What happened to comfort?

The driver’s seat is extremely uncomfortable and cannot be adjusted for comfort. It has a lump in it that shoves up on the back of the hips, forcing the driver to lean forward and shoving up on the spine. The seat sits far too high – what are they doing, trying to imitate a SUV? The pump on the side of the seat is a joke, more of a gimmick toy than an adjusting tool. The adjustable steering wheel is dangerous as you must remember to shove the locking lever back. I have never had a car that rides so extremely poorly and I have driven 50 years. On smooth pavement it is fine, but you feel every bump in the road otherwise. It rides more like my Wrangler than the car I wanted.

I just purchased this car and I love it soo much. It's sporty, fun to drive, the, sound system could be a little bit better, but the economics of it WOW!! I highly recommend this car to everyone looking for a new vehicle. Corners well, handles great, Best of all the car looks so attractive. Sunroof is awesome I just love it. Such a huge upgrade from a Dodge Neon. Awesome get up and go too. XRS Im telling ya! :o)

Great car. Always fun to drive. I drove about 350 miles on 1 tank of gas. Who doesn't love that with the gas prices nowadays? Very reliable. I would recommend it to anyone.

2006 Toyota Corolla LE 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 4A)

I got my car in Feb. 2006, so far I have had no troubles with it. The price was good and it had all the basic features that I wanted (I have the LE). The driver seat was a little hard to get used to at first and the back seat head rests are a little high for me to see over sometimes. I like how the radio/CD player are up high on the dash, I don't have to look down while driving to change stations. I love how the lights are automatic. One feature I like, but don't like, when you unlock the car and don't open the doors it will lock up automatically after a few min. Like, in case I can't remember if I locked it, dislike, keys could still be inside.

I bought a lightly used, low mileage Corolla S rental return in Feb, 2006. Mechanically, the car has been fine, mileage good, but the paint quality is poor and the road noise is terrible. Toyota quality is going downhill. I have owned several Toyotas, but this is the the last one I will ever buy, unless Toyota significantly improves quality.
