1997 Toyota Corolla CE review from North America
"Very reliable car for an average price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The manifold cracked. Hopefully, it was still under warranty. (dealer even replaced the cover even if this item was not covered by the warranty)
The steering had to be adjusted.
General comments?
I like this car, the fuel economy is very interesting.
As for the performance, it's quite normal for a Japanese 1.6 (85 hp).
