Used 1987 Toyota Corolla FX16 Hatchback for Sale near Red Deer, AB
4.8 Overall rating
(8 reviews)I am still driving my FX16, awesome car. I bought it for $500 2nd owner of it, the lady i bought it off of used it through college, and then let it sit after she got a new car. The engine was locked up, got new new engine with 55k miles on it and dropped it in, had some problems with the fuel injection system but that was from sitting. The first couple months were rough though, had to carry tools and a case of ether around with me. LOL would be sitting on the side of the interstate cleaning out the fuel rail. But finally got all the junk run out of the gas tank and the engine, and it has run great. Had to replace shocks, radiator, a couple hoses, and a distributor. So it is def a win to me, awesome gas mileage, and cheap as heck to fill up even at 2.50 a gallon. I make other people cry. My AC even works still, and is colder than my wifes 2007 ford focus lol. Toyota makes the best cars.
I bought my FX-16 pre-rusted from the original owner in 1996 at 126500 miles, and it was a wonderfully powerful highway car and zippy rolling country road car. It has driven far longer than I imagined it would. Now (2010) at 194000 it's starting to get a little weak, but still zips along at higher RPMs. The car has been extremely reliable and drives wonderfully. I would like to invest more money in prolonging its life, but the body rust started in New England by the original owner is now quite bad in spots. It will be a very sad day when I have to retire the FX-16. The hatchback is very wide and useful, and can haul a lot. If they still made this exact car I would gladly buy 2 new ones tomorrow and never need to buy another car for the rest of my life.
the preformance isnt the best because its a 1.4 but it is a fun car to drive and has a lil bit of acceleration to it. it gets 30 miles to the gallon which is great the interior isnt the best but the exterior looks nice.
True compact but powerful car that gets you around with a good mileage.
FX16 5speed Hatchback white with black trim. 1985 has a Japanese replacement engine 20000 miles in 2005. Reuse is good. Wow no matter how I drive it, I still get 30mpg so I say may as well Zooom. The muffler on it reveberates when I'm around another rockin car and it's very tempting to race it. The other guy is shocked but I dont know if its because Im a 48 year old woman or that this sucky looking car really moves. My friend calls my Fx16 Dee's little secret. The great thing about it is that doesnt attract much unwanted attention so fewer tickets and no risk of jacking. Wish I knew of a comprable newer car. I'm looking at 97 del sol si's as a cheep replacement but it doesnt feel as tight. If you know of a newer ride as nice and economical as this one I'd love to know about it!! Happy cruisin!
