Pros: Reliability, Quality, Quiet, Predictable and Easy to Drive
Cons: Engine lacks power, limited cabin space.
The Bottom Line: Car is very reliable, well built, safe and predictable but a little boring
Would recommend the Corolla as a good second family car or for a first car buyer.
I owned a Toyota Corolla for 5 1/2 years before trading it in for a Mazda 3 SP23. The Toyota Corolla I purchased back in 1999 was the top model GLX hatchback. The GLX hatchback looked quite sporty with the front and rear spoiler and fog lights. Also the ...

Pros: Great gas mileage.
Cons: There's really nothing special about it.
About a month ago, my car was rear-ended by one of those enormous land yacht SUV's. The insurance company pointed me in the direction of a rental agency, and I ended up with a '99 Corolla. I have to say I'm not terribly impressed. For years I've heard...

Pros: Affordable, roomy, handles well
Cons: None
In the last ten years, I have owned seven different vehicles, many different makes and models. Because I work at a car dealership, I get the dubious pleasure of seeing new and used cars everyday when I go to work, and that inevitably leads to the...

Pros: Dependable, affordable, good gas mileage
Cons: lacks space, engine lacks muscle
Roughly six months ago I grew tired of the puddles of antifreeze, built in squeaks, and loud, obnoxious exhaust system my 1992 Mazda Protege produced over time. Not to mention the fact that it had a hundred billion miles on it, and I had no desire to...

Pros: Looks, mileage, trunk room, responsiveness
Cons: Cigarette lighter placement, no latch inside car for trunk opening
When I found myself in the market for a new car last summer, there was little doubt in my mind that I would end up with a Toyota; and indeed I did. This is the sixth Toyota our family has enjoyed and I must say, they just keep getting better! I traded...

My wife has a 1999 Corolla CE.
She bought this vehicle because of Toyota's outstanding reputation for reliability. I read somewhere that the Corolla, over the last 30 years I think, is the best selling car in the WORLD. The Camry is number...

I owned a 89 Toyota Celica with 135,000 miles on it. My family needed a new reliable vehicle that was modestly priced but spacious enough to accommodate two adults and a toddler.
We test drove many vehicles before concluding that the Corolla...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Inexpensive, handles well, few problems, nice layout, great gas mileage
Cons: I get a static shock almost every time I get out of the car,
When it came time to buy a new car, not by choice, but rather because my old one that I'd driven since my junior year of high school had taken to dying on me in not-so-timely places, I looked around quite a bit.
A 22 year-old looking for his...

Pros: CR-rated good reliability, safety, gas mileage
Cons: Tight in back, a bit noisy cabin
After scouring Consumer Reports, online sources, and consulting numerous friends who owned one (or more!) Corollas, we realized that the Corolla was the best choice for our price range. We were considering either a new Corolla or a used recent-model...

Pros: Good Reliability, Great Handling, Great Curves, Excellent Sound System
Cons: Awkward Cruise Control, Slight unknown rattles at high speeds on bumpy roads, Brakes are scary w/o ABS
The Toyota Corolla I own is our first new car. We didn't plan on buying a Corolla initially, however, the lack of a competent Saturn dealership nearby prevented us from buying the Car we had chosen.
The things I like best about 'Emmy' that's what...
