Explore the 1992 Toyota Corolla

One of the best cars of the 20th century

Bought a 1990 5 speed manual with 204,500 miles on it for $1000 in 2004. Love the car. Now it has 612,000 miles and still gets 40 mpg. Cheap insurance. Easy to fix. Always dependable. Push start if dead battery. Also have a 1991 with 72,000 miles in showroom condition saved for when this one rusts out!!!

Love my Corolla

I love my 92 Corolla. I put a new engine in it when it hit 200,000 and put a new paint job and had the front seats reupholstered. It looks like a brand new car. I also have a 07 Corolla too which I use the most. But for taking the dog to the park and running errands the 92 is my go to car

The forgotten '87 Corolla FX16 GTS

How could such a great car be so forgotten??? This car has the legendary 4A-GE! Yes it body rolls like a beached whale, but it is super fun to drive. Handling is amazing and the engine sounds majestic. It's a perfect little hot hatch from the 80s. Yeah it only has ~100 HP, but that means you can use the full engine and not get arrested! Wonderful car 10/10, wish I could go back in time and buy it brand new.

Reliable and cheap transport

This was my first car, I got it for $50 and I -loved- it. I would have kept driving in a while but the people at valvoline crossthreaded the oil cap on the bottom of the car and it died. Never go to valvoline. Besides that, though, you can sit on the roof, it easily does 100km for every 5.8l if you run synthetic oil and increase the tire pressure to 40psi. The non-power windows are excellent, the standard stereo allows an aux jack, the parts are extremely standardized and it's one of the most aesthetically pleasing designs, in my opinion. When it died, I got $200 for it in scrap steel. An absolute unit of a car.

I love my car.

It?s a really nice car. I was surprised for how it is it that it only has 109k miles. The interior and exterior were both kept in great condition.

I absolutely love Toyotas!

I had a 92' Corolla with 220K miles. The thing was a beast. Yes, I did put a little work into it. But not much and definitely not expensive ! I would recommend a Toyota to anyone. Even for first time drivers, first car, elderly, etc. They are amazing, reliable and not a money dump!

The Timex of Automobiles

Wife bought this car new. Basic model with factory air. It gets 32-35 mpg on the highway and excellent mileage in town. It runs forever with regular maintenance with few or no repair costs. Sold it used to my folks for an Arizona Snowbird commuter and plan to buy it back. Not real comfortable for a long distance road trip (1000 miles) unless you're young and supple. Styling is now dated but what a great piece of low cost reliable transportation.
