2005 Toyota Corolla LE review from North America
"Great Car minus the LOUD WHISTLING"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Everything was flawless except for one thing. After about 4 months of owning this car and everything is working great... at about 70+ mph... I would get a loud whistling that sounded like it was coming from the top of my windshield or my sunroof... so I opened the sunroof and the sound was still there... so I determined it must be coming from the top of my windshield... I never reported it, but other than this minor problem I'd buy this car again and again.
General comments?
Great car, the LE looks very luxurious for its VERY economical price. The engine is a normal engine... no thrills, but I'm definitely not embarrassed to pop my hood. Has a lot of custom potential... If I wanted to change anything (lights, etc...) there's parts everywhere.
