  • 2004 new car - 2004 Toyota Corolla

    This is a great driving vehicle if you take off the 2 rear head rests. The stero in it that comes with AM/FM/CD has fair sound quality and the front speakers dont work to well as they are placed toward the bottom of the doors. The console for drinks is in a bad place if you are driving you always have to look down to see that the drink is going in the right place. And the middle console is ackward to get to along with the AC plug in that is inside the middle console.

    This car is an excellent buy. Never nee to worry about reliability. Just watch other people in parking lots. These cars are tag magnets.

    It has the best mielage of any car I have ever driven. It has good pick up speed for a 4 cylinder. Its adorable and NEVER has any problems! My dad is the manager at Toyota and has told me, Corollas are the best selling car because they have no problems and last forever.

  • Dealing with it. - 2004 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    As far as compact cars go this one was it for us. The steering wheel ought to be telescopic and we get 25-28 mpg in town vs 32. I personally dont like to drive it much unless Im taking it up to red line or @ 100 mph in 3rd gear. Im 511" & 215lb so getting out my wallet is even a hassle... thats to be expected though. Seats are way more comfortable than the Civic, at least for my semi-fat rear-end. We have the leather seats but they need to have heat as an option. Heater ducts need to point at our feet vs behind them. Too much wind & noise inside with rear windows rolled down. It would be nice to turn off the headlights when I wanted. We just wanted the most bang for the buck & reliability.

  • Excellent Car - 2004 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    This is my second Toyota. My first was a 94 Celica (+130k miles) a few years back and I never had a problem. Being a stupid teenager, shortly after I wanted to get a big Explorer. I had too many problems with fuel economy and reliability that I decided to go back to Toyota. The biggest reason I bought my Corolla was for gas. I save 14 dollars every week driving a Corolla over my Explorer. The car is great.

    Experience has been better than I expected. Overall performance has been awesome. With my oil changes every 3000 miles and rotation of tires, manufacturers maintenance, I have only had 1 new belt and new water pump since I bought the car. Great car as far as gas economy. 30-40 mpg. Definitely will buy again when im thru with this one. Hopefully not until 10+ yrs or more.

  • Corolla S 2004 - 2004 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    I bought my titanium metallic Corolla S brand new with the sports package. in May. Now after 4 months, looking back. lets just say I would never trade this car for anything. From the outside it looks so gorgeous. The performance of this car is incredible with 1.8L 130 HP with 127 foot-pounds of torque. Mine being an automatic, clocked a 0-100 KM in about 8.9 secs, whereas, a manual is known to clock a 0-100 KM in an incredible 7.9 secs. This car drives beautifully and drives so quietly even when going at 120 KM/h. For dollar-to- dollar value, there is simply no other car in its class that comes close to this.
