I've had this Toyota for ten years with minor repairs to the engine peripherals Taken over the ten years that I've had it, it runs $140/year for unscheduled maintenance. Great gas mileage in O/D, 32+ mpg. The only problem with this car is the apparent lack of power in O/D at freeway speeds, it kicks out too often in cruise control. I could live with more power and less gas mileage. I expect the car to last 200k miles. At that time I'll replace the engine with a more powerful one.
$1,800 Wonder

I bought this car from a wholesaler for a beater to work for $1,800.00 plus tax. What I got was a car that needed a set of tires, a good detailing and a hub-cap. It's incredible! The car is so well built and so reliable, Toyota may have a full time future customer for life! It handles OK,is slooow with the 1.6 and auto trans., but it is as quiet, and smooth riding as a much larger car. Really impressed.

A Very Decent Car

I'm the original owner of a '93 Corolla. It has 170K miles on it now. I paid the car off over ten years ago. Since then, I've only replaced the transmission, water pump, front engine mount, beside regular items (brakes, tires, etc.) Also replaced inside door handle a couple years ago. (Dealer still had part in back stock.) In other words, since paying off car, I've spent about $50/month to maintain it. Pretty inexpensive to own/maintain.
aah, okay

This car is okay. I've owned it for 2 years, and put about 15k on it. I bought it with 120k. It is reliable. It does not drive well in the rain. Cornering is okay, but even at slower speeds, it feels like the tires are going to buckle. It does get decent mileage. But it is not consistent on pickup. Sometimes it will go, but other times, you have to keep your foot to the floor. The braking is not very good either. My Chevy Cavalier definitely drives and handles and is more fun to drive, but albeit it is broken down at only 110k miles.
Love this car!

Bought this car used (3 yrs old) with only 32,000 miles on it. In less than 4 years 200,000 miles were added to that. The car is now 10 years old and is still running strong with 257,000 miles. It is a fun, zippy little car to drive and I would buy another in a heart beat! I liked this style of Corolla best until the 2002 model came out.... now that's a nice looking car! If you're looking at this model, even with 100,000 miles (as long as it has been taken care of) I would say you could get quite a bit more use out of it. BUY IT!
love my toyota

I have had my corolla for 6 years. I have had very few problems with it for its age/mileage. I am currently in the market for a new car and I am going to purchase a new corolla. You can't beat their quality and durability.
I love my Corolla

I got this car as a gift from my uncle when I was 16. It had 55,000 miles and the one previous owner didn't seem to drive it much. I haven't had anything wrong with besides a few door handles and a seat belt. The tires did need to get replaced a few times, but I change the oil as much as possible. But for now my mileage today is 123,000, it's amazing to me how far I have come with that little car. It's got me everywhere in my life so far.
good for price

I have to say that I really never had any big problems with this car, and I am ready to buy the 2003. While other cars were braking down this one was still out one the road.
excellent choice

We got this car new. It gets excellent fuel mileage, about 36 mpg on the highway. The automatic transmission is smooth enough, and the car has adequate power. The cloth on the seats is very tough, but the seats are very uncomfortable. I need to cross my legs to get the support I want. The interior is made of cheap plastics. Interior noise while driving is horrendous, and on the highway, you can not carry on conversation with rear seat passengers in a normal tone of voice. It has 153000 miles on it and has not had anything replaced but the brakes, about 4000 miles ago. There is also no passenger airbag, just one for the driver. Forget ABS, ESC, or any other safety features.
