I bought a 99 Corolla for $1,500.00. Someone hit it in an icy parking lot damaging every single panel and the insurance company totaled it giving me $4,000.00. Best investment I ever made.
Spenser B someone needs to hit my Camry so I can get 10,000$. I don’t want that to happen but I know I will probably twice as much for what it’s worth if the car were to ever get totaled. I want a newer Camry I have a 2010 LE with 180,000 miles and could use a new one. My current one is in good shape and everything but it’s a little old need something newer.
Hell no. My first car was a 97 Pontiac Bonneville out of high school and it was shit. I had it for 4 years and every year there was at least one major breakdown which left me stranded on the road. The first breakdown was with the upper intake gasket which flooded the engine with coolant. I sold that piece of shit then bought a 99 Corolla. It has 200,000 miles and has performed flawlessly. The only "major" repairs i've had to do is change the valve cover gasket and wheel bearing. Now I am retiring it because I am going to get a Tacoma pretty soon. I will never get anything that isn't Toyota ever again. They just work.
JT Shows Those are awesome but I am in the market for a truck as they are more useful than cars. Ive always wanted a Supra ever since I watched Fast and Furious 1 lol.
*DrinkMoWater* That's because you probably prefer looks over reliability. Any person that prefers a vehicle that simply works will choose a Toyota or Honda over anything else.
Toyota Corolla... That one car where you're thinking "Meh, I'll drive it until I get enough for a better car." But then you see it 30 years later, still running, and you're thinking, "Oh Johnny is gonna love this."
When I was 18 I borrowed my friends Corolla to take my girlfriend to Steak N Shake on Christmas Eve to visit my friend, the cook. At the time I didnt have a license and my friends dad found out about it, got pissed and then made me bring the car back about 30 minutes into our "date" I then got a hand job on the way home. Thanks 1998 Toyota Corolla
Every girlfriend I had in high school had a Corolla like this... I remember seeing my first live titty in the front seat of one and then throwing up because of nervousness... That’s my Corolla story.
I remember buying a half ounce of weed every week in my old dealers 99 corolla when I was still in high school. The distinct ticking of a thoroughly neglected engine could be heard a few blocks away, and that was the sound of pure dank kush arriving after a hard day of doing oil changes at a lube shop. Hearing that sound would always put a smile on my face, as I turned towards it seeing large clouds of smoke pouring out of the windows of that piece of shit barreling down the street going 30 over the limit. He would slam on his brakes the car literally screeching to a halt, and I would get in the back seat as most of the time his buddy 'Chet' would be ripping a fat bong rip in the passenger seat I'd hand him the money and he'd hand me a bag that I worked oh so hard for the mutual trust between our stoned asses was unheard of as most other dealers were scummy bastards that would rob you the first chance they got. I'd be lying if I said I remember those times fondly, because I really don't remember much of it as I was high nearly 24/7 looking back I see how wildly impulsive, and irresponsible my life was at that time, and it really makes me think about the current state of my life, and how things could have been much worse... All these memories, and self reflection over watching a video review on a fucking corolla.
Just passed my 01 on to my sister for her first car, and I’m happy to know as long as she puts a litre of oil in with every fuel fill, it’ll run til the wheels rust off
I sold my 2003 Corolla passed down to me for my graduation back in 2010 to a dad buying a car for his son because the champ graduated from high school last year. The cycle continues.

Own a 99 Corolla with 290k. I've been waiting for years to buy a new commuter car but this thing keeps going & going with just minimal maintenance. Once the wheels fall off I'm buying a band new 4runner with all the money I've saved. I already own my own home. Thanks 1999 Corolla!
+Evan93 But, every Toyota car at the lowest end are the hardest one to break, because they don't have anything that can break easily. Like hiliux for example. Anything that are at higher class than that will break.
I've had my 2000 for 6 years. She has 225k and burns little to no oil. She has had zero engine or transmission problems too. :) I will only ever buy Toyota in the future.
I bought a 1997 Corolla with 150k for $700 myself. But I had to replace the water pump and timing belt, thing is now running like champ. Still drove it for a while with a busted water pump though...lol
I'm looking at a 99 Corolla tomorrow actually...hope things go well. I'm still upset my LeSabre got moosed but I've always wanted a random japanese shitbox sedan with a stick and a 4-banger.
haha yea, my 98 has broken all 4 door handles inside & outside. Good thing they are somewhat easy to replace, I did all 8 on my own just by watching some videos.
Both my 93's rear doors cant be opened from the inside or outside so whenever we carpool in it, rear passengers just enter from the front ala coupé, i never get it fixed because why?😁
my identity never was tied to what car i drive (Tacoma). i know posers that need flashy cars with big payments. i'm not a car guy. just give me something that stays out of repair shops. that seems to be Toyota.
That's why we keep moving forward. Love my 99 Tacoma. Just waiting for the Delorean to show up. My favorite movie is back to the Future. Marty had a 85 Tacoma, I have a 99 Tacoma. WHERE THE HECK IS MY TIME MACHINE 😁
8th gen Corollas are THE cariest cars. It's literally an A to B machine and nothing else. Look up "car" in the dictionary and next to the definition, you'll see a picture of a fucking 8th gen Corolla.
my bro and I laughed especially hard at the chinese buffet line. because we had just gotten back home in his 2000 corolla, we ate at a local chinese buffet and we, ofcourse, had pizza.
People took for granted when they receive this kind of car when they're young. I did too, but how I miss this car. Care free, cheap to run, own, fix. Yes the car is boring, but I know this car will get me from point A to point b no matter how long the trips is, and in a comfortable manner. I can't do that with newer car I currently own. A small chicken shit would trigger my OCD. Not with this car. Need a alignment? I'll do it when I feel like it. I dint something? Tis but a scratch. Until I let it go I realize I lost my most dependable tool. Same feel when Mr.Regular lost his Echo.
+chunky soup You just described my relationship with my cavalier. Damn that thing was so reliable. Many Michigan winter blizzards were roughed with the FWD just to make it to some random high school party. memory lane lmao
I felt bad about selling the _Family Heirloom_ 84 Caprice to the towing business after it hit a telephone pole. Never be a jerk like that oncoming driver was, _please._ Argh. Dad didn't just hit a pole, the car went down an embankment. (He's fine overall, BTW; just seat belt rash and aches.)
this pretty much is the car I grew up with, same color same year. these car can be fun if you toss it right. it's greatest car for someone just to have.
These Corollas were nice which is why it's so strange to me that the Camry of similar vintage could be such a complicated beast. Lots of hidden things in the I4's engine bay, if we also conveniently ignore that the 5S-FE grenades after about 180,000 miles if you don't switch to FULL SYNTHETIC OIL at 105,000 miles.
My Corolla is my favorite car I’ve driven so far. When driving it got a little boring i through on a full straight pipe and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made. You can floor it for 10 seconds making a shit ton of noise without even breaking the speed limit.
Hell, I don't even have a Corolla, and I have memories. I saw a dude with a pocket-pipe trying to light a bowl of weed while driving 75 on the freeway in one of these babies - Not sure if he had too much already, or not enough, but the driver-side window was rolled down and blowing the flame of the lighter out and he didn't realise that was the issue. I was laughing so hard I could barely see thru the tears! Impressive fore-arm strength tho.
Lmao I would bring weed and pipe and hit it on road/freeway all the time on my Toyota FJ. Good times. I even went through high water(water touching hood) during a hurricane to pick up some weed lmao. I still have old snapchats of it. Got behind on payments 3 years later after losing my job. The bank took my baby :( but lots of memories.
Yeah that actually may have been my father and that is not a joke or a lie in any way. He had a 98 he got from a old lady down the street. It was basically perfect besides paint peel. Then someone SMASHED it all to hell one day when he was working at someone’s house. Moved the car almost 600 feet down the road with the back left of the car completly pancaked. The dude drove off and my dad only had liability insurance, and basically no money at that time for a new car. He did what he could to fix the body, which was honestly a lot. Made himself a tail light and got it to pass inspection. Then I got it for cheap having gotten it running after replacing ignition coils, now it’s in my good friends hands until he gets back on his feet. It’s really like a hard times helper more than a car. It still runs no problem besides being very very ugly. 200k and counting!
When God created the world he was worried three things might outlast him: 1.) Coronavirus 2.) Human stupidity 3.) The 1999 Toyota Corolla Edit: I am selling my 99' Automatic corolla with 220k miles in Portland, OR for 1500 HMU in comments. (December, 2020)
My first car was a 93 Corolla. Hand me down from grandpa. My second car was a 14 Corolla S. Loved it to death. Now I drive a Civic SI. I still miss my Corollas. The power of familiarity.
Love the video except for the reliability. They are 100% bulletproof and I know this from experience. Sure every car has its faults but the Corolla just doesn't have as many as most other cars.
+Travis Judd My 1998 Corolla LE Manual has 225,000 miles on it and has NEVER had a major problem with it. It just keeps on going. It's no looker but it's reliable as hell lol and for that reason alone I love it. Oh and it's a stick shift.......nuff said lol.
The Toyota corolla is an incredible first car or basically just a forever lasting car in general. It doesn't even matter what model year you get the corolla will not fail you
or in my case my 74 year old aunt who lives next door to me, my 02 Ford F150 drinks too much gas, she could care less long as you have it back before church. same car except it's the shit brown variant, she still has her hub caps, and it actually runs really well.
@@srphtygr Oh really? why do you want it? is it because it can fly? or because it can drive underwater? maybe because it has 4 wheels, yeah that might be it
Oh look, a comment from past me. It's 6 years later and I just bought a 1999 Corolla CE because I needed a car to drive and not break. I figure it'll hold me over until I can get something I like, but deep down I know I'll probably still be driving it ten years from now. It's the same colour as the one in the video and the dash storage cubby door is broken in the same way.
The beginning of this video is practically word-for-word the conversation my sister and I had when she asked what car she should get, minus the other car recommendations.
My Corolla story. I own a virtually identical 99 Corolla as the one in the review, except this one has more interior bits than my car came with. I bought it for 500 back in 2020 and as I found out it needed A LOT of work. Head gasket failure, o2 upstream failure, clogged catalytic converter, the aforementioned parking light issue, warped rotors up front, missing sway bar links, busted shocks, burnt out window motors up front. If it had been any other time I would of junked it but the DMV was booked for 6 months because of COVID so it was either eat the repair cost or sell the car, buy something else and just HOPE I don't get pulled over. Drove it for two months with the head gasket issue (Kids don't do this, but if you do just keep the 5qt jug in the backseat). So I repaired what I could afford and just sent it, learned how to wrench and as it turned out, this car is a fighter. I accidentally ran this car for 50miles on the highway with a quart of oil in the 1ZZ (I noticed the engine was chattier than usual), top 'er off and kept going, that was a year ago. The car currently sits at 284,540miles as of this comment and I have had no issues from it save for a loose battery terminal that gave me a heart attack once. Body is in good condition, paint is sunbaked because it was an El Paso car for 3/4th of it's life but outside of a cracked bumper it's great. Coming from MI you either buy domestic or you're looked at weird but the Corolla is a car everyone says "That's a good car." And as an owner the legend is true, I want to fully restore the car because it's been good to me. The headliner is falling apart because the car is almost as old as me and all my lower dash pieces were missing but all in all, amazing car, amazing in the sense of it works, all the time, every time. Even after a week of sitting the MI winter cold, it started. It will always be my go to recommendation and I don't plan on letting it go. Good job Toyota, you've kept me employed because of this car.
I got the 98 corolla LE in 2001 with 32k miles on it as my first car senior year in highschool. What an amazing car. The car was a tank in terms of taking abuse from a high schooler. The car is still running right now as it was sold to someone in my town. The only thing that went wrong with the car was it started rusting after about 15 years.

I keep re-watching these corolla reviews to remedy the my boredom with my Corolla. These videos and the sexy toyota pragmatic aesthetic keep me from selling it irresponsibly.
True if you're such a lousy driver that you don't even want anyone else to pass you because you just know they're having way more fun driving their car than you are
Today is November 2023. I still drive my 1998 Corolla. It has 237,000 miles on it. Chain-driven camshafts with no bs variable valve timing, it has port-injection, distributorless ignition, tuned aluminum intake manifold from the factory, Aisin 5-speed manual transmission, NO abs or traction control, independent rear suspension, the headliner fabric fell off long ago. Put some ruthenium spark plugs in it, NGK plug wires, change the oil with mobil1 synthetic every 3,000 miles it's still beautiful. Oh, and mechanical door locks and crank windows, too. Put in a pioneer radio with RDS so you can see the name of the song that's playing on 98rock Baltimore WIYY and enjoy the rest of your life.

It's all about that 2000 Camry :). That and my 1994 Toyota pick-up with the 22RE motor are the finest pieces of machinery I've had the pleasure of owning.
My best friend had a corolla when we were in our early twenties. We drank. Heavily. We drove that corolla to the absolute edge of its limits. It went off road. It took out mailboxes, jumped curbs onto peoples front lawns, toted liquor and contraband while being driven with absolute reckless abandon. It never. Gave. Up. I salute you, Toyota corolla.
I own a 1998 "Chevy" Prizm, 253K and counting, 1.8L manual shift. Meticulous maintenance. Car is no slouch even to this day, gets zero respect and will embarrass half the cars on the road that think they are quick. Best car I have ever owned-no contest. A/C still blows cold too. Corolla's are the epitome of mass production assembly line masterpieces.
Absolutely shook when you mentioned Perry County bc I live in Perry County and got my 2000 Corolla last year as a graduation gift😂😂 Shit I just got stereotyped to the T damn
After a long day of classes and studying in the university library, with fatigue you make the long walk back to your Corolla to drive home. But before you put the keys in the ignition, you shut the door and let yourself scream at the top of your lungs for as long as you need to. You remind yourself that it's only 2 quarters left until you graduate and pray that the light at the end of this dark tunnel that's sometimes been the only thing carrying you on is indeed real. Finally out of breath, you sit back into the driver's seat and compose yourself before making the drive home back to your parent's place, hopefully before midnight for once
Something I've learned over the years is that if someone asks you about which car to get, it's a nice gesture, but they'll probably ignore your advice and get the vehicle they were thinking about getting before they asked you. Shades is now driving that Pontiac Sunfire.

yeah i got 98 corolla with 108 horsepower, 1.6 liter engine and gear shift. Easy drive, 196 top speed and never broken
A 2019 Volkswagen polo 1.6tdi only has 80 horse power, European cars are a joke!!! 😡

People took for granted when they receive this kind of car when they're young. I did too, but how I miss this car. Care free, cheap to run, own, fix. Yes the car is boring, but I know this car will get me from point A to point b no matter how long the trips is, and in a comfortable manner. I can't do that with newer car I currently own. A small chicken shit would trigger my OCD. Not with this car. Need a alignment? I'll do it when I feel like it. I dint something? Tis but a scratch. Until I let it go I realize I lost my most dependable tool. Same feel when Mr.Regular lost his Echo.
Feel the same way about my 88 grand marquis
Should have never let it go
+chunky soup You just described my relationship with my cavalier. Damn that thing was so reliable. Many Michigan winter blizzards were roughed with the FWD just to make it to some random high school party.
memory lane lmao
I felt bad about selling the _Family Heirloom_ 84 Caprice to the towing business after it hit a telephone pole. Never be a jerk like that oncoming driver was, _please._ Argh. Dad didn't just hit a pole, the car went down an embankment. (He's fine overall, BTW; just seat belt rash and aches.)
this pretty much is the car I grew up with, same color same year. these car can be fun if you toss it right. it's greatest car for someone just to have.
These Corollas were nice which is why it's so strange to me that the Camry of similar vintage could be such a complicated beast. Lots of hidden things in the I4's engine bay, if we also conveniently ignore that the 5S-FE grenades after about 180,000 miles if you don't switch to FULL SYNTHETIC OIL at 105,000 miles.
The level of Americana wrapped up in these reviews would make a grown man weep.
Yeah , I had to get a box of tissues myself....
My Corolla is my favorite car I’ve driven so far. When driving it got a little boring i through on a full straight pipe and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made. You can floor it for 10 seconds making a shit ton of noise without even breaking the speed limit.
Me been a car mechanic apprentice. All my student friends "What car should I get?" Me: Toyota corolla or a civic
You say Corolla, but they go and find a 'super deal' on a Sunfire, it breaks down immediately, and then they complain!
My hood latch is stuck, I need help with getting open; my transmission fluid is low as well, please HELP
I always recommend civic or Miata. 'I want to get into modification, but I want reliability'. Miata or civic. You'll get jokes, but it'll run forever.
@@acerbicgeoff7821 just like the jokes. Lol i thought about getting a miata cuz its rwd and a 4banger. Or a tercel. Cuz... why not lol
Somebody said I should get a Civic. I said fuck it and got a Taurus. Sure it's got a few problems but nothing bad. I couldn't be happier with it.
Hell, I don't even have a Corolla, and I have memories. I saw a dude with a pocket-pipe trying to light a bowl of weed while driving 75 on the freeway in one of these babies - Not sure if he had too much already, or not enough, but the driver-side window was rolled down and blowing the flame of the lighter out and he didn't realise that was the issue. I was laughing so hard I could barely see thru the tears! Impressive fore-arm strength tho.
Fflawed omg I just cried tears reading this 🤣 I can picture that so perfectly I love it
Lmao I would bring weed and pipe and hit it on road/freeway all the time on my Toyota FJ. Good times. I even went through high water(water touching hood) during a hurricane to pick up some weed lmao. I still have old snapchats of it. Got behind on payments 3 years later after losing my job. The bank took my baby :( but lots of memories.
Did that in a 92 two door Sentra, passenger window failed open so. And my knee driving game is on point.
Yeah that actually may have been my father and that is not a joke or a lie in any way. He had a 98 he got from a old lady down the street. It was basically perfect besides paint peel. Then someone SMASHED it all to hell one day when he was working at someone’s house. Moved the car almost 600 feet down the road with the back left of the car completly pancaked. The dude drove off and my dad only had liability insurance, and basically no money at that time for a new car. He did what he could to fix the body, which was honestly a lot. Made himself a tail light and got it to pass inspection. Then I got it for cheap having gotten it running after replacing ignition coils, now it’s in my good friends hands until he gets back on his feet. It’s really like a hard times helper more than a car. It still runs no problem besides being very very ugly. 200k and counting!
When God created the world he was worried three things might outlast him:
1.) Coronavirus

I figure it'll hold me over until I can get something I like, but deep down I know I'll probably still be driving it ten years from now. It's the same colour as the one in the video and the dash storage cubby door is broken in the same way.

My Corolla story. I own a virtually identical 99 Corolla as the one in the review, except this one has more interior bits than my car came with. I bought it for 500 back in 2020 and as I found out it needed A LOT of work. Head gasket failure, o2 upstream failure, clogged catalytic converter, the aforementioned parking light issue, warped rotors up front, missing sway bar links, busted shocks, burnt out window motors up front. If it had been any other time I would of junked it but the DMV was booked for 6 months because of COVID so it was either eat the repair cost or sell the car, buy something else and just HOPE I don't get pulled over. Drove it for two months with the head gasket issue (Kids don't do this, but if you do just keep the 5qt jug in the backseat). So I repaired what I could afford and just sent it, learned how to wrench and as it turned out, this car is a fighter. I accidentally ran this car for 50miles on the highway with a quart of oil in the 1ZZ (I noticed the engine was chattier than usual), top 'er off and kept going, that was a year ago. The car currently sits at 284,540miles as of this comment and I have had no issues from it save for a loose battery terminal that gave me a heart attack once. Body is in good condition, paint is sunbaked because it was an El Paso car for 3/4th of it's life but outside of a cracked bumper it's great. Coming from MI you either buy domestic or you're looked at weird but the Corolla is a car everyone says "That's a good car." And as an owner the legend is true, I want to fully restore the car because it's been good to me. The headliner is falling apart because the car is almost as old as me and all my lower dash pieces were missing but all in all, amazing car, amazing in the sense of it works, all the time, every time. Even after a week of sitting the MI winter cold, it started. It will always be my go to recommendation and I don't plan on letting it go. Good job Toyota, you've kept me employed because of this car.
I got the 98 corolla LE in 2001 with 32k miles on it as my first car senior year in highschool. What an amazing car. The car was a tank in terms of taking abuse from a high schooler. The car is still running right now as it was sold to someone in my town. The only thing that went wrong with the car was it started rusting after about 15 years.
I cannot POSSIBLY think of a more regular car lmao

True if you're such a lousy driver that you don't even want anyone else to pass you because you just know they're having way more fun driving their car than you are
Seems kinda biased ngl
Meanwhile in 1999 Japan, there was a Corolla trim level called 1.6 GT with 6spd stick and a Blacktop 4AGE motor.
My first car is a 1999 Toyota Corolla CE 5-speed manual transmission. It’s a great little car

Today is November 2023. I still drive my 1998 Corolla. It has 237,000 miles on it. Chain-driven camshafts with no bs variable valve timing, it has port-injection, distributorless ignition, tuned aluminum intake manifold from the factory, Aisin 5-speed manual transmission, NO abs or traction control, independent rear suspension, the headliner fabric fell off long ago. Put some ruthenium spark plugs in it, NGK plug wires, change the oil with mobil1 synthetic every 3,000 miles it's still beautiful. Oh, and mechanical door locks and crank windows, too. Put in a pioneer radio with RDS so you can see the name of the song that's playing on 98rock Baltimore WIYY and enjoy the rest of your life.

My best friend had a corolla when we were in our early twenties. We drank. Heavily. We drove that corolla to the absolute edge of its limits. It went off road. It took out mailboxes, jumped curbs onto peoples front lawns, toted liquor and contraband while being driven with absolute reckless abandon. It never. Gave. Up. I salute you, Toyota corolla.

After a long day of classes and studying in the university library, with fatigue you make the long walk back to your Corolla to drive home. But before you put the keys in the ignition, you shut the door and let yourself scream at the top of your lungs for as long as you need to. You remind yourself that it's only 2 quarters left until you graduate and pray that the light at the end of this dark tunnel that's sometimes been the only thing carrying you on is indeed real. Finally out of breath, you sit back into the driver's seat and compose yourself before making the drive home back to your parent's place, hopefully before midnight for once
