Good video. I’m curious to see how Mark’s ownership experience pans out over the next year. In looking for a new car I’m giving consideration to a Miata, OG M2, or a ITS so I am quite invested in this series.

The steering feel is a non-issue, personally. Everyone I’ve talked to (non car-people) do not notice the lack of feedback or love how refined it is. So I’ll take what I can get really, I just need the steering to be direct, and only the slightest bit communicative. For everythign else I got the E30.

Eh I can’t even get it very easily near me. Calgary dealers said their list runs 100s long. And the dealer near me does ‘preorders’, that don’t even guarantee a colour or timing on delivery.

So why would I waste my time on an “affordable”-expensive Corolla, when I can get a Miata in the exact colour I want? And with no markups.
