Used 2005 Toyota Corolla Consumer Reviews
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.
new owner
As a new Non-American company automobile owner I have to say I am impressed. The build quality is exceptional. I am having a blast driving the Corolla. Just wish I had made the decision to purchase the vehicle earlier. Could have saved us a lot. I drive 26 to 30 miles a year, and if the fuel efficiency I have seen so far continues it will pay for itself in less time than the financing. Toyota makes an awesome product. I am a happy convert.
GREAT CAR....
this was my first brand new car since I started driving. It's great to drive and very dependable. The interior is very nice and simple. I bought the extra value package because it looks nice with a spoiler. No problems with it so far and being as though it's a Toyota. i'm not expecting any problems any time soon.
