Underrated car. Corollas are the best cars ever made. So underappreciated because they're seen as a daily driver workhorse. If you can't have fun in this car, something is wrong with you.
The 9th Generation Corollas were the best looking body style. The XRS is rare, I was thinking about getting one before they get harder to find. I used too have a 2010 Corolla XRS 5 Speed Manual Transmission with the 2AZ-FE Camry engine and the Scion TC Transmission. Mine looked like full blown Race car track ready. If I ever buy another Corolla, I want the 9th Generation XRS it comes with the Celica GT-S 2ZZ-GE engine and C64 Transmission also found in the Lotus.
I’m glad I got lucky enough to buy an XRS, my dad actually bought it and I said I would pay him back. Now I’m paying $200/month for it. Then he found a matrix XRS to do his engine swap. Everyone is happy. I learned stick on a super sensitive clutch, within a day. I love this car…
Hey nice vid, but perhaps make another video where you can hop on a freeway and hit 7500rpm on all gears. I'm in Cali looking for an xrs Corrola or Matrix... hard to find.
I’m local to Florida myself so I understand the heat. I was actually looking at getting one of these cars. Ideally I’d like to track down that supercharger lotus was using in their s240 and slap that in there too. From what I understand these engines like super chargers. And it should be cheaper than a turbo as it’s a bolt on kit, at least as I understand it.
@@M340ry Ha! I think it was when Kobe started calling himself "The Black Mamba" that I looked it up! I was like,"Hmm I bet Kobe doesn't know that snake is green!" : )
@@M340ry Hey, since you took "Black Mamba", maybe you could help me find a nickname for my own black '06? The best I could come up with is "The Charcoal Briquette". Not sure that's exactly what I'm looking for!
Definitely they're fun cars. I dont remember the model number but it was the entry one with apple car play and android auto. If I find the model number I'll get back to you and let you know!
I got a black xrs and I named it Baby Rolla. Got the name from my little nephew. I said the name is Corolla then he goes its baby rolla. And then I added baby Yoda stickers
Bro u need to do a couple things first reflash him then install a header u can do a k20 whit the mwr flange at the same time go whit 2.75"in exhaust i see u already have the muffler and intake...then ho to a dyno ill make at least 190whp if u need more info hmu im in fl too btw go to my buddy channel all from a phone u learn a couple more tricks whit his vids
4 The Love of Cars They are expensive and a lil hard to find but I wanna say around 3k to 5k. Lotus uses the exact engine and they make I think around 220 hp supercharged and the engine sounds badass

This is a high-performance car that Toyota never advertised, and it flies under the radar
Faxxx

Very sensitive clitch....very true.
Sick dude. I have a lowered manual 03 S. I wanna do a 2zz swap so bad.
I would say if you could just try to find one at a decent price. Unless you're doing the work yourself. 2zz are so much phone though.
Like to see other channels based on this car...we need more of this
thanks bro!
I got this car and I really wanna make it look better this is a big inspiration
New subscriber. Bro you have a very nice Toyota Corolla XRS thumbs up when your video ⛽️🚘
That's what I've been waiting for bro
Had to build up anticipation bro lol

Am in Cali to man just picked up one today off a friend 184xxx miles for a whopping $2000 runs like a champ
Super clean Toyota Corolla 🧼🤝
Thank you! I appreciate that
@@M340ry You’re welcome
Change the grill, that’s for 03-04 corollas only, look for 05-08 grill, altis will be perfect
Thanks for the advice! Make sense now that it has that gap lol
These are limited production cars very good fun car

I think the superchargers are definitely easier but you can run more power with a turbo from what I seen if you want to go through that trouble lol.
Soon to build my 10th gen 09 corolla with a turbo !!
That sounds like it would be so sick
You can have parts in Puerto Rico we have a lots of those xrs here
I heard they're very popular there
@@M340ry That's right there's a lot of jdm enthusiast here
Very unique bro
Thank you i appreciate that!
Miss the MR2 😩
Bro eventually I'll be getting another one
Where is your XRS suspension strut bar!?!
did you change the radio by yourself or had someone do it for you?
I had a friend do it for me
What is in place of the 6-disc? Mine is broke and that looks clean.
Pioneer double din with Android auto and car play
The black mamba is actually a dull green colour. It's the inside of it's mouth that's black.
I was a huge Kobe fan so that was actually the inspiration of the name.

That's so dope lol I love baby Yoda. It's definitely a good fit for a name
@@M340ry thx man. I love your name for the xrs too. I never thought about that one
Is it hard changing out the headlights? I want to start making some upgrades / changes to my car 🤔🤔
It was pretty easy once you get the bumper off you can see all the brackets you need to let loose
Dope car bro
