That fact that you can't figure out how to adjust the radio settings is a YOU problem not an issue with the car. ...
These are like zombie cars.. you can shoot them and drive them off a cliff and they'll just keep on running
Hahah probably the best comparison for this car
This is going to be my next car. It's Perfect for me. I always wanted one.
great review
great review I'm heading to the dealership tmrw for a test drive
Yeah I love that color contrast. I like it on the Fors Edge sport. It looks really aggressive.
The interior would be the same with minor differences but I would go with the XRS for the little bump in power. The larger 2.4 engine only give 22/30 compared to the S engine that gives 26/34. So it depends on what matters more to you.
My future car
If you are looking at the "s" specifically, make sure it has the Entune system with all of the cool apps. Also, buy this weekend!
Just bought one of these a week ago. It's NOT a BMW. But it's NOT $35K either. MPG has been amazing. MUCH better than the Camry I traded in. Look, it's small, inexpensive, extremely reliable and fun to drive (and a lot easier to park!). Corolla engineers get a lot of credit for evolving this car from a drab little matchbox into a sleek little package.
I'm looking at the Toyota website and unless you add your own seats as an aftermarket addition, the seats are the same except black cloth. The severing wheel difference is audio and Bluetooth controls, no change in the shape or quality of the wheel.
Which model are you looking to test drive? The S or another?
Thanks! I try.
Yes, it is extremely tinny sounding and when you up the bass for compensation, it waters the audio down to unlistenable.
to adjust the audio stystem you go to the raido and in the bottom left corner there should be a speaker looking symbol. push the speaker symbol and you can adjust the audio
The Pandora app uses your phone's data plan and you would use your Pandora account to listen to your stations after you set up the Entune app on your phone. I would check out Toyota's website for more information.
the blue is really nice too but prefer the white, add tint, and chrome 10 spoke wheels & it's perfect (with a little upgrade on the stereo speakers & amp)
I agree totally.
You can adjust the treble and base with the Setup button on the right side
You are hating on this for very very minuscule things, and your review was not helpful. You spent more time talking about your opinion on the body style and touch screen than you did talking about the quality of materials and drive style
I test drove the Corolla S this morning, really enjoyed the quietness of the ride, but not really much of a "S" so might go with the LE and grab some after market rims because the ones here where I am at all had hub caps.
@CreativeReviewsP in your opinion would this make a good first car for me, i am 18 years old and my parents want to get me a car that i can drive around a quite busy city for college/years aftercollege and i am wondering if this car or scion tc 2012 would be appropiate for a first car?
im leasing a 2013 nautical blue one on Monday as a first car im getting the upgraded wheels with the sunroof hopefully this 1.8 has enough balls for me.
At 6:04 there is a big button that says AUDIO, thats what you press to adjust the treble and bass
@1325831 yes, they are exactly the same car with engine specs.
its not ridiculous, the Corolla is a very reliable car and if you like it, that's your preference. As for the color, I have always thought that silver is a very plain color on cars, along with white. My favorite for the "S" would be red, my favorite for the regular would be a dark charcoal.
Let's hear it then, what do you think about the Corolla specifically.
did a review with ipad. that's swag
To bad you are not coming here to my showroom. I could have set up a great deal for you. I actually work for a Toyota dealership if that was apparent haha. Koons Toyota at Tyson's Corner, VA.
dos it have the same exhaust sound like LE model ?!
I understand that you have a Corolla and do not want it to be seen in a bad light but the car is not one to compete with any of the others in its segment. The engine is great and will last but we live in the interior of the car, it has to be a great experience inside and out. Toyota was cutting corners to save itself money, there is no questions about that. As soon as the new redesign comes out, the 2013 and older models will see a larger than normal discount.
Going into a review or critique, I try not to have all the information about a car to make things feel like a natural discovery while I go through the vehicle and learn new things. Its the same reason why I don't know as much as professional reviewers. I didn't know I wouldn't like this car so much. Either way, I think with there being good and positive reviews out there, there should be some negative as well.
Ether is fine, but you might consider ownership costs, e.g. insurance etc.
I'm really looking into this Car and was wondering if it's possible to get a Corolla LE with Dark Charcoal Fabric on the interior that comes with the Corolla S?
This thing doesn’t die
🔥
I wish the honda civic had the same kind of outside look cuz in my opinion the civic has more toys on the inside.
My 02 Nissan sentra had the gas switch in the same place
"For more...gloves." hahahaha! I don't know why, but that was hilarious to me. Also, the LE model DOES have Bluetooth: both audio streaming and hands-free phone (I have one.)
Just wish they upped the Horsepower on this vehicle. Even if to 150 i would be happy.
the white Corolla S is the best color with its black grille
Looking back at this car months after I reviewed it originally, the Corolla is looking more and more like a disappointment when compared to other vehicles in its class. The Cruze is slowly making a name for itself in the interior, the engine is still iffy, the redesigned Civic is gains more of the fans it lost with its poor 2012 redesign, and the Focus is the most exciting from its base model all the way to its true sports alteration, the ST. A redesign has to happen for this car to compete.
considering s or le still not sure
Big difference in car in middle east and american version there is not optional bodykit you have to install it after getting the car no screen but we have folding side view mirrors the armrest is covered in upolystyrene and there is rear armrest and the rim here are chrome optional or the same but corolla i thinks corolla should give everything not leaving stuffs i have corolla and it preety much is different then american
does anyone know what the paint color is of the corolla in this video i need to buy a replacement front right quarter panel
Magnetic gray metallic
Pocket Sony Cybershot camera.
Right....!! Telling ya. Im not the only one with the same opinion.
i can't show you any definite evidence right now of what the 2013 Corolla will look like but by working for Toyota I was able to see what it will look like and it is significantly redesigned. Unlike the Camry, which became boxier, while trying to be sporty, the 2013 Corolla looks sportier but in a good way. In a way it looks like a cross between the current generation Homda Civic and a Lexus model.
The corolla is anything but fun to drive, go test drive a Mazda3 or Ford Focus and you will quickly see the blandness behind the wheel that the corolla offers.
Which is better XRS / S?
hell yeah
yes...you hate on the nav. screen too much, honda and many other cars have a glare on the screen view, it depends which angle you look at it, also you can park the car a certain way so that the sun isn't in the way, if you're in bumper to bumper traffic just suck it up...you'll live.....
This might be my first car. Still debating though.
how does the pandora work ? :)
We both know that we are entitled to an opinion but why don't you hope people follow my opinion? I just hope this review helps people come to their own decision on their choice vehicle.
is the audio system really that bad?
Man i want a mustang or Corolla haha hard to choose :/
I wouldn't call the seats in the S bucket seats, it's the same seats as in the L and LE. Same goes for the steering wheel a shave off the bottom to make it flat and adding the knobs on the 2 and 10 doesn't make the wheel any better in reality. I can't say anything about the exterior styling because I'm just not a fan or if but a lot of people like it but the interior is cheap and when the redesign comes out Toyota will most likely acknowledge that this is a sub par car and fix a lot about it.
To much hate we need more love!
Lol what? This is a fine review especially on a car like this thats very hard to make seem exciting.
This or the Scion TC would be great choices as a first car. These are both made by Toyota so most likely it will come down to styling. My favorite of the two would be the TC.
You may be right about the reputation they had but as of now, Toyota is being seen as a company that cuts corners. The engine will still last but the cheap interior materials will be worn down before you are finished with your car. You say the more features they add leads to having more computers controlling this features and thus leads to more problems, that may be right if they can't handle the new tech but you are still saying that they lack features. It's a cheap and old model.
No, unfortunately that dark interior is only available on the Corolla S.
Nice review, nice car. Most reviews when I see the automatic transmission, I jump to the next review...I'll hang out for awhile...I wish more people would understand all the benefits to driving a manual. I bet they would sell more. Well then again, people are getting more lazy...
Life has enough worries to add the worry of shifting gears to the list.
This review makes the corolla look like shit.. I drive one of these and this is a pretty decent car and nothing like you said LOL i hope people dont follow the opinions in this video
I completely agree with you on these new Corollas. Yes it's a Toyota and they have a good reputation, but they really have cheaped out and so has Honda which is a real shame. I don't understand how Toyota can still sell these with 4 speed automatics when everyone else is using at least a 5 or 6 speed. There are far better choices out there for what you'd pay for this car and you'd get so much more for your money. Same goes for the once cool Civic, which is no longer king of the compacts.
Durability. Toyota stuck with the 4-speed automatic while Nissan's reputation took a major hit with their shitty CVTs. Even the Elantra has had major engine problems. In the end, Toyota is still the winner.
Why not get a LE or even a CE model and put the wing and body parts on yourself to make it an S model. The whole kit is pretty cheap.
+eda396 my thoughts exactly. It's was a waste of money.
Of course, my mistake.
Lol good review funny as well
My family just got a 2013 Dodge Dart Rallye and that car is just awesome. The interior is light years ahead of this and the Civic's in terms of both quality and styling. Not to mention the exterior looks a hell of a lot better and it actually performs with the turbo and 6 speed manual! It handles great, has good power, and still manages 39 mpg highway. If you're looking at compacts, look at the new Dart, Focus, Cruze, Elantra, and the new Sentra looks pretty nice. All are much better values.
S. The LE looks like granny's car.
I would think Toyota after its negative publicity over quality control problems that they would step it up in the styling dept. The Camry and Corolla are blan in style and from a comparison advantage Ford and Chevrolet and BUick have come along way from hard plastics like in the Corolla. I agree with the guy speaking about hard plastics and geriatric styling. if a part breaks down, guess what they have to go to Japan to get the part hitting your wallet with expensive repairs
No there is, it's in the armrest.
i keep hearing that it has the same engine but some say that its improve in the S model. please can someone explain?
This car is exactly the same as the normal Corolla. Performance is not different.
Thanks
With a small amount of research into the car, most people could figure out how to work everything. The problem is that this wasn't intuitive. Thanks for sharing your opinion.
There's a new Corolla redesign coming late 2013, wait for it. The Corolla's interior is cheap and I'm sure Toyota will address it. This way you'll get a car that lasts forever and hopefully it won't feel like a cheap mess. I hate that armrest...
I need the car how do I get it
You don’t
I want this asy first car 😀I'm 17
duck shit chris you sound 12
How much could this cost by now
🤷♂️
That was too obvious for me haha
Yes, until this Corolla and other models from Toyota are updated, every single one of these are trying to feed from their namesake and are lacking in quality.
heavy hoods are annoying. lol
I just traded in my Corolla for a Camry....The Corolla I drove was seriously the worst car I have ever driven and I owned/leased 15. Get a Camry instead!!
I would like better a toyota corolla LE
👍
DisAgreed.I own a corolla 2013 and this review did not point out the nice features of the "s" version.like the bucket seats, racing style steering wheel and the fog lights. This car is amazing.looking at what corollas used to be, they have changed a lot. Toyota has steped up the corolla. Lets see how the 2014 s looks like..take my advise this car is worth every dollar.buy it with confidence, its a toyota it will last a long long time.
Wtf are you filming with? Lol
هل تبيع
This is a 10 year old video. It’s gone
On trust me, the materials in this generation were terrible and the drive style was floaty and boring.
The Chevy Cruze catches on fire and the steering wheel comes off. I'd rather have something I know I'm going to be able to count on when I need it. Shovrolets are unreliable and cheaply built. Toyota is the way to go.
People may get mad at me for saying this but the Corolla, in recent years, has been a cheaply made attempt to capture the people who go from one generation of Toyota to another without taking the time to research the competition. It's a money grab from Toyota, its good business to deceive people to make more profit but it disgusts me as someone who loves car to see them release a subpar car with the Corolla name on it. Other manufacturers did it too but that doesn't make it right.
Toyota Corolla is a geriatric wall flower :(
(Corolla is Japanese for Flower)
I like Hyundai, shite Id even drive a Kia!!
GIVE ME LOL
@Detweiler18
You cant do a successful review on a vehicle unless you have a completely non-bias opinion.
Omg he's recording with a ipad.-.-
Chevy cruze is beter
I kind of have a feeling you just don't like the corolla then why make a damn review about it? Don't waste your time doing something you don't like doing. Of course, it's just my opinion but I bet I'm not the only one with the same opinion after watching this video. Liked for the video but disliked for the commentary.
MANUAL NOT AUTO PLEASE. makes the car
No one car(e)s
