1989 Toyota Corolla GT-S review from North America
"Toyota's best kept secret"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I got it in 1992, I got a new clutch, new belts, brakes, and tires.
Needed altenator and switches for the climate controls around 115000.
New belts just added at 126000.
General comments?
I paid $6400 for it and it has been worth every penny.
It still looks brand new, inside and out.
