1978 Toyota Corolla Reviews, Pricing & Specs

I like the light feel of the steering. The engine is a 1300 but has a nice crisp sound to it. RWD make's the car real fun to go dirt drifting. seemingly unbreakable motor and gearbox. done over 250k with no trouble. I dislike the availability of parts for this car, panels are not an issue, but the little detailed items such as interior are hard to come by. As it is getting older it is getting more and more rare. Great car to look at. It is a Coupe my model. 4 speed manual. great fun to drive am always smiling even in the event of road rage. Mileage is great being a 4 cylinder, 400 kilometers to a tank of 40 liters. Maintenance not much required, just your usual service. which you can do your self because the mechanics are so simple to work on. you cant stuff up hehe

These Corollas were the very definition of cheap, RELIABLE, and economical transportation. This was the beginning of the end of Detroit dominance.
