Not surprised. Stellanus will sell anyone a vehicle. Bad credit, no credit, no problem!
Illegal immigrant MX gang banger sharing single wide with five other doods dealing meth, driving 392 SRT Charger with yellow shipping protectors.
It's only a stereotype if it's not 100% true boiz.
And queue why I can't drive the following cars..CTS-V
Pontiac G8
Any sort of G35/7
Fox bodies
Any 5.0 really.
Anything FCA that says charger/challenger
recently lexus gs/is has been creeping in...
Yep you're part of the elite ruling class shining down on the peasants. Since you have the means to ride up high not give a F about mpg and afford LEDs...
(Happened in my tacoma as well) which had one of the best headlights I experienced.
This is just the reality of being a rich in a 'yota versus us poors in BMWs.
Understandably, but I'm referring to the Civic, Pilot, and CRV driving with around with disproportionately higher rates of having their high beams activated. Something is up with that brand, or buyers of that brand in Ontario. Yesterday I specifically kept track, there were four cars on road running high beams, all Honderp products.
LED? Hondas LED lights suck and have a ton of upward glare. Always looks like they have high beams on.
No it's the poors in halogen headlight bulbs pumping it through projector bulbs. You know when the high beams are on because they have a separate halogen housing for them. Projector low beam + halogen blasters on the inner half of the headlights + the oddly blue hued LED strip to make the owners feel like they drive a "premium" vehicle from this decade. Those are our ghetto track stars now that the majority of Altimas are off the road for blown engines due to a lack of service for 12 straight years.

So if I buy a GR Corolla which group of terrible people will I be a part of?

That's an interesting one. I suspect a lot of Subaru vapebros making the move, so probably something along those lines.
car's awesome. I'd rock one ZFG assuming it's not full blown RACECAR stiff status.

100% a vape bro wagon, albeit a fairly well off vape bro who can afford a $45K Corolla.

I am personally pretty about the image of a vehicle. I did own a Miata and a Corvette, they must be two of the worst in their own ways.
Altima I certainly would never get though, not only are the operators generally sub par, the vehicle itself is also terribad. I have a friend who weirdly is on his second or third one, he always gets a loaded out V6, very to me as he is pretty well off and I'm sure has great credit. He buys them new, so he could have anything.

Everyone's rich now, $45k is the new $25k.

Nissan might THROW money at him to buy these things if he has good credit (probably like 84mo 0% + cash off). And while they're not really the best cars, they sure seem to be durable. So many look like they run through the ringer and just keep going somehow. So cheap and durable, if you don't otherwise care, it's not the worst choice?

I suppose so, he is obviously not a car guy. I haven't really come out and asked him as I can't think of a way to do that without insinuating that I think his cars are shit.
When he bought the last one, he actually asked me and I suggested Cammie/Civic/Accord/Mazda3 and then he just went and bought another Altima.
He had also been living in NYC for several years carless previously, so I'm guessing getting in a 2021 car when you haven't really been in cars much for years, anything would seem pretty nice.

I guess. Not saying that the thing isn't worth it, but it's still fairly baller status, IMO. I've never owned a car anywhere close to that and consider myself a life long car guy.
The state of Florida alone when going to Miami is quite a long stretch from VA as well, once you hit the border, atleast 5 more hours to go. But you can go a 100 mph without much worries, unlike in my state.
With the shitty HRV rental it was with the convoy of going 90-110
100%
The first few times you do it you hit Florida and think you are almost there, and then proceed to drive for six more hours on a flat Street interstate with a bunch of terrible drivers. The traffic can also be brutal as soon as you get to West Palm Beach or so.
I remember I went to Orlando back in 2018, we got to a halt for almost 2 hours then eventually a snails pace because of an accident where only one lane was open. It was right after Jacksonville I think. But it was fun chatting with other people going outside of their car, that day I hit the road in 4 AM.

Your jeep is like 38+ tax?
It was $36,XXX, still 20% under or more what a GRolla will be and shared with

These are never going to be βreadilyβ available. Toyota is going to produce far less than the demand. Just like they are doing with the GR Yaris.
Also Iβm anticipating the price to be in the low 40s for the βbaseβ and mid 40s for the limited slip model
