My Corolla is very reliable, gets good gas mileage, feels safe, and usually lasts a long time. The maintenance required is usually low and not costly like an expensive sports car. The car is comfortable too. I had to purchase this car unexpectedly and needed to find something basic that I could afford. I have owned a Toyota Corolla in the past and it was a great car. And the car is in my price range. It fits my needs but would love to have something more sporty. I would want a car that is more fun. I would also like to have some automatic features like automatic windows. I also have a blind spot and this is not safe and makes backing up more difficult.

I got the Corolla used and lasted me for a good 10 years before (age 20 years) and a minor accident made it unfixable. Did virtually no repairs in the 10 years I owned it just regular oil changes and tune ups. It was a base model so in 07 actually had hand crank windows and manual door locks. If I replace with same model (used) I would need all power, air conditioning and radio. Don't really care about anything else but GPS would be nice although I have a limited driving range. Car was given to me in a partial settlement but I always knew I would outgrow its size because I am disabled. The car I had was a much older model (1998). It was small enough to park easily, was great on gas mileage (had something like a 15 gallon gas tank), but the air conditioner had to be at least recharged every couple of years.

There are issues with it. A typical for a Corolla. Transmission is faulty and the airbags were recalled. Spending too much on maintenance and upkeep. Even so, it is dependable, reliable, usually. Fairly decent gas mileage. It may last me for a decade if I do not drive it too much.

I love how soft and firm the seats are. The car has decent gas mileage. My family feels safe and cozy in the back of the car. I enjoy the fun road trip in this car. I also love the technology behind the car. The car has a back rear camera to ensure I avoid any accidents. I love the touch screen interface in the front to help me navigate the god. The wheel has all the buttons I need to call emergency. I wish I had gotten my windows tinted though. Also, I wish my car could have more space for passengers and cargo and the seats were smaller and provided more lower back support. The seats should come is fleece or leather.

This is the sixth Corolla I have owned. I am very satisfied with this car. It has all the features anyone could want as standard equipment. It is an attractive car, as well. I also like that the car is very inexpensive to drive owing to the great gas mileage, the handling is excellent and it has many features found on more expensive automobiles as standard equipment. The hands free Bluetooth is a good safety feature. It rides and handles like a larger car does and is fun to drive. However, I would like to have a roomier back seat. The cruise control on the steering wheel is hard to read when driving. Also, when using headlights at night, there is a dark area on the top area of the field of vision which makes it hard to see, especially going up and down hills.

The Toyota Corolla is a very nice car. It has Bluetooth for your phone. It has a backup camera. It has buckle bars for car seats. It has an option for standard or automatic. This car is simple but amazing. The ride is super comfortable. The price was good and it was within my credit allowance. The minute I drove it I loved it. The color is slate grey which I like. The trunk is spacious. The engine is quiet. The sound is non existing, great ride overall. I would definitely purchase another Toyota. I wish there was an option for manual windows though. It is very unlikely these days but it would be nice. Also put a code on it to unlock it in case you lock your keys in it.

My car model is a Toyota Corolla from 2006. My overall experience the car has been a very positive one. It is not a car with many bells and whistles, but it is safe to drive, and needs a little repair. I chose a Toyota Corolla in particular for its engine's reputation of endurance and reliability. It has served me well for many years. This is my favorite feature of the car. I also enjoyed that it has a radio with the ability to have preset stations, cupholders in the dash (as I hate those clip-on window cupholders), air conditioning and heater (VERY important when you drive in Texas) and factory speed control. It also is easy to brake in this quick to respond when I hit the brake pedal, and this is also very important when driving in Texas due to the crazy drivers here.
I drive a lot during the workday, and will often enjoy eating in my car for lunch, taking advantage of the seat being able to be pushed in the back lowered. It's extremely refreshing! However, it does tend to fishtail on ice, but there is the possibility of that part of it is because I am not used to driving on ice. However, I do try to be very cautious and drive slowly while driving on ice, so I know at least part of it is due to the car. Also, it does have almost no effect on diminishing outside road noise, which can be an annoyance. However, overall I greatly enjoy and appreciate my little Corolla.

I wish it wasn't so low to the ground, I don't like having to stoop down to get in and then push myself up to get out. Also the back seat doesn't have a lot of leg room. But it's a really reliable car that gets great gas mileage, and has a surprising amount of space considering how small of a car it is. It's the right size, and cute. It was also super affordable. It also has cloth seats which are nice because they don't get super hot in the summer and burn you. I love the car.

Overall, I have enjoyed the 2016 Toyota Corolla. It has nice features and is designed well aesthetically both inside and out for an economy vehicle. However, last month I was involved in a low speed collision, around 25 mph, hitting another car head on. EVERY airbag in my car deployed, which seemed really unnecessary. I was shocked by the lack of damage to the outside of my car. The damage could have easily been repairable for only a fraction of the value of the car. However, since the airbags went off, the car is now worthless sitting in a junkyard. That seems like a huge design flaw to me. OR, on one hand it makes sense for Toyota... Make the sensors extremely sensitive so that the airbags go off and consumers need to go out and buy a brand new Toyota.
I on the other hand, might avoid buying another Toyota because of this. Why would I want to invest more money into a brand that isn't truly economical and reliable? Complete airbag deployment in such a low speed collision is completely unnecessary. The seatbelt saved me from injuries in this type of collision... NOT THE AIRBAGS. The airbags did nothing except destroy my car and cost me thousands of dollars. What a waste.

I've had this Toyota Corolla for 12 years and it has been the most reliable car I've ever owned. The only thing I do is get the maintenance every 2000 miles and new tires and brakes when required. I need to get from point "a" to point "b" and this car has gone above and beyond my expectations. I drive mountains road everyday and this car is up to the task every time. It's all about practicality. I love my Corolla and never want to part with it.

I bought a new Toyota Corolla 2014 to go to work. I used it just on the freeway, no accidents, just normal conditions driving and with 50,000 miles the dealer told me that I have to replace the bushings. I chose them because they have a very reliable cars but how come I have to make a major repair with that small mileage?? And they can't fix it because my warranty is expired already. I contact them via email and just told me that they forward the info to other department and that's it; very disappointing on the car and the customer service.

Toyota is the best. My Toyota never had a problem with the engine, never had bumpy ride. And it stayed beautiful. The one negative is the door handles, they break and break. But I see they changed handles on doors now. Also I replaced brakes twice in 10 years. But I loved my car. It was the best car in my life. I wish I started out my life buying Toyotas, it would have been wonderful for me and my girls growing up. No problems... With the car that is. Just keep oil changes and good gas.

Toyotas not only are durable, dependable, but also hold their resale value. I have owned several Toyotas in the past as well as now, and I guarantee that I have never had one leave me stranded and I always got great trade-in value for them.

I previously drove General Motors cars, but have driven Toyotas for the past 6 years. The car feels somewhat light, but has a comfortable ride and is quite reliable. I have not experienced any mechanical problems. Although the engine is small, I don't think the gas mileage is really great. Most of my driving is city driving which probably accounts for the gas mileage not seeming great.

What's important to me is a vehicle that's both reliable and economical. I've had a number of Toyota's over the years, and have always been generally happy with them. I'm sometimes tempted to acquire another make because of price and deals etc., but after researching these models in depth, I realize I'm a Toyota man.

The durability is not any thing to brag about. I received a hefty ding on my left door on the first day so it's no better than any other car I've heard of. Nonetheless, the vehicle performs very well and cruises down the highway extremely smooth. It also holds gas very well and I am able to drive much further than in my old vehicle. It's very beautiful and the sleek body style certainly appeases me. I put details on the sides and vents on the hood to complement the spoiler I placed on the back. It is extremely cheap and much cheaper than any other vehicles I have driven. I was shocked with this price and it certainly made the decision easier.

The Toyota Corolla is a great value and has a lot of power for its size. Whether traveling in the summer or winter this vehicle handles well on the road. Whether on the highway or a country road traveling uphill it effortlessly handles for a comfortable ride. This is a quality built vehicle inside and out and also very attractive. The exteriors smooth lines and slightly sporty look is eye pleasing. The interior is spacious for the car size with comfortable seating front and back. The materials used are quality in the interior as well. The Toyota Corolla is great on gas and the price is obtainable and well worth it.

It was very sturdy and nice. I like how it put up through the harsh weather, especially in the winter. I also like the fact that the wheels spent go out like my last cars. I like how it's fast. My other car was very slow and I hated how its gas ran out fast. With this car I don't have to worry about any of that. I got a red car and I love the color and the inside of the car. It has good wheels and I also love how it made me look rich. I love this car so much and hope you will, too. I got my money's worth and I can't wait to spend more time with it.

I bought this car because it was absolutely adorable! I loved how it looked and how Toyota decided to upgrade it a little bit from the old style. I just wish they would have made it in brighter colors. It definitely wasn't the best car I've ever had, however it wasn't the worst I've ever had. It was very compact but absolutely wonderful on gas. This car was a very nice car for the price! It was surprisingly very cheap compared to other cars and was actually a big part of my decision to buy it! I love to save money and this was definitely the car for it. This car was wonderful one performance! I could fill it up and literally drive for 200 miles at 85 miles an hour. Definitely beats all of the other vehicles I've owned. I would recommend it to someone without children, if at all possible!

The Corolla offered a smooth ride at all times, started dependably, and never faltered in any way. I was always satisfied with my car and its performance. My Toyota Corolla was extremely durable, as I drove it over 175,000 miles before trading it in. It was dependable in all weather conditions we experience in Kentucky, and did not develop any motor train issues. The Corolla is not the sleekest or most fashionable of vehicles on the road, but I was pleased with how classicly simple the car was. I did have minor issues with the paint not holding up well in regards to sun damage. The overall value provided by the Corolla is second to none. It is very fuel-efficient, dependable, and safe. You really cannot beat the value.

Toyota Corolla is a solid, reliable vehicle. Solid construction. Bumpers work very well. Paint stands up to severe weather. Upholstery withstands children and pets. The seats and related movable parts are used frequently and are in good condition. Basic maintenance (oil changes, tires) keeps it running well. It's not a sports car with a blazing acceleration but it starts easily in extreme weather conditions. It gets excellent gas mileage (35+) and the brakes work well in a variety of driving conditions. It's a lively, red four door sedan with room for five friendly adults (four adults if you are traveling any distance). I have the grey velourish fabric interior and it's comfortable when it's hot or cold. The purchase price was very reasonable with excellent financing. The maintenance costs have been minimal and it's easy to find qualified people to fix it. The excellent gas mileage combined with low maintenance costs and durability make this car an excellent value.

It was a very durable vehicle that had premium safety features. It is also a very reliable, efficient and its fuel economy is very impressive. It is well worth the value of the car. It has inferior performance qualities and offers decent driveability and rewarding handling. It does a good job of tuning in a reassuring, almost linear feel during light and moderate acceleration. Another is that it is a nice conservative looking car with a spacious interior. You get a lot of standard equipment for your money and it has plenty of leg room. It does exactly what it's intended to do and that's to be economical. It's a great car for city life and is also perfect if you have children.

The car is very sleek, especially for an economical car. I like the interior It's clean and nice. The car is attractive and very minimal. The price was very cheap, considering how nice it looks and performs. It is definite worth the investment into this car, seeing as it lasts a long time. The car has yet to break down on me or have any major problems that would hinder performance. I have not had to make any major repairs or take it to the shop to get work done. A truly reliable car. I have had this for a few years and have trust that this car will continue to work for my future needs. It has served me well and I do not think I will be trading it in or selling it anytime soon.

Toyota Corolla is a very strong vehicle no matter the weather conditions. This vehicle was a solid performer as whether it was cold or hot, it stayed steady and reliable. And that included traveling the Alcan Highway 4,300 miles to Fairbanks, Alaska. Even in Alaskan weather it performed admirably. We were very pleased with the overall appearance, to include the design of the body which made it look semi-sporty while also giving a feeling of semi-casual too. Moreover, we felt for what we paid the car brought features to bear that met all of our general needs from work to family time. And the upkeeping did not become excessive.

I love my car. This was my first car, my parents chipped in a bit, but the car is in my name and I paid for most of it. I got it when I was 17 and I am now 25 and still have the car- so far it's my first and last. I've had very few issues, and the few I had were my fault for not changing oil on time, forgetting to add antifreeze, etc. but it still runs fine 8 years later. The brakes are good, is decent on gas. Even though I bought it 8 years ago, it's still adorable. I've always liked the style of Japanese cars. The outside is blue, with soft grey interior. It has great value because most of my friends who got cars when I did no longer have the same car because most of them broke down one way or another. This one keeps going and it's great!

This is a great car for anyone. You can depend on Toyota to keep going for a long times and many years. Very low maintenance and it keeps good gas mileage. Reliable, Toyota is the best made car. This car has been used since I bought it in 1992. When I bought my car I only paid 875.00 at the Toyota car dealer. It was a wholesale car with only 12 miles on it. They only used these cars for demo and test drive, I was lucky to get this car. Still have the car. Now almost 400, 000 miles, and still kicking and still has great get up and speed. I actually bought another one as well for the same price which was a stick shift. The only thing that I have noticed with the 1992 Toyota Corolla is the overspray on all these cars is after years of wear and tear they all become oxidized all over.

I paid around 20 thousand for my Corolla and to me that is a great value for a new car and one of this caliber. It is an amazingly durable car. Has tons of safety features that leaves me confident while driving with my children in the car. Has front and side airbag as well as rear seat safety. I feel totally safe. It also has great fuel economy, and is a quiet comfortable ride over bumps or uneven pavement. It is a little slow to accelerate but it holds its own. Additionally, I am very happy with the appearance of the Corolla. It has a beautiful exterior and the interior is awesome. I love the seats and there is plenty of trunk space.

It rides and handles well and rides smoothly on open roads. Easy to park and maneuver and just the right size. Also, appealing and nice style with smooth designs and very modern looking. Easy to take care of. Maintenance free except for usual stuff to take care of it. Maintenance exterior is easy and need just to keep waxed and washed to look good. Also fair on gas mileage. A lotta car for the right price and not too expensive and more than average on the deals getting the right price. Sells great... Keeps its values for years to come.

This car never gave me any trouble. Even in the winter it never gave an issue. I had it for 8 years and drive to different states. It was easy driving and never gave any issues from highways to back roads. Could accelerate easily and the brakes were amazing. I loved the car. Mine was black with gray fabric interior. I never liked leather because it got too hot in the summer but I liked my colors. I got a great car for the money. I paid 14,000 at the time for the car.

It wasn't good, cost a lot to maintain. Never enjoyed it. This was truly the best choice and I'm thankful for having my car. The appearance is also very well designed and is notice by all. My color is red. Gives you that fierce feeling. Determined to take on the world and all that comes your way. It's roomy but not overly sized. It gives you a difference with other cars and easily found in a crowded parking lot. You can't go wrong with this look.
The value of my car is very well deserved. I was looking for something that gave me that comfort. You can't find a better value than this. Bring you the best satisfaction. Never making the wrong choice when choosing this car. Value is one of its good quality. Highly recommend this car to everyone because the experience has been a blessing and joy. Just sitting here thinking about my car makes me want to take a drive.
