I'm very disappointed. I have had this car 11 months now, and my intermediate shaft has given out, my brakes replaced, rotators SHAVED, and intermediate shaft replaced. I have taken my car to the dealership 3 times and finally had them sit in car to listen before something was done about brakes. The recall is only in northern states for the brakes. Although all of the above has been done. Costing me time and no car during the days being fixed!!!

Had an 08 and put 27000 on it, but the 09 is so much better. We just got back from a trip down to SC. and I averaged 39 mpg @ 65 to 70 mph. I am tall and had no complaints about comfort. I even like the electric steering now that I am used to it. The one thing I do not like about it is the special tool I need to remove the oil filter for doing my own oil changes.
Sweet car!!!

I traded in my SUV for this vehicle about a month ago and I love this car! It is a great combination of comfort, reliability, great MPG, and sweet styling inside and out. I've taken a few highway trips and averaged 37.5 MPG going 70 mph, and about 40 MPG going 60 mph.
Great Commuter Car

Looked at several cars: Civic, Mazda3, Lancer, and Focus. It was a toss up between the Civic and the Corolla. Decided to go with the Corolla because of the newly redesigned look. The Corolla is very comfortable to drive with minimal wind/road noise.

I had a 2007 Toyota Corolla CE bought as a second commuter car for business. After driving it for about 11 months, I got tired of it small size and basic features. I traded it in for a 2009 Corolla S, 5 Speed 1.8 L. This car is much bigger inside, heavier and feels more substantial and less cheap. It is said that the first two years of a model are the best for build quality and then the manufacturer cuts corners to make more money. I noticed this in the reviews of the previous 2003 to 2008 editions of the Corolla. The steering could be a bit heavier. The car is very quiet, enhancing the audio system.
