The 2011 Sienna they had was already going bad...door seal wouldn't close properly on the passenger side. 2011 Honda Accord was missing a trim piece by the shifter. Corolla interior materials were pathetic compared to the Cruze.

I talked so much **** in the Toyota display that I'm surprised I didn't get kicked out.

My mom was poking around the "new" 2011 Corolla (aka 2010 Corolla with an insert-here grille ripped off the last-gen Mazda 6 and ZERO interior or powertrain improvements whatsoever) and lifted up the carpet in the trunk to see the spare...Toyota fanboy saunters over and says, "You know Chevy and Ford charge you for a spare tire."

My response?

"Chevy and Ford both build compacts with better interiors and better fuel economy than this outdated piece of crap."

Toyota fanboy walked away.
