And I foisted off the ramps on Jeremy, since he wanted (...) (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) The new Corolla I like the shape of. Agreed, very youthful. But it's too small. The Camry on the other hand, ugh. It looks like a Buick. I sat in one and i found it to be rather bland.
