holy shit friends, I just got on that corolla GAME
>solid build quality >extremely smooth fuel injection >gearshift has short, precise throws and a nice click into every gear >everything is designed to be easy to work on >genuine room for four adults
I always ignored these because they are so boring to look at. But damn shawty, what a hassle free daily. I'ma keep this thing for years.
my friend has one and it's small as fuck inside. I do like how he never has to work on it or anything and the mpg is good for an old car >had a 2003 altima >kept fucking up every 2 months >finally getting a new car soon

Should have bought a Civic: the thread.
Brody Hall
Corolla > civic
Caleb Brooks
literally the same thing. each one has a bit of its own issues here and there but they're basically the same, it only comes to manufacturer preference.
Andrew Miller
I had one of those. 1996 with the 1.3 liter 4EFE. Everything OP says in green is absolutely true. Brilliant car to drive (weighs just over 1000 kg (2200 lbs) and is built solid to the core.
pic related. Me being young and trying to impress girls with ice-driving.
Henry Bennett
Is there a longer vid?
Jace Ward
Sure. vid.me/sxDn This was taken back in 2007 or something, so the quality is shite because of that.
Evan Perez
Before the 2000s the Civic stomped on the Corolla if you actually take pleasure in driving. > dat double wishbone suspension

>having no idea what you're talking about. So fucking comfy. Even has soft touch dash. No rattles ever. Nothing breaks. Truely is a car for the gods.
Jayden Kelly
Non Double Wishbone Civics are trash, mayne.
Also, the Corolla hatchback/Auris has a Double wishbone rear now.
Get fucked with your trailing arms, Civicfags.

Zachary Morris
Lol jelly?
Robert Hall
>No rattles ever. >Nothing breaks. that's like unicorn corolla
every corolla i've driven creaked, vibrated, broke, and fumed plastic
Jason Young
>small as fuck inside lolno? there's head and legroom for 6'3" adults front and back
>hard plastic couldn't be more wrong >uncomfortable seats no >made for tiny asian hands no, everything has excellent tooling room >solid build quality every button, latch, switch, carpet, textile, and component is of extremely high quality >room see above
I would say the biggest (only?) downside is the gas mileage. It's not bad but I expected better from a 1.6/1000kg car. I got 8L/100km or 28 mpg from my last tank which was all commuting. My old accent of similar size, weight, and power got 6.5L/100km.
Nolan King
Weird. I've never ridden in a rattly corolla
Daniel Kelly
>My old accent of similar size, weight, and power got 6.5L/100km. same displacement? would make a big difference if the accent was a 1.4 or something
Wyatt Smith
the accent was 1.5, 74 kw, 1000 kg, 280km the corolla is 1.6, 84 kw, 1050 kg, 180km
It shouldn't be that much of a difference
Austin Wilson
Guys this Corolla looks hella nice and only $2500. What do?
dude, even letting your AC run will make your car run on 1L more /100km.
0.1 less displacement and 50kg less bloat could really be the reason. additionally maybe the corolla is "tuned" to be a bit more spicy than the accent

>2001 Nope Avoid E110 (98-03)
Logan Williams
not OP, but I have a larger buddy, probably 6'2", with a 90's corolla 4 door and it was alright. We had 4 people in the car and nobody was cramped. They make good beaters. He ran it so low on oil the oil light came on and started smoking, he just added more oil and never had any issues.
Christian Gonzalez
Was this the one with the headgasket issues? Or oil consumption?
Brandon Thomas
Oil consumption. Never heard of head gasket issues. "A" block is best block
Noah Smith
The cars with the 4A-GE/4A-FE eh? Man so anything late 90s and later is pretty fucked. At least with the 1ZZ. I have a 4AZ-FE Camry and it has the leaky valve stem seals. At least the consumption with that is minimal.
Easton Long
I mean 2AZ-FE.
Henry King
Check it out, look around the engine bay and the hood for black shit
Sebastian Myers
my friend and I are 6ft2 and when we sit the people in the back are cramped
Robert Stewart
Same height. Can't relate
David Evans
>have a 1.6 E101 Corolla for couple of weeks >under 3k rpm it stutters >burns and leak oils >gears go in sloppily >interior is fugly >stereo sucks >central locking sucks and works every tenth time when locking
>every button, latch, switch, carpet, textile, and component is of extremely high quality
My chryslers interior feels comfier and of better quality and I really don't think so highly of chrysler interiors.
Benjamin Kelly
>my chrysler's interior is better than a toyota interior
!!!
Brody Ortiz
A 2010 corolla's interior is way better than my chrysler's to be the most honest with you my man.
Easton Miller

Adrian Harris
>>extremely smooth fuel injection You sound like you're out of things to say.
Justin Davis
>80s Corolla
90s shitboxes came mostly with shitty hard plastic.
Isaac Bennett
No idea what you're talking about.
Lincoln Wilson
more than your grandparents smelly hand-me-down corolla
Jack Hughes
My 4E-FE is lazy, but it dont consume any oil. Fuel consumption is usually from 6.5 to 7.5 l/100km (5.5 l/100 once on longer trip)
>everything is made for tiny asian hands What?! I can drive with leather winter gloves with no problem (maybe radio needs more attention then) This car is simple. I drive it for 4 years now, and I plan to keep it.
Caleb Evans
idk i have a 2005 corolla and i hate everything about it except the steering.
the frame of the car is too thick, meaning i have a massive blindspot outside of the windshield
its raised too high
the seats are uncomfortable for tall people (i get back pain)
gross
Jack Garcia
This sounds like a butt hurt review on consumer reports. None of that is the cars fault. You're just stupid
