1989 Toyota Corolla SR5 review from North America
"This is Toyota at its best in the 80's"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The basic things have gone bad like the battery, brakes and exhaust! Every car I have owned, I have had to replace these things, but when I replaced them on this car I used high performance parts.
I had an 81 Celica and got in a wreck in it. I received over 4 grand for that wreck - amazing! Then I bought this car for 3500 and got a steal.
General comments?
