Used 2007 Toyota Corolla LE 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 4A) Consumer Reviews
I think about selling it
This is my second car - I bought a new one in Nov 2006 (my first car was an old Mitsubishi Galant, which I drove from 60K to 100K miles). Actual mileage (city + some freeway) = 25 mpg. The battery went dead at 6K miles, after I didn't drive for 2 weeks. The car has a good ground clearance, but when I drive on a windy freeway, it feels like the car is going to be blown away. Not enough power entering a short or ascending freeway on-ramp.
Loon Country
Quite a good little performer. I find that the 1.8L 4 cyl engine outdoes the 2.4L of the competition that I drove. This car is not a dud at all. It can cruise down the highway smooth and quiet at 70mph or more. The LE has all the equipment you ever need. 30mpg around town is common. 40mpg or close to it at highway speeds. I hauled 4 adults, one of them over 300 lbs, from the airport without crowding or noticeable loss of power due to being heavily loaded. I like this car more every day and am happy it was my choice over competition.
Toyotas for me!
Still own a 1996 Tacoma 4x4 with 308,000 miles and is an excellent truck. Needed better mpg, and since Corolla has been in the Toyota lineup for 40 yrs, I decided that would work for me. I haven't been disappointed at all. Low maintenance (doesn't even require auto tranny fluid changes!). No mechanical problems in 40,000 so far.
Mostly yes! Some no
This is my fifth Toyota product since 1992, and the only problem I've had was one blower fan, which I bought from a used parts place for $50 and installed myself. I expect the reliability tradition to continue. The car cost more than Mazda 3 or Cobalt, but I'm counting on savings on gas and resale value to cover the difference.
1st Toyota
This is my first Toyota. I drove the '07 Camry, but I found the LE Corolla to be more my fit. I love the looks, I love the economy and I love the price. You could get more with other vehicles, but I bought this for the reliability and name. Not disappointed yet.
