Backup camera, CVT (=quieter ride, better MPG), remote key fob, cruise control, auto-climate, variable speed wipers, better cloth and choice of color, for around 900$ MSRP (more if the L is manual). Not saying it's a big deal. I don't think OP want to trade in so soon (would be foolishness...

Yes !

With Entune (not premium) and a USB drive, there might be a delay for the unit to make an inventory of the key at start (more or less a minute, depending) while the last song playing on the last trip resume. If that song is long enough (otherwise it jumps to the first song recorded on the drive)...

Not sure if out of the folder might be a problem but mine are all in the album folder and I don't have any problem. Also, be sure, when editing, that you apply art and album details (exactly the same) to all songs in the folder (or chosen ones). It is possible that a song is not associated with...

Might be the belt just having a delay re-engaging and/or the hill-assist function to knock off.

.m4a and IDtags are tricky. Would they be the one not working ? Apple tends to "protect" it stuff, meaning "keeping" you in the family... If so, the solution would be to edit the tags yourself (lot of free programs to do so), flushing the iTunes ones. Not to mingle with iTunes, you may do that...

Needle always goes bottom when car is turned off with every car I've had. And over full when full. Perfectly normal. Not an error. (Plus, in general, needle will be a bit pessimistic when going low, to avoid a surprising "Empty".

Intelligent cruise : Done ! (as an option, of course) Pre-collision system with pedestrian detection function Dynamic radar cruise control Lane departure alert with steering assist function Automatic high beam Turbo ? : announced for next gen (but for economy, not performance, apparently.

A bit closer to iM for interior A bit massive but characteristic front end Great new options (pre collision, radar cruise, auto high beams). 6 trims (end of option packages ?) Not a big deal but nice ! http://pressroom.toyota.com/article_display.cfm?article_id=5509

Just curious : why is stock exhaust better for winter time ?

Any type of transmission only have one gear in reverse. No car is designed - nor even need - to go fast in reverse. You'd have to define "a little noisy" . Corolla is a 4 cyl econobox, not a Lexus, albeit generally quiet (noticeably quieter than a Mazda 3 for instance). On "D" at 60 mph RPM is...

All Corollas have bluetooth for phone and music

Don't own a L but a LE Eco. Can confirm though that the 2Z engine is not direct injection and has timing chain, not belt. You may want the L for the manual, but for me the price difference between L and LE VS equipment (back-up camera, cruise control,auto-climate, better cloth on seat, etc)...

And trendy reviewers keep wondering why so many people still buy "boring" cars over their darling sporty/exciting recommendations !!!

A lot of it has to do with habits/conditions of driving. It sounds low compare to me, but it's hard, if not impossible to compare. Has the average been reset recently, taking just a short "heavy" distance in account ?

Shouldn't be a problem, as 0W-20 is synthetic. Synthetic is stable enough to go a long way further than recommended intervals (not that its not a good thing to do more frequent changes). Only issue is that you don't know how the car was handled as a loaner meanwhile. They said oil was done (most...

Motor oil at 10K makes a lot more sense ! Check your receipt... it should list what they have done (a CVT fluid change cost many times more than a motor oil change). Regarding your warranty (insurance, really) if they apply it the way they do maintenance, I'd be very careful about that and small...

Changing the CVT fluid every 10K ? Nah... We've heard anything from 60K (what the manual says about AT) to 100K or never. Even the fragile CVTs from Nissan or Audi don't go below 30K for CVT fluid change. And you say it's been only 6K since last change, so they already changed it once at 10K ...

After all those months you still haven't got it to the mechanic ? http://www.corollaforum.com/threads/grinding-noise-on-startup.4698/#post-26662

If there was no problem before and there is now, firmware update won't be of help. Those correct problems known to be commons to all head units. Pairing can only be done when the car doesn't move. When moving, icons are dimmed so that you use the hand-free feature. After the phones were marked...
