I know it's 2004 and my no frills, dark blue Toyota Corolla is now seven years old, but I've gotta share my opinion with my fellow Epinionators... this has been one great little car to own! I bought this car used back in 1998, when it had a mere 15,000 ...

Pros: Practical, reliable, efficient and respectable looking.
Cons: Your mechanic will make a lot less money off you.
The Bottom Line: Buy this car, you'll never regret owning a Toyota.
What to say about a car that you buy and then forget about? When I bought my little Champagne beauty in 2002, she was 5 years old with pretty high mileage (153,000kms) but she was clean, well maintained and knowing the history of the car, the mileage ...

Cons: Unthrilling, poor mirror placement, seat positions not great, mediocre pick-up
The Bottom Line: Well built, affordable, liveable, personable, handling, reliability, fuel economy without feeling like a hunk of junk.
I love cool cars as much as the next person, don't get me wrong.
I've driven a Maserati bi-turbo, an early 4 speed Golf GTI, a Buick station wagon, a Passat wagon, and various cars in between. But I was extremely happy with my 1997 Toyota...

Pros: - Good city car
- Ample trunk space
- Backseat fit two adults comfortably
Cons: - Acceleration sucks
- hill climbs in winter conditions
- Fogs up easily
- Noisy
The Bottom Line: Great, reliable car for someone looking for good value!

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Of course, reliable, good ride for a compact.
Cons: Toyota Dealers, price or seldom needed repairs
The Bottom Line: If you plan on using it for highway driving, either get the 5 speed or 4 speed Auto and the 1.8 Liter model.
I purchased a used 1997 Corolla CE ( it seems Toyota only offered 2 models in 1997, this one and the DX, which comes standard with the larger 1.8 liter engine ) because I was replacing a leased Maxima. I was actually looking for a Honda Civic, but they...

Cons: leg room is slight, no sunroof on mine and option is high for that
I got my Corolla in July of '97 because my Buick century finally died. I was so tremendously heartbroken, that I didn' t even want to look at a car, at last I did, and boy am I glad! I really don't know where to start! I had a 2 year lease--they gave...

The Bottom Line: Great car, very modest and good deal for your money, run well, few/no problems, reliable
I bought this car because we desperately needed a new car that wouldn't break the bank. The Toyota Corolla was it. We bought it new in 1997. It was the basic basic basic no-frills model. Power-nothing and no radio system. It sounds sad but it's all we...

I got this car as a graduation gift from college because I was going to need a set of wheels to get around during my next years of med school and residency. The Toyota Corrola has performed its job perfectly:
