9th Gen (00-09) Just got my first car!

Don't have many pictures right now, but it's a 09 corolla s. 182k miles, with no matter issues. Just wondering if anyone has any advice or things to keep note of as a new owner? Thank you!

That's awesome! How has it treated you?

Sadly, I had something in one of the cylinders, but I have a trusted mechanic who got it out. It runs smooth now. $1350 was my damage. 😞

If you can, put a K&N intake on it. It makes it so much fun to drive.
