Nice looks, bad personality.

I saw the new Corolla and immediately fell in love with the new exterior. It looks like and looks even better than a Jetta. However, I test drove it, and that's where the loving ended and the fear began. The car has no handles and when I drove over a bridge with grooves, the car started to shake and waddle. I had to hold on to the steering wheel real tight to keep it in control. Also, the suspensions are horrible, the ride was extremely bumpy. I drove over the exact same road while test driving a Camry and felt nothing. But if you're more into looks, go with the Corolla, otherwise, it's just an overrate hot selling car.

Very disappointed with the engine. I can fell vibrations in the steering wheel and pedals above 4000 rpm. Never had any vehicle do this before. The interior is all coal bin black and the fabric collects "fuzzies." HVAC controls feel cheap. Ride is bouncy due to non-independent rear suspension.

The best car of its class

An excellent car. Driving is smooth, silent, sound isolation inside is perfect, steering is great, need to use a manual break bar while parked since it adjusts a rear breaks. Convenient features are great. Need to be careful on the freeway if windy -- do not exceed 80 mph -- may be unstable beacause of its design.
