Selling the Corolla is something part of me really doesn't want to think about, but it is at odds with the part of me that really enjoys building cars and wants to dabble with new projects (along with the fact I barely ever get to drive it). So here I am just seeing what the market feels like. It is a bit tricky to price due to the level of electronics package the car currently has but here goes. I feel it is priced well given the quality and level of turn key competitiveness it offers but it may be that a part out is the only way to sell cars like this....
86 Corolla Rally
I have done 5 rallies now, starting as a complete novice driver in this car. 5 finishes, almost zero mechanical issues, and last 3 events the car has been in the fight for at minimum a podium and sometimes the win in G2. With an experienced driver behind the wheel it could potentially be right with the fastest G2 cars in the country (along with being an absolute blast to drive). The car is also setup with enough fuel system that adding a turbo and going G5 would be fairly painless.
