Pros: Reliable, takes cheap gas
Cons: Backseat somewhat squashed
I absolutely loved my old car, a 1990 Toyota Camry. But when I had to get the brakes fixed for the sixth time in three years, the muffler rusted through, and the 105,000 mile service showed more repairs than I could afford, I knew it was time to look...

MY SILVER BEAUTY (2000 TOYOTA COROLLA) INTRODUCTION On July 28, 2003, I bought my silver beauty, my used silver 2000 Toyota Corolla CE. It had only 36,000 miles on it and was in excellent condition. I test drove it and fell in love with the ride, ...

Pros: Price, fuel economy, resale value
Cons: Handling
After having bought the 2000 Corolla last August and used up about 15,000 miles, experience teaches a few things I didn't learn when I bought this car at the dealership, so I thought I'd share some of it with you.
1. Engine: At...

Pros: 1.8L VVT-i engine, excellent fuel economy, reliable, comfortable, cheap to own.
Cons: Chassis can't keep up with engine, boring styling, small pass through from trunk.
The Bottom Line: It is what it is: A reliable, economical, practical, affordable, no-frills car with all the style and performance of sensible shoes.
I've owned my fair share of small cars (my favorite still being a 1990 Mazda Protege LX), but this year marks the first time I've owned a Toyota. Having put my beloved (but old) Alfa Romeo up for sale, and suffering terminal transmission death on my ...

Pros: reliable; comfortable; good gas mielage
Cons: nothing exciting or bad about this vehicle
It feels strange as this is the first time I am writing here about a subject or a product that doesn't interest me in the slightest. No, I don't feel passionate about the Corolla. Its just a car. Sit in it and turn the key, and it will take you from A...

Pros: Reliability, style, gas mileage
Cons: Dealer Service
I own a 1989 Corolla SR-5 coupe with 136,000 miles. I don't have enough room to say nearly enough good things about this car. I bought it in 1996, when it had 85,000 miles. Since then, not one day has gone by that it has been inoperable. It's been in...

Pros: Reliability x 100!
Cons: None that are not outweighed by the pros!
I bought my 1979 Toyota Corolla Deluxe station wagon in 1985. The local businessman who sold me the car apparently knew nothing about what he had.
The purchase price for the car was an incredible $650! I bought my Corolla because I needed a...

Pros: Strong engine for small car, solid ride, great on gas, no headaches
Cons: Stock tires and wipers are weak, no way to disengage daytime running lights, funky interior
Well, after 7000 miles on the "new" 2000 Toyota Corolla I felt the need to share some information to prospective buyers of the 2001 models (which will change little).
I leased the 2000 Corolla VE (manual transmission), which is to be...

When buying the Corolla, I considered...

Pros: Great repair record; cheap; dependable; nice transmission
Cons: Not much acceleration
First off, I am not a car person. I can't tell you all the specifications for this car, and I can't recommend it from a professional standpoint. But I can tell you that this is what I drive and it is the best car on earth. I have a 1985 Toyota Corolla,...

Pros: economical with gas, long-lasting, needs few repairs.
Cons: a little too small for a family bigger than mom, dad, and two kids
Back in 1992 I decided it was time to replace my husband's 11-year-old Toyota Celica, which had really gone the distance for us. I looked to Consumer Reports for a car that was both reliable and affordable. Armed with a list of five cars that were in...

Pros: Economical, reliable, comfortable, and easy to drive.
Cons: A tight fit for a larger driver, or for more than 2 passengers at a time.
This is my third Toyota Corolla, so I'm obviously a loyal fan. I've had it for 3 weeks now, and so far I'm very pleased with it: it's easy to drive, gets good gas mileage (even in city driving in winter), and is generally very comfortable. Compared to...

I am very new to the Toyota Corolla, we recently purchased a few weeks ago, so if you are looking for an opinion with a lot of experience behind it, this isn't the one. But I can tell you that I love this car!

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Reliable, economical, does everything well enough
Cons: A few annoying ergonomic flaws, not much engine, and no tach
This is a good car for families with small children or for young first time carbuyers. It's compact enough to fit tight spaces but big enough inside to hold 4 in reasonable comfort, and five can even survive for short trips. Our 97 CE has gone 60,000...
