I agree with everything said in the previous review. I have had my 1994 2.0 GL Toyota Corona for about 7 years now, and it has been great. It's done over 205,000 kms now, always starts first pop, tows well, and has a good paint finish that still looks good. I would definitely recommend this car.

Does anyone know if there are any modified Corona's (1994) out there? If so, please leave a comment.

I'm interested in tweaking my car for performance and style.

Here is a link I constantly visit. You may limit your search according to car make (in this case, Toyota) then model -- Corona. You can then specify your search further by year (1994) and... VOILA!

Be creative =) Enjoy.

Summary:

Typical Toyota reliability

Faults:

100% reliable. The only parts that have been replaced are the front sway bar bushes and front strut bushes (didn't cost much).

General Comments:

This car was a used Japanese import. Has the 1838cc (4S-FE) petrol engine.

Cheap to buy and cheap to own. Faultless reliability, excellent build quality, very economical on fuel (6.9 liters per 100km travelling at 120km/h with a full load of passengers and luggage, and the air conditioning running).

Interior is very roomy (biggest in its class?) - plenty of space for four 6 foot plus passengers. The only complaints are a lack of sound proofing (higher spec'ed models are much more refined), a few minor dashboard creaks and rattles, and the Japanese suspension setup is far from perfect.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I have a Toyota Corona from 1994. The reliability is perfect! But in Belgium the name Corona doesn't exist, they call it a Carina-E.

Friendly greetings.

Is the '94 Corona available in the US? And do you people know where to find websites that have modified '94 Corona's. I have one myself.

I bought my Corona in February 1994 and what I would like to say is that this car is perfect. Most of the time this car engine starts up faster than most other cars at the traffic light when it turns green. The only car on the road that has the fastest startup and speed is the BMW cars.

The Toyota Corona is indeed a solid and reliable car. Here in the Philippines, there are a group of Corona enthusiasts wherein the majority of the group members own the ST191 variant. Try to visit the URL http://clubcorona.forumer.com.
