Best little car ever made!!!!
Let me start by saying this little car is a beast passes brand new car's on the freeway that;s why I named this 1999 Corolla Dusty see I feel these older cars were made with better quality that last if a part goes out with Toyota you replace it and that same part can possibly run another 100,000 miles newer cars it's to much electronic's now which costs thousand's for sensor repairs. I bought mine from a junk yard in 2011 and it's 2025 it's a state salvaged car that i bought from a junk yard I did put a new engine in it, in 2011 but it's the original transmission. 99 Corolla has fast pickup getting on the freeway and maintains same speed as the brand new cars on highway. Maintenance is the key watch the Youtube videos DIY I change my own oil on the car drain the transmission fluid, I change the spark plugs, I changed the starter, tire rotations, drain and refill the radiator fluid, change brake pads, if everyone does just these simple things this car will run you like the 14 years I've had it and it's still going strong, let me tell you it's taken me to Burney Falls where the 150 feet waterfall flows a must see and yesterday to Bodega Bay I live in California so it's a very good out of town car just make sure you do your maintenance. Oh and before you go out of town make sure you have a new battery and check your alternator, the starter, alternator and battery all work together with the electrical system on this car if one starts to fail all (3) components will start to act up so just replace all (3) of them if you have high mileage otherwise you will have to examine one by one which is the problem, So maintenance is the key with this car. Now, in 2025 I will say sadly people are not obeying the speed limits and driving beyond 90 miles per hour on the freeway and aren't valuing life. This car will keep with them but here is my advice it's an older car with less safety features so you have to take that into consideration that's my only con to EVERYONE the speed limit here in Californian is 65 mph, I do 60 mph for safety 5 miles under. Also if you don't want to do 80 mph and above you have to stay in the left lane in California the right lane is for the fast drivers. So the 99 Corolla is absolutely amazing car to experience in anyone's lifetime because you have beautiful life journeys with this car you will always remember but people are driving to fast these days. I constantly have to pull over on roads to let them pass because this is an older vehicle in excellent condition mechanically but lacks abundant safety features their cars have and in an accident the 99 would fair badly at the rate of speed people are driving these days and they know that and take advantage. So my advice the 99 Corolla is super fast my motor was built in Japan so I would not advice a parent to put a teenager in this car it will reach 90mph without hesitation it's the safety features it lack, put them in a 2016 or above Corolla the 99 is for older people like me in their 40's that drive safer through from life experiences and catch other driver's errors to avoid and accident. So to everyone yes buy the 99 Corolla but keep up on maintenance and drive safe and slower please, I also own a 2006 that I bought brand new back in 2006 it's my baby to runs like a champ.
