Reliability I will not rate due to only having it a few days. This is my 3rd corolla and they have been flawless in reliability so I pray it remains the case. The car is very fun to drive, sporty and practical on economy. Has good power off the line and plenty of power in reserve when driving. Drives solid, powerful, and quiet like a European car. I hope Toyota recalls the rumored transmission issue they knowingly sell the car with. I have heard about it and pray it's not true, but I hope Toyota remains in good standing by honoring a fix to any known issue. Otherwise, this boy won't be buying anymore cars from them. It could be nothing but do your homework and keep abreast of news about this
Good sporty little car

I purchased a 2009 Corolla XRS, 3 months ago. I like the car a lot, I drive at least 100 miles a day. I deliver for a living. I have had Toyota trucks in the past, and had nothing but good experiences with them. And decided to try a Corolla (a guy I work with has a 2003 Corolla with 220,000 miles with no breakdowns), thats one reason I went with the Corolla , don't like the space ship look of the Civic si. The only complaint I have with the Corolla, is the highway noise above 60 mph. Anybody else, have this complaint? Also, my left front tire is wearing, on the outside edge. Might be alignment, rotated tires and diffrent front tire doing same thing. Would Toyota cover alignment since I have less than 11,000 mls.

This is a Corolla, but it looks sportier than previous model. Personally, I like to to look like a Corolla S which got a 1.8L powerplant - i.e. people will think that they can easily pass me. My XRS usually surprises people driving an Integra who think they can overtake me from stop (except they brutally cut into line, then I give up). It got tremendous torque for such a small car. However, it does come with a price - the gas mileage isn't great at all. Besides, the suspension is a bit too stiff. You can feel every manhole cover and every uneven spots on the road - a bit annoying. Aside from that, it is a nice little car - storage is great and interior feels spacious.

I was looking at getting a second hand luxury car but wasn't thrilled about the insurance costs, mileage to the gallon, and the lack of warranties. The older Corollas are not for me. I'm 25 years old, had to make a smart purchase but still an eye candy, fun to drive car. The XRS 2009 is amazing in every aspect, and there aren't that many out there, so yours will stand out more. Bottom line a Corolla hater (2008 and earlier) is now a Corolla lover. Test drove a dozen new cars, XRS wins by landslide!!
The Corolla Has So Much Going For It!

The Corolla has some giddie up'n go and handles well for a little car, because I like to move it through traffic, I like to shift from lane to lane, I like to find my openings, I like to time it , I like to make my move, I like to beat those yellow lights. This car can handle all of that!
