What car would replace your Rolla 09?

Do you plan on replacing your Corolla 09 already?
Is there a car you would buy inthe comign years?
What would it be?
Personally I totally loved the Dodge Challenger in black, it has a killer look

Keep the XRS, Lexus IS250 M/T or FT86 if it is out and I like it.

Not sure which of these 3 will happen as of yet.

Even if we can afford a luxury car I love my Rolla x2. I cannot bring myself to buy a car that sucks back the fuel!

Get your rich aunt to give you a gas account too.
Gas price now is $1.14/ lit. Works out to $4.33/US gallon. Can you still afford to drive the GTR?

My next car will be a rechargeable Prius.

I would not say a corolla is below average, nor an STi average. I would not say that a $35k is an average amount spent on a vehicle. Many cannot even get financing for that amount and those that can typically will choose another vehicle, much less maintain, insure and keep fuel in it.

That being said, the only reason I personally bought my 2010 S was to get better gas mileage for my commuter car so it will be around to beat on daily until the wheels fall off. I am hoping the Subaru Forester or Legacy Diesels hit the US soon so I can get another project car. If they don't I will probably buy an old school GC Impreza and do an STi drivetrain swap on it. 400hp golf cart FTW!

I came to the '09 Corolla S after having and disliking a IS250 MT. I liked the car in some aspects (looks nice, decent engine) but the tranny was pretty bad and I found the seats uncomfortable. I didn't get to test drive a manual car because they didn't have any, apparently they're very unpopular.

For me. It's either I get a Subaru STI or a Lexus IS250 MT.

But if not, I'm just keeping my Corolla...
