  Best Car For Your $ - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By Ray - June 1 - 7:00 pm

  I love my 08 Corolla, I would like to see a better front seat. Far as rest, it is # 1 in my books. I will be installing cruise next week. More comfort on long hauls.

  Bar None best car for your money - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By texas toyota - May 5 - 4:10 am

  Recently drove from Abilene, tx to Dallas and back. My corolla got 37.5 miles per gallon. And thats with the a/c on. Idling in drive through, my lead foot, and pulling over 10 times on the way there and back. Love how cheap the vehicle was. And it is perfect for my family.

  Corolla is great - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By Johnnster - February 18 - 12:56 pm

  MPG! MPG! MPG! I am commuting 65 miles one way and need my Corolla to rescue me. I have check MPG yesterday and it was 41.6 MPG (gas tank was less than half full), average driving speed was 65-70 MPH and A/C was on most of the time (speed 1 since it was not very hot). The motor is very quiet and road noise level is very low for a car of this size. This car has exceeded all my expectations!

  Nice Little Car - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By missem2003 - November 8 - 8:20 am

  I purchased this car in December and have liked the overall interior and exterior look. I got the black/charcoal interior. It looks really nice and Im hoping that the clean-look lasts in comparison to beige/tan interiors. Im really happy with the look. The exterior color is Phantom Grey and its absolutely gorgeous! Its dark enough to cause some mystery but not too dark if you know what I mean. My car comes with slight factory tinting, though you may want to get a darker tinting for that special look. The fuel economy is pretty average. I think that the last time I looked a full tank lasted 280-miles give or take a couple of miles. Its pretty average, considering its a 2008.

  Best car in the segment! - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By sayantan - March 12 - 1:33 pm

  I bought this car after owning a 2000 Corolla and was impressed the moment I opened the door! I have the S, which looks quite good, has lots of room inside and is a lot higher than the 2000 Corolla. However, I am not so impressed with the acceleration once the car has warmed up a little... gets a little sluggish while entering freeways too. But that apart, it is perfect for the value seeker and environment friendly drivers (who save both money and gas!). The car is a lot sturdier than the 2000 model. Just close the door and youll find out!

  Great Commuting Car - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By Cat22 - November 30 - 1:00 pm

  This is the first Toyota I have ever owned and I am very satisfied with the Corolla. I commute 110 miles each day (mostly highways) and I have gotten as high as 41 mpg. My average mileage ranges between 37 to 39 mpg. Who needs an expensive hybrid with this kind of mileage. The engine is willing and fairly quick from a stop light. The five speed is fun and the ratios are well spaced. The a/c works great and there is plenty or room for passengers and parcels. Although the handling is not quite as sporty as my old Mazda Protege, it is a much quieter and smoother ride. Overall, very impressed with the Corolla. Is it perfect, no. Is it a great commuter, yes-especially at the pumps.

  I love my new car - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By AN - November 24 - 6:00 am

  I fell in love with this car during the test drive. It drives like a dream! I love driving my new car... although I have only owned it for a week... I look forward to drive this car.

  Smart Choice - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By dudeS - November 17 - 12:10 pm

  I feel so smart having purchased this car. I was doing a lot of research before buying. I get on avg 28 mpg within city and around 35 mpg on highway. Exactly as advertised. Only drawback: no mp3 player however, I feel reliability, safety and gas mileage are important than a mp3 player or fancy in built gps in a car and if you are a middle class guy like me who values money, corolla makes sense.

  Good Solid Economy Car - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By Eric - September 15 - 12:26 pm

  This is my 3rd Toyota (have a Tacoma & traded the Camry). The Corolla S is a sporty looking and handling car, a bit short on the power but what you get in return is good fuel economy. When you close the doors you know you have purchased a good solid automobile. My only complaint is the steering wheel is a bit awkward and uncomfortable as far as hand placement on long drives. Overall, Im completely satisfied with this car so far.

  Its a "10" - 2008 Toyota Corolla
  By newtoyota2008 - April 24 - 1:46 pm

  The 2008 Corolla excels in all the important ways. Its nicely styled, its most reliable, its efficient and well handling. Ive read editorial reviews that feel things are not placed exactly where theyd like, or that the model is not of a style to their liking. Well, they are most welcome to spend their money on flashy boats. I smile all the way to the bank with my new 2008, and all the way down the highway. In particular, I find the driving column and seat extremely comfortable and well placed and wonder if they knew the seat had three adjustments possible (seat height, forward placement, and backrest) as well as a tilt steering wheel. I think they may have missed that .... :)
