Thanks for reminding me, I had no idea. Actually I drive the z71 most of the time.

Just remember, polish a turd and it's still a turd.

the guy also has an 8 second camaro . The corolla was built to bust heads and that's it. You saying that makes you look ignorant. Were all aware that corollas are gay normally..... This one traps 137 through the quarter.

Maybe it's a personal preference. One of my ex's had a Corolla, guess
I hold a grudge.

Turbo rotary engines are pretty awesome, and that corolla moves. But the engine probably won't last long.

I say go with it I love how domestic guys blow off imports!!!!

Yes 95% aren't fast but when the 1 that bites you in the *** comes out to play the excuses fly or the I don't wanna go from a roll **** starts.

Any car/truck/bobsled/dunebuggy/etc that traps 137 whether 4,6,8,10,12 cylinders is a force to be reckoned with.

Just like said before, the man made that car to whip *** on people who wouldn't give that car a second look. Very badass build IMO. Looks like a POS, but goes like a SOB. Great sleeper.

You guys are really missing the point. He built it to go fast as a sleeper, he doesnt give a **** what it looks like, thats the whole point. yes, we are aware going fast isnt everything. In this case, that is the only purpose of this car.

Get off your hight horses and see the car for what it is, jesus christ. Its not his only car.
