I learned to drive on one of these. Great memories. I feel that Toyota responsive handling is underrated as the brand is perceived to be a soft and comfy. I believe the newest ones with the 2.0 liter are quite quick with 0-60s in the 7s.
Thank you! Very similar, overall. I do think the newer Corolla is quicker at higher speed, but this one is definitely better off the line, and at lower speeds.
1000% agree with you, i drive an 05 Corolla with the same vvti engine, even with just 4 gears my base auto outperforms a base auto 2008 civic anyday off the line, torque is amazing! I've allways had v6 japanese cars but this car is a freak!@@DMCarReviews
The gear limiter on the stick is great for locking the car out of a higher gear! As far as better handling than the Camry goes, I got a 2013 Hybrid XLE and it handles extremely well. I'm guessing youre conparing it to the 2010 you drove a while back?
I got the 2010 model s . With 4 passenger this thing feel really slow going on the higway and sometime the abs say you on your own buddy when you need it
@@DMCarReviewsI can confirm that, here where I live (south-east Europe) average car is 1.2-1.4 ccm and 70-80 HP and even that is enough for normal everyday drive
@@DMCarReviews well that's good. Maybe it was just the fact that the people that drove them in upstate New Jersey were usually either under the age of 20 or over the age of 55 lmao.
Mine is nearing 400,000 miles. Never a problem
Amazing!
This is my literal dream car lol, cant wait to get my hands on one!
Get the one I test drove! Runs beautifully
Same here
Very nice and simple car! My brother has one and lasted throughout college
They are great!

Old is gold this car might be old but nice 😊

Thank you!
I didn’t think you were gonna do a review on another Corolla
Well here you go :)
This looks like the 2ZR-FE Engine 1.8L. The Hybrid is 2ZR-FXE
What a machineee!
It's really good
a reliable snooze mobile
great review! how would you compare the acceleration and handling to the newer 2023-2024 corolla LE with the 2 liter engine?

Yes, correct!

Even with 4 passengers, it's still faster than many cars in Europe.

I always wondered why these cars always looked like they were struggling to get up to highway speeds when merging…
I think I understand why now…
This car had no struggles. Easy 80+.

Ugh, the 2012 and 2013 had infuriatingly cheap interiors. The 2015 onwards were much better.
