2009 Toyota Corolla CE review from North America
"Good commuter car with a reasonable price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing wrong with car.
General comments?
Road and engine noise are very low, I like it.
Fuel economy is good, engine has enough power (a little more will not hurt), enough space, plastic interior could look better.
I do not like how it feels on road. Suspension is hard and you feel every bump or small hole on the road. It feels like it's tuned up for younger people, with a sporty note.
Least satisfying thing are seats. There is no lumbar support and they make you tired much faster than i.e. Echo seats.
