Great choice for a reasonably-priced car

Corolla's are really well designed and typically last well over 200k miles and drive and handle great and are pretty reasonably priced for maintenance and repairs

Low maintenance high reliability

It's a basic bread and butter starter car that's cheap, fuel efficient and reliable. Also fun to drive.

With a decent look it is a great car to have.

It was a good experience driving this car. The best thing while driving a manual car is how smoothly the gear shifts and that was amazing.

Most reliable car I have ever ownec

I got this car used from a Toyota car dealership. It had 80,000 miles on it. It now has 164,000 miles on it. It has been a great car. This has been on many travels from traveling softball tournaments, college visits, help with college move ins, and just work communting. Love this car and very reliable. No major work has ever been done on this car. I have kept the oil changed every 5000 miles and have done scheduled maintenance visits with this car. Love this car! Would buy another Corolla in a heart beat.

Simple, Reliable, Easy

I've had this car for about five years now and the word that comes to mind is reliable. It drives the exact same as it did when we bought it at 15,000 miles as it does now at 125,000 miles. There's nothing fancy to it as it is a "point A to point B" car, but the simplicity is refreshing. I would recommend a Corolla to anyone who is looking for an affordable, easy breezy sedan!
