XRS Brings The Corolla Closer To Sport-Compact Legitimacy, But Still Falls Short Of Expectations

Date of Review:  May 24, 2004
The Bottom Line: The Corolla XRS is an oddly passionless pocket rocket--it's smooth and refined, but doesn't beg to be driven hard. Whether that's worth $18,000 is up to you.
Review: My Experience

I test-drove a Toyota Corolla XRS at a local dealership. My test drive lasted about forty-five minutes and covered city streets, the freeway, and an empty parking lot that served as an impromptu autocross course.

My little Corolla

Date of Review:  Aug 24, 2005
The Bottom Line: The 2005 Toyota Corolla is both efficient and full featured, and also has a very strong track record for being reliable. You cant go wrong with this car.
Review: If there's anyone who knows their 2005 Toyota Corolla better, it'll have to be me. I've first purchased the Toyota Corolla in January of 2005 at my friendly Toyota dealership. And since I've had it I have been up and down the west coast and piling...

2005 Corolla LE

Date of Review:  Oct 19, 2004
The Bottom Line: Corolla is a great small car if you want good mileage and aren't expecting a small luxury car.
Review: I bought the Corolla LE that has the cloth seats, 6 CD changer, locking alloys, tint, remote entry thing, cruise and power window/power locks, and mudguards...I also have one of the extra mile packages that gives me all the mats, nets, and first aid...

2005 Corolla CE

Date of Review:  Nov 24, 2004
Review: Just purchased 11/18/04 with maybe 4 miles on the odometer. I actually wanted a 4 door 5spd Echo but there were none to be found in Texas. My goal was to purchase a very reliable vehicle that had 4 doors, A/C, good on gas and standard transmission...

This is NOT a baby Lexus....But a Refined Sardine Can!

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2004
The Bottom Line: A good reliable car for people of all ages,and the price is right.
Review: Because of the current gas prices and the amount of travel throughout the week, I decided the time was right for a more economical automobile. My first stop was to the Mazda dealership to check out the new Mazda 3. This was a nice car, but I...

A comfortable, compact car.

Date of Review:  Apr 4, 2005
The Bottom Line: Buy it if you can't afford a hybrid.
Review: I purchased a 2005 Toyota Corolla LE with side airbags and a 6 CD changer on New Year's Eve day at a Toyota dealer in San Jose, CA. The transaction went smoothly (I'd recommend Piercey Toyota over the other dealerships in the area - especially...

Practicality embodied in the Corolla

Date of Review:  Jun 6, 2005
The Bottom Line: Excellent value, but it won't thrill you. Leading consumer magazine rates it best for reliability in class.
Review: I'm in the process of looking for a commuter vehicle that will be something I can pass on to my daughter when she reaches driving age. (2 years - where did all the time go! But I digress.) So, recently I've driven the ECHO, the Mazda3, the Matrix,...

What a lemon... very few pros. I'm disappointed with Toyota.

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2006
The Bottom Line: I purchased a Toyota because of their reputation, and I am terribly disappointed with this car. Look to Honda & Mazda for a good quality Japanese car.
Review: I have a 2005 Corolla CE w. PKG C. This car is such a lemon. It's been to various area dealerships with no real fix.

I'll start out with the PRO's:
** GREAT Gas Millage! I can go over 600km (~400mi) on a tank.
** Smooth highway...

Oh... What a Feeling !!

Date of Review:  Sep 4, 2006
The Bottom Line: I recommend it because it is rock solid!
Review: I have had my 2005 Corolla S for almost 2 years now and I am still impressed with the darn thing! I clock almost 3 hours a day driving to and from work (annual mileage over 30K) and I cannot say anything bad about this car! I guess I should tell you...

Big Car in a Little Car's Body!

Date of Review:  Sep 25, 2007
The Bottom Line: Definitely consider this one, good basic transportation even if slightly overpriced!
Review: I've owned my 05 Corolla CE 4 cylinder with automatic for almost a year now, bought used as a certified Corolla, and have done some things to make it better--for me anyway. As for background, I needed an economical car to drive as I travel 40-50...
