"Traded in my 2005 Corolla S for a 2012 S, deciding that the reliability AND the mileage, which was still pretty decent after 8 years. After less than 5 months (and confirmed after extensive travel over Christmas), I will not buy another Toyota and will not keep this car after I have paid it off. Besides the loose and mushy steering feeling; the annoying beeping of the key fob (my last one was silent); and the chronic loss of bluetooth connectivity to my iPhone, the real issue is the appalling mileage. It is worse than my previous car at 8 years. My 2005 new was getting 40 mpg highway immediately and after 8 years I could count on 35, which wasn't great to me, but acceptable. This new car? 30, if I am lucky, at 5,000 miles. I feel sick driving this car and so disappointed, I am going to be saving to try and pay it off sooner just so I can trade it for something with better mileage. I never imagined that the mileage would be so abysmal, and regardless of the reliability and the fact that most of my family buys Toyota, I will not be buying another one."

"The 2013 corolla is a big disappointment. First the dealership told me it had all the features of the 2006 corolla I had until a State farm customer destroyed it. I bought it and drove it home after dark only then finding out that despite a clever attempt to make it look as though it had automatic headlights , it did not. I spent the next day trying to get the dealership -- to do something about this or take it back, but they used the delay time to register the title ( signed at 5:30 p.m. yesterday) and said it was now a used car. What a scam. I would never have bought it had i known it did not have automatic headlights."

"Recently I had a chance to rent a Corolla S for a week. Car had 11k miles on it. My expectations crashed as badly as they were high. The things I disliked most about the car were twitchy unrealistic steering feel and the dash(radio etc..) straight from 1979. Lacked power for any kind of passing manuevour. Besides that the audio quality and the horn (yes the horn) were the most annoying details of this car. You know the Roadrunner commerical (beep beep) ? yeah the horn sounded exactly like that."

"I have driven a Toyota Corolla for 10 years and was sad to give it up, but I must admit my new Corolla is better than I ever thought it could be. It is so comfortable and easy to drive and has all the necessary extras that I could ever want. Actually more than I expected to get. And they came with the car and did not cost extra as did many other cars I looked at. I am hoping to keep this car for another 10 years and that it is as reliable as my last car! Thank you!"

"The 2012 Toyota Corolla S is a great little car. It's sporty styling keeps it fun, but the practicality of it- great gas mileage, smooth shifting, functional interior, and low price- help it to be frugal. The handling is actually quite tight and hugs the road well. The transmission is responsive, with a nice easy downshift to third available if you need a little passing punch. It's roomy enough for 3 kids in the back (or two average size adults) and the trunk is big enough for 2 sets of golf clubs and a couple of suitcases. The S model has a few extras besides the sporty styling- the interior, while black in color, is made of a sport styled material that is not too hot and is great for spills because they wipe right off. Cons- center console is a bit too small for storage or putting your arm on as an armrest- could be a couple inches longer at least. Power is still on the low end. It would be nice for an option to upgrade the engine or some other possibility for a little more passing or take off juice. So for as small as the engine is- the gas mileage could be better since it's not oozing with power. Overall a fantastic car at a great value with tremendous reliability."
