Used 2005 Toyota Corolla Consumer Reviews
Corolla got it goin on
Nice Ride...i think its a great car to invest in knowing that reaching 100,000 miles is no prob. Fuel is great..comfortable ride, just a work of art. The only downside to the car is that the steering wheel is hard to adjust to the drivers seat..and there is a huge blind spot in the back. But other than that the car itself is great and has a lot to offer.
Best car I've ever owned!
I've had this car over four years and it's been 100% reliable, best handling car I've driven, great performance, and the seat gives my fairly seriously messed-up spine the best support I've found in a car seat. Mileage is very good - the only vehicle I've owned that used less gas was a Suzuki/Chevy Swift/Sprint. I'd buy this again without hesitation and have recommended the model to other folks since I got mine.
Knock on Wood!
I purchased this car with 6 miles on it. I love this car. Every time I'm tempted to purchase a new car, I just can't imagine departing from my Corolla. Made in the USA by GM workers, this car has quality. Besides some initial, and minor, warranty issues, I've done nothing but change her oil and give her a new set of tires. I can only imagine this being an awesome buy as a used car because it really is quite versatile. Decent trunk, spacious interior, decent design.
Love My Little 'Yoder
Bought my car before gas prices got ridiculous. Love the gas mileage! Had an ex-girlfriend who never took care of her '99 Corolla and it ran great. I figured mine would last forever if I take care of it. The engine is peppy, but could use a little more power... especially with the AC on. It's a GREAT car for the price. Luxury car ameneties on a compact. I'm happy with the accessories (radio, cruise, remote entry, etc.) I am very satisfied with my purchase and glad I chose this car for my first new car. I highly recommend this car.
Smooth ride, sufficient power
I and a friend bought a corolla today. We got a deal of 13600, which is well below Edmunds' TMV price for a very basic corolla with a cd player and automatic transmission. Overall, it has sufficient power for highway speed. It took about 6 second to get from 45 to 70 mph, but the engine noise sounds working hard. Wind noise is not bad, but road noise is noticeably annoying. You may have to turn to volume a bit higher to listen to music. Brake works well. A/C runs smooth. There are really not much you can expect for this price, but the main thing is the engine sounds quiet and the car has reputation of reliable.
