1989 Toyota Corolla GT-S review from North America
"Rice Rocket"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not very much at all just some minor rust, but it is an old car.
General comments?
I really like the way this car performs, but still gives you reasonable fuel economy.
The ride is a little harsh, but the gt-s model is more towards a sporty feel. The tires grip the road very well and high speed maneuvers are very easy.
