  • Smooth - 2006 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    Ive had this Corolla S for about 3 months now and by far this is the best vehicle Ive ever owned. The ride quality superb, the interior is very spacious and appealing. You cant find a better looking car for under $18000. I was looking into a Scion TC but a TC with the all the options on the Corolla S was close to $22000. To sum it up: Test drive one. period.

    Bought this car new in 2006. Currently have about 27,000 miles on it. No problems at all. Fuel economy is great. took it on a long trip (4500 miles in 21 days) from PA to Rocky mountain national park and up to Yellowstone and back again. Car preformed very well on the hills and 70 mph on the interstates with AC on. So far, not one glitch. Shooting for 150000 on this baby!!

  • Great Car - 2006 Toyota Corolla

    After having the car for only 2 weeks I was rear ended. Being at a stop and getting hit by a car going 20 MPH. Only $1200 in damage. Have to say it held up real well. It is not as nice to drive as my last vehicle (top of the line Chevy 1500) but good gas mileage and comfortable. Plenty of room for wife and 2 kids. Great trunk size.

  • Mini Luxury Sedan - 2006 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    Traded in a 1997.5 Infiniti J30 on this car, and so Im dealing with culture shock. Nonetheless, so far, Ive been impressed with the car. The quality of materials is excellent overall, and the car has a luxury-car feel even though its a compact, high-mpg commuter car. Handling is a little mushy in turns, but that might be related to the Goodyear Integrity tires, not the suspension. Road and wind noise are surprisingly low, and engine noise while cruising is also generally low. Ive averaged about 30 mpg in mixed driving. Trunk space is excellent for a car of this size, and interior comfort is high. Lack of standard ABS and side air bags is disappointing, given the competition.

  • Fun to drive - 2006 Toyota Corolla

    The new Toyota is fun to drive and very good on gas mileage around 35 MPG! I was going to buy a used Corolla however, they were just too expensive used so I went for a new car and made the right decision.

    This has been a great car. I drive over 2000 miles a month. Most of the time I get 38 miles to the gal. If I keep it at 65 on interstate I can get up to 43. Great reliability.

    so far so good-after a 2000 neoen this thing is great-i like the high exit hight after a long day of work- nice ride for a car its size,plenty of pep from the 1.8 and even though its a little soft in corners i would expect that from a car sitting this high- interior is a little cheap looking-the neon had a much nicer interior looks and quality of materials used-not sure how well all the plastic will hold up in the corolla- 40mpg or so on the highway is real nice- auto headlights are a gimmick that works great-

  • love it - 2006 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    I really love this car! I was afraid that it would be to small for my family so I decided to take my whole family of 5 to the dealership so we could all test drive it. We all fit comfortably. The trunk space was much bigger than i thought it was going to be. I researched many cars before making my choice and I am very happy with my choice.

  • My review - 2006 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    Great reliable fun car to drive; excellent fuel economy. Nice look on the road, but nothing special, though the S and XLS models are more sporty than my CE. But, then I dont really go for all that sporty buff that just adds weight. I prefer a nice sporty design without the buff, like the Lexus sports car. Not the most comfortable car to drive; there just seems like there is no way to adjust the seat and tilt steering for a comfortable driving position; reaching the outdated-looking sound system controls are a stretch when reclining back in the drivers seat. The steering wheel doesnt have many tilt positions. Also, the dash and center console lighting are oddly different colors.
