Another way of saying it is the Toyota Corolla was a Geo Prizm that didn’t suck.

- mikestew 6y agoThanks, that clarifies it. I think it indicates a predisposition toward “American cars suck!”, but to each their own.
- officeplant 6y agoWhat I meant was they managed to cheapen an already affordable budget car. It still was a decent car mechanically and provided you take care of it would still run fine today. Growing up with friends who had one or the other the plastics tended to fail a lot more often with the Geo models. Same could be said for the headliners and vinyl on the dash and A-pillars. The vinyl in one friends Prizm seemed to have shrinkage issues as it pulled itself away from all the corners before falling apart. I can be biased against American cars at times, because at one point they did fall far behind the quality coming out of Europe/Asia. Ever since global models of cars took off they have improved greatly. I worked for nearly 5 running an online auto parts store and yeah no car is perfect and they all suffer from some issue in the end.
