Used 1995 Toyota Corolla Base for SaleNationwide

Performance : Brilliant, I say. As this car's 4A-FE engine produce 116hp @ 6000rpm of power and 137Nm of torque @ 4800rpm, enough for high speed driving while keeping the fuel efficiency rate high. Tested 0-60mph @ 15sec on its original setting, not bad for a 1.6L engine compared to other engines. Superb for daily driving, but if you suddenly got the need for speed, this car could fit your need easily. If you're hungry for more power, you could swap it with a more powerful 4A-GE or the monstrous 4A-GZE supercharged engine. Build Quality: Very good, I have experience few minor bumps and a major crash but still running. You could rely on the construction strength if you suddenly crash into something. But aware of the lower section such as suspension, ball joint, steering rack etc. as these parts need a little more attention than any other parts. Appearance: Masculine yet gentle. The appearance won't let you down when you get side-by-side with newer cars. The models is everlasting and never gets old. A few tweaks will make this car's appearance even more. Cost of Ownership: Gas mileage is quite economic as you can get 10km out of 1 Liter of fuel. Maintenance cost is not a problem if you could afford about 200 US$/year. But a complete renewal such as engine overhaul, body repainting & repairing, etc. can cost you over 2.000 US$. Fun Factor: Can keep the smile on your face whatever you do, driving, racing, or even show-off!

This car is great on gas especially when its $4.00 + a gallon. Its Standard, light, and small so it is fun to drive. It has a 1.6L straight-4 so it doesn't have to much power. For being 14 years old and having 140k miles on it, it still runs good. So far we have replaced the radiator and the starter. The brake lines and fuel line have rotted out mainly because of the salt on the road in the winter. The body is still holding up with not a whole lot of rust. The interior is pretty much pristine. I would tell those who need a car that is great on gas to look at the Toyota Corolla. Plus, the new ones look awesome.

My Jeep Grand Cherokee was stolen and I needed to get a cheap car fast! A co-worker just bought a new Jetta Diesel and wanted to get rid of her 95 bare-bones Corolla. The only opitons were air conditioning and 3-speed automoatic transmission. Even though it had 218,000 miles on the clock, she had this car from new and changed the oil every 3000 miles. It wasn't my first choice but she only wanted $1,500.00 for it and I needed a car for work. As it was the base model it had the small 1.6 liter 4-cylinder engine and with a 3-speed auto box it was slow and loud. The engine never seemed to clam down ar freeway speeds and there was little sound insulation (or so it semmed). But, for a year this little car took me everywhere I needed to go without any trouble at all. There was absolutely nothing wrong with this car aside from the fact that it was boring. As a matter of fact, one year and 32,000 miles after I bought the car I sold if for more than I originally paid. If you need a really cheap little car (that's really good on gas) as a daily driver you ought to consider a used Corolla. Try to find the best car for the money you can spend and try to get as much maintenence history as possible. It may not be the most exciting car to drive but it sure is painless to live with.

just an ordinary silver ae101 corolla with light mods such as apex'i dual funnel intake, strut bar, rear wing, custom exhaust, enkei rpf01 wheels,rear disk conversion, JDM headlights and grill, pioneer HU with rockford p1 12" sub,intersys capasitor bank and performa power amplifier. it's quite fast and has fairly deep loud sound

The car's pretty slow. It's got basic but clean lines. It takes corners fairly well.
