Used 1989 Toyota Corolla for Sale near State College, PA

A great car, 4 out of 5 only because of the boxy exterior and power. I bought this used in 1999 and drove it until 2006, now I'm giving it to my son who will soon have his license. Everything about the car is still perfect, just needs some exhaust system work (rust and corrosion), a new battery and starter. The interior is roomy and comfortable, plus icy A/C and pretty good speakers. I get high mileage, around 30 mpg city, which is incredible considering the year of the car. A bit of rust on the outside, not very noticeable. Automatic trans., has a bit of trouble going up big hills but that isnt much of a problem where I live. A perfect car for someone who just needs to get around town and take a long trip every now and then. Handles very well, easy driving but fun.

I purchased this car from a family member for $100. It had 144,219 miles on it, and the usual things (shocks, tires, brakes, belts, exhaust) were worn out. So I fixed those and replaced the audio system/speakers, and transformed it into a great little car. I had some parts fail in the differential portion of the transmission (FWD), so had the whole thing overhauled. Also replaced the a leaky distributor. It has been very reliable and smooth running. I put serious money in it, but I got it cheap. It's at 180K+ miles now, and I expect it to run well for many more years. It's also great for a young driver.

I have had my corolla for a year and drive it daily in NYC. It is the perfect size for parking in tight spots. I recently had the all the body work restored and car repainted to its original color. I always get smiles from the parking lot attendants and heads turn because the car looks so clean for a daily driver. It starts up fast in the winter and the heater blast so much heat. In the summer I get an "ice cream headache" because the air conditioner gets too cold! I have all the repairs done at the manhattan dealership and very reasonalble to maintain.

My car has great interior and the body is fairly straight. The only concerns are the engine is going out and the paint is oxidised because it was owned near the ocean.

I've been driving my 89 Corolla DX for almost 2 years. This particular car was created to be a classic! It's fun to drive it, and a family oriented vehicle!
