean a TRD/GR would have been maybe a little better(upgrade in power maybe some sportier seats, different interior color) but all that being said I would be wanting the manual version and there is not many so in the end supply may be the issue in which case I would consider trying to maybe get the se in manual and adding a set of coilovers or getting something different all together.

Hey Jeff, I wanted to say you've helped me stay informed on my last two Toyotas. Really appreciate these breakdown videos! I have a 2021 corolla se (w/ cvt) and was curious if it has an open differential or limited slip differential? If it is open diff, is there individual wheel braking to simulate a limited slip diff? For some reason, I can't find this information online. Thanks for your time.

I own an Apex from Canada. We don’t have a distinction between SE OR XSE Apex. We have just one Apex. I found it to be a bit of a stiff ride, but If I’m honest, it’s part of the character of the car and it’s not a deal breaker as some people may claim it is. It’s a safe choice if you want something fun yet reliable, a little edgy yet practical. At the end of the day, for my own purposes, I’m not on the track and I don’t need the car I have going 0-100 in 2.5 seconds, but I want something that won’t break the bank on maintenance, I’ll know will last me a very long time, something unique, and just a bit of fun. Sharing the road with everyone else after all.
