    Hello from Toronto

    Welcome. I would suggest autotrader.ca. Sorry to bust your bubble but if you like the 2009 and 2010 corolla then you would like the 2011-2013 as they are the same. Only difference is front and rear exterior. Bummer about the tercel, I liked that gen tercel

    Aftermarket Wheels

    It sucks as the the S had for the past many years been sold stock with 16" alloys here in Canada and now you have to upgrade to get alloys.

    Asking for Help

    So here in Canada what is the best place to get tires at and what should I pay for them? lol J/K. Seriously though, good post. I find it annoying (and I am not a pro mechanic) when I read post about what should be paid for or what is the going rate on something. there are lots of resources for...

    Why Did You Buy A Toyota Corolla?

    reputation for quality, gas mileage, and likely most of all it was a great deal and it has this stick in between the front seats that you have to move by yourself

    Opinion

    it is a badge. got all the badges on ebay. the 1.8 was advertised as ABS plastic but it is metal (they are sending me a new one) and the VVT-I is metal but best of all they were all cheap and free shipping. (that is why it took months to get). the stripes I wanted to put on but be different...

    Opinion

    OK finally got the last thing bought (for now lol). As you all may know (or if you don't some FYI) the Corolla sold in Japan is know as the Corolla Axio (smaller than export model) and the rest of the world gets the Corolla Altis. I have done lots of research and in most markets (Asean, South...

    When Is the Price of Gas Cheaper? Weekdays or Weekends?

    I find prices tend to go up on holidays. That is when everyone travels for leisure, I.e. Easter, summer break, long weekends. Prices go up as everyone is on the road. At least where i'm at it seems that way

    Opinion

    Ebay. Quite cheap and free shipping. They aren't the best to be honest. They are metal and I don't think it will be long for them to rust. They were cheap and if they do rust I will deal with them at that point in time

    VIDEO - Tinted, Smoked, etc., Tail Lights Are Illegal

    Totally agree. I particular find dumb when people "black out" or paint the the rear lights for a particular look and the reflective parts are painted over. My one thought is how will anyone see the parked car at night at distance? Plus in most cases it looks terrible anyway.
