2013 Toyota Corolla LE 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 4A)
1 of 1 people found this review helpful

I liked to think of the Corolla as "like a refrigerator". Nothing fancy, it just keeps on running without complaining. In 100,000 miles, aside from scheduled oil and filters, the only other things were and tires, brakes and front rotors. Nothing else. Oh, and replaced the battery at 7 years even though the one that came in the car still tested good. This is the same experience we had with the 2 previous Corollas. The first one, a 1996, was given to our son at 105,000 miles. It died at 400,000 miles after being neglected, abused, driven across the US, then used to climb western mountains and driven on the Alaskan Highway twice.

Its really worth buying...kinda gives you that worthwhile luxury and space for its price. Gracious and sparkling exterior looks especially on silver color Pretty cool gas mileage. Toyota really did a nice job on that ...

I bought a 2013 corolla LE after trading in my old car. I ended up with corolla when I wanted a Civic because of lower insurance and retail price. Biggest mistake ever. I didn't thoroughly research the car and its competitors before making my decision. The car rides OK. Very quiet cabin and good fuel economy but it's very boring and the styling looks outdated for a 2013...but it does the job. I don't think this car has a good resale value. Many of its competitors offer more bang for the buck and I'm seeing many of these corollas already for sale when it's barely 1 or 2 years old. Toyota is also redesigning the corolla next year so that'll likely further hurt its value.

I bought my car brand new back in April 2013. I paid for leather and heated seat. Since I bought to car everything I drive it I have chronicle back pain. the discomfort is behind description. It was the biggest mistake of my life. In addition, the dealer where I bought the car was in my opinion, the worst of all.

I bought this 2013 Corolla S with a manual transmission back in Dec. 2018 with 75k on it. Right now it has 113k on it and so far this car never gave me any problems and kept my family and I safe during all the road trips. It's more fun with the manual transmission and I'm looking forward with this car for years. Yes it's not a mercedes or lexus but it will take you from point A to B with a good gas mileage too. Next car after paying this off will be Tundra. Keep up with the oil and filter changes every 5k and I use Mobil 1 full synthetic extended performance and it will serve you well for years.
