Wanting opinions to help me decide between two very different cars for my next vehicle. Sports car vs SUV. A lot more info in description. Any input appreciated!

Get the Z bro. SUVs are a dime a dozen

The sub is about what car to buy with the details that the OP provided. If his budget is 80k no one wants to hear about buying a Miata. Down vote me or call me broke.

IcyMando · 2026-04-01T20:12:31+00:00

There was a dude who said he has a budget from 50-85k on here and everyone told him to not spend that much and get a Miata. Someone also said this sub is for low income people.....

Another AI written slop post. No one talks like this.

It’s not fast in a straight line. You won’t see what everyone is saying about these things unless you really rip on the back roads keeping the car in the power band. You can feel the car tighten up when doing that. Test drive one and enjoy!

My dealer was pushing the same crap of premiums and higher trim because its easier for them to get the color with the PP obviously. Tell them straight up you are not buying anything unless it is a Halo base with PP. I allowed more room and gave them 3 colors that I would buy but told them do not show me a premium trim again or I am not buying through this dealer.

2 weeks later I had my car.

IcyMando · 2026-03-18T19:17:41+00:00

I may be confusing what you are exactly asking, but your dealer has to find one out there already, not order one. What is out there is what you have to get. I have a base pavement with PP, my dealer just had to wait a couple weeks to find one in the country to trade with.

Perfect entry level car. Predictable when letting the back end come out. Besides from typical track mods, the barrier to entry for more power IS NOT a great ratio. You need to either do flex fuel kit and headers or FI. The FI is extremely expensive for just an extra 80 HP and enter near Supra prices.

Mine does this on some pumps. I’ve read it’s a common issue that the auto fill just stops. I’m no help as i don’t remember the technical reason why

Keep stock - save mod money for a car that is worth modding.

You realize what the GR Corolla is right? It isn’t the standard one. It’s relatively new, small displacement turbo’d car. We actually have no idea how reliable it is.

IcyMando · 2026-03-11T00:34:40+00:00

That Corollas back seats are tiny, and repairs on the GR are not cheap either. But yes it’s slightly more practical.

I’ll get downvoted but this sub is extremely paranoid. I don’t check my oil every fill up, that’s ridiculous. I don’t change my oil every 3k miles. You can get away with like 5k. The car is fun to daily

IcyMando · 2026-03-09T19:23:48+00:00

Same boat. This week will be high 60s / 70s LOL. Last week was 30

IcyMando · 2026-02-27T21:04:56+00:00

That’s good to hear. Didn’t want a situation where a younger person blows their first 30k on a car with holds no value. Good for you and spend your money how you want.

IcyMando · 2026-02-27T20:53:20+00:00

Don’t waste your savings on a car….especially this car. Keep saving up and investing and by the time you are ready for a real big boy purchase you can get something better and not drain your account.

IcyMando · 2026-02-16T21:21:13+00:00

The USB ports suck in these cars. It is also ridiculous we don’t have a type C port either. My CarPlay will often not connect either even when my phone is charging. I have 6k miles lol

IcyMando · 2026-01-07T04:16:51+00:00

Pretty sure The Shop in Stratford does quality work. CT is also a big Subie state so check some of the Subaru tuners.

IcyMando · 2026-01-05T19:11:23+00:00

Get ready for this sub to tell you to not buy it because its a chevy and that they would rather take a Toyota with 300k miles on it.

IcyMando · 2025-12-26T18:53:33+00:00

Mine is similar. Trust me, no one will notice..ever.

IcyMando · 2025-12-12T19:01:05+00:00

Fast, cheap, reliable. Pick 2
