Used 1996 Toyota Tercel Consumer Reviews
run run tercel, run run tercel, run run!
this car is amazing. this "point A to point B" vehicle gave me more of itself than I ever could have imagined when I bought it 5 years ago. I tool on her. i give it no love whatsoever, and she keeps on kicking. I swear that she can go 0 to 60 in less than 6 seconds. i'm going to miss her after we part, but it's time for us to go our seperate ways, as i'm eyeing a new lover in a V6 tacoma 4x4. Hey! I need to put the snowboard somewhere!
Can't be better
I never thought I would be praising a car so much as I do this little one! It's an amazing piece of engineering, and starts no matter how cold it is outside. (I use sythetic oil, which helps). Quite simply the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. I keep expecting things to go wrong, but the car just keeps on going regardless. I cannot recommend it enough.
Best Toyota!
Bought this car used with 119K miles. It just keeps on going like the energizer Bunny. Change the oil every 4K and keep going. Had to replace clutch at 150K. Current miles 189k. A/C blows ice cold in Tx. This car was so great, they don't make it anymore. Mpg too good for the times! 38mpg avg for me.
A great little car
My tercel has been wonderful. It gets great gas mileage (38+ on the highway) and other than normal maintenance I have had no problems with it. I currently have 98000+ miles on the car and I have every confidence the car will go another 100,000 just as easy. It was one of the best decisions I ever made to go with the tercel.
A moped with 2 doors
This car is peppy. The standard tranny is a 4 speed, but with it's light weight, the car zips. For a get-around- town vehicle, you can't do better. You'll still see these cars on the road in 2010. I do my own oil changes and maintenace on it, which its small engine design lends itself to. With only 47,000 miles on it, I plan to have it a long time.
