All makes and models have great ones, normal ones, and lemons. its really how well you maintain your vehicle, other than that is all chance. However, toyota corrolla is a good car but parts cost more than american cars (of course), and it is an interference engine..meaning if your timing belt breaks it is most likely to have valve damage and the head will have to be repaired. good gas milage, though.

I think it should be considered a "good" car. Toyotas are known for reliability, and the Corolla gets good gas mileage and I think the new model looks a lot better than the old ones.































Cons: it's a smaller car, and not much power.

No.































Pros:















reliability















smooth and quiet ride.































Cons:















-gas mileage is worse than older model.















Boring to drive















Bad handling















Slowest in class.































A recent test was done by Edmunds.com/insideline.































They tested the 2004-2008 Mazda 3, 2006-2008 Honda Civic, and the 2009 Toyota Corolla to see if the new Corolla was as good.































The Honda was in first place.















The Mazda 3 was 2nd best.















The Toyota Corolla was last.















It had less room than the Mazda, worse gas mileage than the Honda, worse handling and speed than both the Mazda and Honda, and it had the worst quality and interior design.
