I just purchased the new 2009 Corolla LE over the weekend and I love it so far. The S model was too sporty for me so decided to get the LE model and it pretty much has everything I need such as power windows, power locks, a/c, keyless entry, etc. I was going to get the Yaris, but after test driving both vehicles, I noticed Corolla had more power and felt safer in the Corolla.

I purchased my Corolla in May 2009, drove 6000 miles with no trouble. I drive short distances & overall was happy with this car. BUT last week the engine started to turn off in the middle of driving. It happened twice when I was going about 25 mph. I brought it to the dealer, they say nothing is wrong. It happened again at a red light, just turned off. I bought a new car to avoid repairs & wasted time, now I will be back at the dealership, no doubt to hear "nothing is wrong". I am very disappointed after all the hype Toyota & the Corolla get about being reliable. I would not recommend the 2009 model.

This is without a doubt the whole package. The redesigned Corolla is the perfect daily driver and small family car with it's great fuel economy and new styling. In my opinion there isn't a better looking, fuel efficient, everyday small family car at this price point. I just picked my Corolla up yesterday and love it so far!! The car is smooth, quiet and handles great whether I'm on the highway or driving around town. I test drove the Sentra and Civic as well but the Corolla came out on top by far!

This XLE is just a great car. Quality. Ride. Fuel Mileage. Comfort. Style. I bought this not for a "drivers car"...but for comfort, quality, ride, style... and it excels in all categories. I highly recommend this car for someone looking for all the above qualities. It is a "compact Camry"...btw...My other car is a 2002 Camry XLE...

I have had my LE for approx 3 weeks. I wanted to give everyone a first impression. The car is great! First/second tank of gas 31 MPG mix driving. No big road trips yet. The car is tight. The power steering is not as bad as you may have read. The car finish is great. Great car.
