  • Nice Car - 1999 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    I bought a used corolla. No problems but the ride quality is not that good. It rides rough even after me changing the shocks

  • Good small car - 1999 Toyota Corolla

    My corolla is great for driving to work & short trips. It is a tight squeeze for a family of four with luggage.(I still have a lot of faith in Toyota & Im leaning toward a camry for my next car).

  • Reliable - 1999 Toyota Corolla

    Owned the car for 6 years. The kind that you just fill with gas and drive, no need to ever open the hood. The stick feels as firm and smooth as in the day I bought it. Mid life crisis determines me to look for a flashier car. I wish I found a better reason to sell. Really feeling guilty about it. I can only hope that those tempting Acuras will be at least as dependable.

  • pretty cool, i think - 1999 Toyota Corolla

    i bought this car with the purpose of doing pizza delivery - good job for a poor student, which on its turn defines the price range :). its quite impressive overall - stable, maneuverable, comfortable, fuel efficient, very quiet inside, somewhat fast (i believe manual is better). also pw, pdl, pm, sunroof, etc. there are also some cons, of course, which cannot spoil the good impression. there could have been more front leg room, the arm rest is far behind and cant be really used unless your arm has some strange form and the ashtray and the cup holders are ridiculously positioned. the pros are much more though.

    This car is very good for driving distances. The gas mileage, I am happy with. The handling is pretty good. The only drawback, really, is the pick-up. The car does not accelerate quickly. That is really the only thing I would change. Its a great "school" care and one that will last you for a long time. I put about 22,000 miles since I got it in 2003 and have not (knock on wood) had any problems with it. Its a great car for the price. They could (which I think they did for 2007) make it a little sportier, for us young adults. Overall, dont pass it up for at least a test drive. The compartments and layout of the digits and the dashboard are great.

  • Best Car in History - 1999 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    I bought this car for $4000 almost 3 years ago. have changed only tires, filters and the serpentine. The a/c is amazing, the MPG are great. The only problems are cosmetic like the center drawer door broke and the interior roof covering is peeling off. I bought it in Florida and recently shipped it to Puerto Rico and it is still unstoppable with 168,000 miles and counting!

  • My Corolla Rocks! - 1999 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    My corolla has been a delight. As a single mother on a budget, reliability is everything and this car delivers. Its cute and fun, roomy and gets great gas mileage. Its door design is perfect for getting my son in and out of his car seat and theres tons of trunk space. Its made me a Toyotta owner for life!

  • So far so good - 1999 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    We recently sold our 94 GSR Integra (170hp VTEC), & bought this 99 LE Corolla. Performance wise, its no match to the GSR, but overall driveability is fine and ride is firm. The rear seat room seemed a little tight. Per the spec in Edmundsin comparing rear leg room between my old GSR and the Corolla, the Toyota should have an additional 1" of leg room, but that does not seem to be the case as my 3 year old in her car seat is always kicking me. This is after I try to adjust the angle and distance that I would normally sit. Just something to think about if you have small kids that needs to be in t

  • Great reliable car. I recommend it! - 1999 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    I bought this car about 3.5 years ago when I was in college. Its been the only car Ive owned. I wanted a car that would be reliable and not cost me much to maintain and that it has been! I have almost 100,000 miles on it. I just replaced the front brakes, but otherwise just basic maintenance. Its the VE which is VERY stripped down...doesnt even have intermittent whippers (I joke that the whippers have 2 speeds, fast and faster). The engine is loud on the highway, and I can tell the difference in pick up when I have passengers. But those are my biggest complaints. Overall I love this car!

  • Wow you cant kill it - 1999 Toyota Corolla
    By -

    250,000 miles and never have replaced anything except tires. If you want a car that lasts mechanically this is your car. I am not easy on cars and this one has never left me stranded, whether on long trips or 100 mph for half an hour. Worth its weight in gold.
