  Amazing value in one little car - 2002 Toyota Corolla
  By kevinmscott - September 16 - 6:44 am

  Bought an 02 S model about 3 years ago. Abused by original owners and left for dead. Our friend at the junkyard for it working in a jiffy. My first car, college car, put some 40k long and hard freeway miles on it (its at 180k now), replaced transmission, struts, manifold and a wheel baring, but it has never broken down on me or failed to start. Ive driven it through hot Vermont summers and freezing Maine winters. This is the car I walk out to every morning and thank the Lord for. It is a car I am truly satisfied with.

  This is my third Corolla. I still have my 94 Corolla. The fuel economy is impressive for my 02 Corolla.

  I love my Corolla - 2002 Toyota Corolla
  By Love my corolla - July 13 - 9:23 am

  What I love about my Corolla: Great gas mileage; cheap car payment; minimal repairs; she always starts; Toyota service has been mostly great What I dont love about my Corolla: Shes hopeless going up hills on the highway; merging on the highway can be scary b/c her pickup is slow; Ive had problems turning the key in the ignition (just turn harder); my check engine light came on after a couple years (carbon filter replaced under warrantee); not enough leg room in the backseat (I am 511)

  There was a problem with my leather interior on the doors, but the manufacturer replaced it.

  Reliable - 2002 Toyota Corolla
  By Laroco - December 7 - 10:00 am

  Very reliable, very good in gas mileage, very small gas tank capacity. You have to fill the gas tank just a little over 200 miles drive. I can drive my Camry to over 400 miles before fill-up. Engine performance is very weak. This car is not for racing, its for daily commute.

  Reliable Piece of Junk - 2002 Toyota Corolla
  By g zeine - July 28 - 3:33 pm

  Since, I bought the car in Sept. 2001, I have had to rebuild the engine before 60,000 miles, had the brakes done twice, window motor replaced, catalytic converter replaced. I had the engine rebuilt due to burning oil, now about 50,000 plus miles later it is burning oil again. Door lock on passenger only works manually. While, it cranks up every time, I have never had a Toyota that has cause me such trouble or cost me so much while owning it.

  Great Car! - 2002 Toyota Corolla
  By Megan - May 8 - 4:43 pm

  I didnt have this car very long. I got in an accident and totaled it. When I crashed I was well protected. I didnt get a scratch. Its a great commuter to and from school. It always turns on even when its freezing outside. The seats are very comfortable and I only had to fill the gas tank every 2 weeks which saved me a lot of money. It did burn oil though which I really didnt like because it got expensive to keep having to replace the oil. It drives pretty well on snow and water. I liked the overall shape of the car, but the paint on the hood was peeling off. Overall, I really liked it.

  Excellent car - 2002 Toyota Corolla
  By Miami305 - March 1 - 12:56 pm

  I am the second owner of this particular car and it was maintained well. A/C freezing cold and burns gas well. In my opinion, if you maintain this car it will not give any issues. I change the oil every 3000 miles and do a tranny flush every 5,000, radiator flush every 3,000 miles. It runs great and if you want it a little faster change the stock air filter and exhaust, mines reaches 50 really quickly. Just maintain it it will last you until your ready for a new car.
