2006 Toyota Corolla LX
Summary:
I love my corolla!
Faults:
I LOVE MY COROLLA! However, there are a few things to note although not serious.
- Belt is noisy when started in the morning. I took it in at 35000 miles before the warranty expired. Amazingly the dealer couldn't "hear it". Of course it's only noisy until it warms up.
- The door beams had started to rattle and squeak at the windows at 30K miles.
- A couple of blown speakers even though I'm not a volume-cranker. The warranty did cover replacement with absolutely no hassles.
- The trunk release in the front misses occasionally but some WD-40 took care of that problem.
General Comments:
The above "flaws" are hardly anything to get excited about.
My car gets 420 miles on a strict highway drive. I did notice that when I put in 92 octane as opposed to 89 it increased from 400 miles to a tank. Wow! I didn't think it would matter that much.
My husband is 6' 1" and drives this comfortably. Great cabin room for a little car.
Negotiating traffic is a piece of cake with it's nimble handling and quick acceleration, which you don't find in most 4 cylinders.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

You say it's the best. Can you give us the comparison with similar car such as Honda Civic Si for example reliability, performance, cost. For me, I believe Civic Si has better performance, better looks. Although it costs more. I do not work for Honda or Toyota.
