My S model has been very reliable. I had over 84,000 miles on it and driven over 35000 miles a year to work. I recently was in a severe car wreck involving 2 18 wheelers and my car got the bad end of the deal. I escape with only bumps and minor injuries due to the excellent construction of the Corolla. The car received major damage, but the driver's compartment was intact. I walked away from the crash and the Corolla was still able to run even with the front end destroyed. This is a great car and I will get another one as I feel very safe with the Corolla.

This car is sport and very fun to drive. It is also safe and great for a small family. The Corolla is very reliable and pretty roomy. The paint on the vehicle is not the 5 coats that we were told came on the vehicle, we have a few chips on the front of the car, paint seems to be thin. Also, does not get as good gas mileage as we were told it would get. Overall this is a great car for a teenager or anyone with a small family!! What can I say it is a Toyota, that is all this family will ever drive.

Excellent compact car, reliable and with the comfort of a bigger car. Trunk space is great. Other than gas, regular oil change and tire rotation nothing has been required.

After car shopping in 2005, the Toyota Corolla seemed to be the best economical and fuel efficient car that I saw. Since I bought it, the car has not given me any problems. However, I do make sure it gets its regular maintenance. I truly recommend a Toyota Corolla for reliability.
