Toyotafest in Long Beach.
Line was long for the manual model, so I drove the automatic Corolla XSE Hatchback.
Vast improvement over any older Corolla I drove before. Looks like TNGA was worth my hype. Steering felt more direct and responsive without killing you when you sneeze on the highway and accidentally move the wheel.
Videotaped this via an old Samsung Galaxy Note II strapped to my head, so the quality isn't good. It's manageable, to say the least.
Sorry for the deceptive thumbnail. I forgot to take a picture of the actual Corolla I drove, so I used the picture of the TRD prototype Corolla I took at Toyotafest.
