It's probably best to approach the GR Corolla as a sports car that just happens to have some space in the back for carrying a few things around (like tools and extra wheels/tires for the track). It seems too small to be a practical family car and too big to be a dedicated sports car like the GR 86 or BRZ. The Civic Type R is much larger and more practical, but the GR Corolla stays more true to the traditional small hot hatch formula.
@@39rbn61 I’d choose the Type R as well. There really isn’t anything else that rivals its practicality, performance, and reliability compared to other new car offerings. The biggest issue with the Type R is availability and dealership markups here in the United States.
