Used 2002 Toyota Corolla CE for Sale near Kansas City, MO

the acceleration braking and handeling were all very good for a JDM car. the car was a very sturdy car when it lasted. it was very cheap to maintain. this car is very fun to drive with its touchy gas pedal and quick exceleration.

acceleration - ok; braking - excellent; handling - excellent; built quality - no squeaks/rattles; interior - modern but the grey colour is a litlle bit dull; exterior - I like it; it is fun to drive but it is not a BMW. you can buy it.

I got this car in August of 2001, with 4 km's on it. I've racked up 360,000km's on it and have had VERY little trouble ever, and I can honestly say that I've never given a car more abuse than I have this one. This last august (2007) it came off of a beautiful trip to Vancouver island with no problems at all!

* Performance – acceleration is fair seems to be as powerful as my 1999 Acura Integra, braking and handling are as expected for an entry-level car. * Build Quality – it hasn't needed repairs since purchasing it, though it has over 170,000 Km. No squeaks, but the shocks are beginning to have rattles. * Appearance – for an entry-level, base Toyota (not well known for their body styling, especially since the demise of the Supra and Celica) the styling insn't bad at all. Interior styling isn't anything to write home about. * Cost of Ownership – gas mileage is well above average. I'm not the most conservative driver and I still get 40+ miles to the gallon. Maintenance has yet to become an issue. Everything works just fine, as expected. * Fun Factor – is this car fun to drive? Definitely, yes! It is not a high-powered beast, but it goes right along and manages the corners quite well.

I bought this car new in 2001 and have been driving it for 8 of those years with no payments. Quality is generally good. I have had to make a few repairs but nothing major or more than $1,000. Good gas mileage for its age.
