We found ourselves in need of buying another car to shuttle our kids to and from school. We wanted something reasonable in price (ideally, in the $15,000 range), pretty hardy-- meaning the car could handle the wear and tear of kids, extremely reliable, and safe. Since we are Lexus owners and very loyal,... review »

Overpaid at the dealership on both the cost and the interest rate.  Check before you leave.  Was a high pressure buying experience.  Would not want to repeat.  Ended up with the Corolla and not satisfied.  Ok mileage, not comfortable.  Would buy American next time.

I have owned a variety of makes of cars and have found nothing as reliable as Toyota. I can trust vehicles from Toyota to perform well with a minimum of issues. I recommend vehicles from Toyota to my friends and family and those who buy them are not disappointed.
I own the Corolla and enjoy it immensely. It handles well and in four years I have not had a trip to the mechanic for repairs. Doing regular maintenance such as oil changes and tire rotations keeps this car in tip-top shape.
This car gets great mileage. In this time of outrageous gas prices I can count on this car to drive me around the...

I have a 35 mile commute each way to work, so I need a car that has great gas mileage, is dependable, and a comfortable enough interior to spend 2 hours a day in traffic in. My Corolla is perfect for me. I have the LE model, which adds some nice interior upgrades. The car has good pick-up. and handles great in both city and highway driving. Both the A/C and heat start working almost imeadiately. The car is roomy enough to fit both my son's car seats in the back when needed. Most importantly I get between 30-35 miles per gallon, and 350-400 miles on a tank of gas.

Great economy car.  Excellent fuel mileage.  The best car I've ever owned.  I would definately recommend this car.  I was shopping for a great car, low cost, and great on gas mileage.  I was between the Pruis anad the Corolla.  I decided on purchasing the corolla and have been thrilled on a daily basis with my decision.  I've had the car for over 1.5 years now and love it!

I first purchased my 2004 Toyota Corolla five years ago, and I just recently paid it off. This is the first new car I have ever purchased, and I am extremely pleased with the choice I made. When trying to decide what type of car I was going to buy, I did a lot of research online. I needed to pick a car that would fit me perfectly. I chose the Toyota Corolla because of its size, its gas milage, its price, and its spacious interior. That was five years ago, and I am still pleased with the decision I made. I have never had any major problems with my car. I take pride when I hear other people talking...

My toyota Corrola is very reliable.  It is the car out of my group of friends that is taken on the long trips.  It isnt too uncompfortable either, of course it isnt in the front, but im talking about the back, and I think that feature cna be hard to come by.  The car has taken me miles on end.  Back and forth for long trips and it is also great for the around the town or the quick hop on the highway.  I haven't had to put much work into it.  But you can tell when the car definately needs an oil change..but I think that is a good thing.  I cna forsee having this vehicle for a very long time. ...

I bought my Toyota Corolla last year in February, and absolutely love the car. I have not found any other car besides the Honda Civic that gets great gas mileage. My car gets between 34-36 in the city and up to 46 on the highway! With today's gas prices, how could you not want a car with this bonus! The retail price is around $15,000.... monthly payments for me are only $280 a month, and I'm only a college student with a low amount of money income and not too much credit history.

 The only thing I dont like about my car is that it does not have cruise control, and you have to roll down the windows...

I cannot say enough about my 2004 Toyota Corolla LE.....it's the bomb diggity!!!!!!!  I bought my car brand new, before I really knew/heard much about Hybrid cars.  Although it's not a Hybrid, it gets 25-30mpg in the city and 35-40 miles on the highway.  It keeps going and going............just like the Energizer bunny!!  This was my first and only brand new car that I've ever bought and I'm extremely happy with it.  My Toyota Corolla has almost 40,000 miles and it's never had to go to the auto shop, other than for an oil change.  I highly, highly recommend this car to EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!  ... review »

I bought my 2004 Toyata Corolla after my Jeep broke down. I wanted a new Jeep but my Mother has a 1997 Corolla and told me that she couldn't recommend a better vehicle. The moment I drove off the lot I was in love. It has great gas mileage, lots of room and drives like a dream. I am a young mother so I didnt want some "Family Car". The Corolla is great for the family but has a sporty aspect to it. It has a great safety rating which is more important then anything. When I need a new vehicle I wont think twice....it's off to the nearest Toyota Dealership for me.

I did a lot of research before purchasing this car. It seems that everything I read was true. It was a great buy. It is comfortable, roomy, good on gas, and reliable.

I have only had one problem so far. The car smelled like sewage. For the longest time, I thought we had some kind of sewage problem at my house. It turned out it was my car. There was a problem with the catalytic converter, which I hear is a common problem for the car. My car was under warranty, so they fixed it free of charge.

You've got to love this nifty little car. I have never had to worry about needing repairs - just change the oil every 5,000 miles and it's always ready to arrive at the next destination. The seats are so comfortable, similar to the classy Camry, and I find the accessories are just as dependable, with no breakage. What a gas saver! I drove 1500 miles on 4 tanks of gas.

I love my car. This Toyota Corolla is the best car I have ever owned. It is fuel efficient (Not as good as advertised, but still good), comfortable, handles well and is dependable. I have not yet had one stall out or adverse travel from this vehicle. I would highly recommend this car to anyone who is looking for a value.

I had one... It worked fabulously well... Except for the brakes.... (but it was just because I'm a speed demon) I brake a lot.

 You want a good reliable car... this is it.
