2005 Toyota Corolla S review from North America
"Very reliable and fun to drive :)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with this car. It is still very new (I purchased it in October 2005) but from what I have read, I have purchased a very dependable and reliable car.
General comments?
I purchased the "S" model because the "CE" and "LE" trims just were not that appealing to me (I really like the underbody spoilers and side rocker panels). I think the car is very well built and it handles very well in all weather conditions - the wind does push the car around a bit, but this is to be expected since the car is so small. The interior controls are large and very easy to use. This car is also very fuel efficient - I average about 29 MPG in town and close to 40 MPG on the highway.
