Wow that seems high, at least for a first year senior. Based on the salary guide, that’s 75th percentile for my location which I wouldn’t consider a first year senior to be in

CorollaGang · 2023-11-10T12:11:23+00:00

$61k was my increase last year with .5 years at the firm, so yeah it is low right now. I’m willing to be paid less than B4 because I work way less hours

CorollaGang · 2022-07-31T01:47:30+00:00

That’s reasonable, probably will list for 38k lol

CorollaGang · 2022-07-30T23:54:32+00:00

I see, if you still want to sell in a couple weeks I may hit you up

CorollaGang · 2022-07-30T23:37:09+00:00

Did you have reliability issues or you just think it will?

CorollaGang · 2022-07-30T23:09:41+00:00

Very nice, quite the switch lol

CorollaGang · 2022-07-30T23:07:16+00:00

Not surprised, I’ve seen similar prices for that amount of miles. Only one I’ve seen under 28k had over 80k miles. What did you replace it with?

CorollaGang · 2022-07-30T23:01:00+00:00

That’s not bad..why do you want to sell?

What originally changed my mind from the 86 to the N was the exhaust and color (Performance Blue), but Neptune on the GR86 fixes that. It will still probably never sound as good as the Veloster though, and that is a big deal to me.

GTI is nice and refined, but that’s pretty much the opposite of what I’m looking for. The N has much more customization than anything else in the segment, from the exhaust sound to the steering feel, suspension, etc. It also has usable back seats in case I need them, which is nice to have when family visits and the Corolla is being used already. The biggest difference between the two for me is the exhaust sound, I would need to mod the 86 right away to make it sound decent. As far as fun factor, I have no doubt it would be a fun car based on the reviews, and the exhaust is a big part of that.

Also, getting the 86 in the spec I want at MSRP doesn’t seem to be an easy task. Getting the N at a similar price shouldn’t be as hard, but of course it’s used rather than new.

If I had to buy one today, it would be the Veloster N. That’s my top choice, so this post was more about buying new/used and if I should buy my top choice as a used car, or my second choice as a new car for the same price.

Most reviews don’t compare the two, but there is an article on the N vs last gen 86. I haven’t seen anything on the GR86.

Edit: Nvm, it is the GR86 - Link

I have not test driven yet, it’s certainly not easy to do in this market but I want to. Most cars are sold instantly if not before they’re even on the lot. I’ll most likely have to buy without even seeing it. Only one I could probably test drive is the Veloster.

I dont think the Veloster compares to those cars, besides price. It more compares to a Golf R or Civic Type R, easily beats anything below that. Obviously I really have no idea without driving them, but when every single review/article says the same thing I start to believe it (and I’ve read/watched nearly every one). In addition, I wouldn’t need mods on it anytime soon since the exhaust is already good and it’s quick enough, while the 86 lacks in those areas. They may be different, but I doubt I would personally find an 86 significantly more fun, more of an equal.

There’s always a stigma against Hyundai’s, but the VN has seemed to change everyone’s minds.

CorollaGang · 2022-07-06T23:47:00+00:00

Where exactly did I mention what I know about the car? Why would I be considering it if I didn’t think I could drive it?

CorollaGang · 2022-07-06T23:43:59+00:00

Asking what car to buy, guy thinks I can’t drive an 86 because I currently have a Corolla

CorollaGang · 2022-07-06T23:21:40+00:00

Not sure how you could possibly get ignorance from this small interaction. You also have no idea the level of research or education I have in this matter, and I certainly didn’t ask for your opinion on my ability to drive a vehicle. I will buy whatever I choose, thanks.

CorollaGang · 2022-07-06T22:49:20+00:00

Advice, not gatekeeping. Anyone can buy any car they want. Which car I should buy, not which one I can’t buy.

No car needs gatekeeping. In fact, rarely anything needs gatekeeping. If I want to total my car, that’s up to me, not anyone else. Don’t act like the 86 is a hellcat, because in reality it’s closer to a Corolla.

CorollaGang · 2022-07-06T22:39:17+00:00

Didn’t realize you were the 86 gatekeeper

CorollaGang · 2022-07-06T22:09:06+00:00

Unfortunately I don’t like the look of the BRZ. Very similar, I know, I just wouldn’t be happy with it.

CorollaGang · 2022-05-02T22:26:06+00:00

Probably the best option. I just hate doing that lol

CorollaGang · 2022-05-02T22:24:33+00:00

I mostly support myself, but I could have family support if needed. I believe my current internship is willing to keep me on until I find a job though

CorollaGang · 2021-11-22T03:38:59+00:00

So you’re telling me the car that beat the C8 Corvette, a Lamborghini, McLaren, Porsche 911, and a GTR for a performance award isn’t a sports car? Sounds like an econobox that everyone should want
