So far I am enjoying the new Corolla. My last car was a 2000 Subaru wagon that died an untimely death; with only 170K I was hoping to get at least 8 more years out of it. However, the LE is far more luxurious than the Subaru. It seems to handle well despite the narrower wheelbase, the mileage (averaging 40MPG) is phenomenal & the car reasonably versatile for a sedan. The car has decent pickup (important in insane Atlanta traffic) and is stable on the highway. It's very comfortable on a long commute (anywhere from 35 minutes to three hours), & I can pack two Goldens and a Labrakita in it with ease if I have enough stinky tuna treats.
Downsized from Lexus ES 300

Bought the car 1 week ago to replace a perfect, but aging 2002 Lexus ES 300. I like to sport look of the Corolla S and thought I would be sacrificing a lot but not really. No heated seats, no leather (in my model) and no 6 disc CD changer but that's about it. Gas mileage is excellent and car is more than what you would expect to get, with the price tag. Really liking it so far and I know this car will be burning gas down the NY roadways for many, many years to come.
Gas milege is so disappointing

I just bought a 2010 Corolla to replace my 1996 Corolla which had served me loyally over 10+ years. However I found with the 2010 corolla, I only got a 30mpg on high way (I commute 80 miles a day), while my old corolla made at least 33 mpg. How disappointed I am! Also there is a bit noise from engine. I am not sure if that will turn to a bigger problem in a year or two. My old corolla was very quite when I bought it.
Decent Car

Overall it is not a bad car to drive. The transmission is really smooth and the car provides enough power for most drivers in this segment. Steering is electric and feels every bit of it; that is okay for some but not others. This is my first Toyota and I have to say I'm left underwhelmed. It's bland which is Toyota, but my car has not been "reliable". The interior dash rattles due to hard plastics it seems, had to take it in for the recall, fix a loose bracket on the muffler, and replace the front struts - all with under 8000KMS on it, and the bumper half came off when it brushed up against a curb. I don't suggest not buying it, but Toyota's quality might be slipping with this one.
Fun to drive

I traded in my 99 Nissan Altima SE L and I am very impressed with this car. I compared the Mazda 3, Kia Forte, Hyundai Elantra and even another Altima and the Corolla S won. I got a super deal, much less than the TMV price. I like the interior, which is spacious and well thought out. It rides much nicer than the Altima. The S presents itself quite well and you can't beat the MPG. Add the discounted Extra Value Package and you have a great upgrade. I didn't need anything else. This car is fun to drive, city or highway and you don't feel guilty because the gas mileage is so good. Go ahead and buy this car. You get much more for your money.
