2003 Corolla After One Year
We are still in love with our 2003 Corolla S after one year of use. The car
is absolutely bullet proof. No problems....none...nada...zip.
We just took the car on a road trip and averaged about 33 MPG. The car
feels bigger on the inside than outward appearances suggest. I'm a slim
6'4" and never felt like I was cramped.
It rides and handles like a bigger car as well, smooth and quiet. But not
that waterbed feel of larger American cars.
We passed a lot of semi's on a single lane highway. The engine did not
behave like a typical 4 cylinder at all. It passes quite comfortably with
plenty of power.
It looks awesome in silver as well. HIGHLY recommended.

Re: 2003 Corolla After One Year
The car is smooth and quiet on the highway, reminiscent of a larger car.
VERY comfortable for long distance driving. The engine and road noise is
subdued, a very comfortable highway car..
IF you floor it...in order to pass on the highway or floor it from a stop to
drag race...then engine noise increases, but that's to be expected.
I got around 33MPG on the highway. Our route took us on a single lane
highway with lots of semi-truck traffic. I had to pass trucks constantly for
about 300 miles.
I am quite sure gas mileage would have been better had I not done so much
passing (with the CD blasting, the air conditioner cranking, and the sun
roof open!!).

Re: 2003 Corolla After One Year
I have a 2004 Corolla S in Titanium Silver and it is probably the
coolest vehicle I have driven in it's class. I did not have even the
slightest of problem for 4 months of ownership. I cannot hear a single
rattle or noise. The construction is that good. Give it a little time
and you will see the new Corolla would become the benchmark in compact
cars.
