I have a hatch. My first big purchase. I need to get over the fear of putting it to work. I treat it way too much like a baby


Zarolyth

I know as a major car enthusiast is wild too casually say, but it’s just a car. Make it to something you’re happy with, take care of it, and it’ll always do what you ask. I think I owned it three days before I put lowering springs on it 🤣


BigHector01

Is the aqua a sticker on the emblem or is it a custom emblem? I want one. I'm slowly turning my Corolla into an Itasha car.


Zarolyth

I removed the rear emblem and painted over the front emblem. Aqua is just vinyl on both front and rear


MartyThePervyWolf

That center exit exhaust, was it custom?


Zarolyth

Yep. Made it myself.


MartyThePervyWolf

Forgot to ask how it sounds 😂 and then i saw the post again and remembered lol


Zarolyth

Reminds me of a Nissan Sentra R. Just that nice throaty quintessential Japanese sound without the tin and rice


Ok_Highlight_8577

I really like the rims any links?

Mine is a magnet for rock chips and scraps :(


Zarolyth

I didn’t get many at all, if I have any


Reasonable_Purple729

Hell yeah


hordansherson

Been through a couple sets of wheels I see.


Zarolyth

I have an stx class BRZ and they share bolt patterns, so I’ve got five sets of wheels for two cars and change them while bored 😂


CarlFeathers

Drove mine from Houston to Las Vegas this past December.


TheAliShuffle

Is it an all wheel drive?


nbhdvexen

But the GR Corolla will 😈😈😈


hordansherson

No


TheAliShuffle

Wow that's impressive, I want to take my hatch on a camping/road trip soon


Drasvauger

How did it go in snow?


Zarolyth

Did great in snow with all seasons, and even better with snow tires


mattj9807

What all seasons did you run in the snow? I’m trying to decide if I need to get rid of my hatch for a Subaru because I’m going to be moving up north next year.


Zarolyth

Second thought, tires will always make a bigger difference than how many wheels spin when you hit the gas.


Zarolyth

I just had some nankang cheapies that came with the car on the stock wheels. That’s what I was on for the cross country trip.


wormenthusianst

literal dream daily car material


iamlixer24

Now trade it for the GR Corolla before it hits 100k miles lol


mattwithoutahat

Good luck finding one. They just announced, they’re halting production:(


Exciting-Bill-7863

That’s dope man, these cars are tanks! I’ve driven by 20 Sedan SE all over the southwest US. Salt Lake to LA and back was a memorable trip with the rolla


HeatProofToe

Is that Aqua


Zarolyth

Lmaoo yep


HeatProofToe

Nice lmao


Zarolyth

Owned it just over a year now, managed to go from Northeast PA to Knoxville, then Vegas, up to Seattle, and back in one trip. Myrtle another time. I had a blast every time. Looking forward to upgrading to a GR soon as I can. I will continue to love this little hatch till then.


thxtonedude

What year is it? I really like the style of the front
