Hi everyone!

I picked up an Apex Edition Corolla SE last weekend (January 9). I hesitate to call it an impulse purchase, but I definitely didn't spend much time thinking about it before I made the decision. I'll put up some pictures once I take some. Believe the reviews you see... it's a stiff ride! I'm already thinking about swapping the springs for some RS-R units in hopes of a softer spring rate at a somewhat similar ride height. Other than that, I don't really have plans for it since it will serve as my daily. I'll miss the torque and relatively effortless passing my 06 IS350 had. That said, it's cool and a bit weird to have a brand new car with all the latest safety stuff. First time for everything!

I'll be racking up the miles with this tech-laden Toyota. In the meantime, if you all have any tips and tricks I should be aware of, post 'em up! Looking forward to hearing from some of you.

p.s. we say "yosh" regularly at my place of employment, hence the username. Loosely translated, it means "alright!/ok/yes/go for it/"... you get the idea.
