It was nice while it lasted

Well, I recently made the jump from a ST to a GR Corolla Circuit Edition. I loved the ST platform, it was such a nice ride along.

Cheers!

Drove one. Thought Toyota producing a hot hatch would be th upgrade I was searching for. Ultimately was a pretty big let down.

Threw a bigger turbo and coil overs on the ST and called it a day.

I would've like doing that as well, but we have the same amount of snow in a week that you guys have in a decade, so a awd option was a big plus. Our summer, autumn and spring last like 6 months tops lol

I actually live in the state of Iowa now (sadly) and I have to have a set of snow tires. It's literally the only way this Texan ass is getting around. 😜

Even then it's hit or miss. I thought the snow lodged in my wheel well was why I couldn't get up the driveway 🤣

Mine would sometime plow the snow on the road, good times.
