Great generation of Corolla. A nice blend of simplicity, reliability and good looks. Of course, it doesn't compare well on today's standards and expectations, but back then, and for many years, this generation was better than any before or after and held that distinction for quite a while. Still a few of these on the road, which is better than most other cars that old.

I have that exact same Corolla. Manual, same color, except mine is the base model so the truck panel garnish is gray plastic and my rear seats don't go down. I've waxed the exterior real good but only a new paint job will make it shine like it does in the video. 168k miles, all belts and major parts around the engine are brand new. New suspension and tires, too. Doesn't burn or leak a drip of oil. Engine bay and undercarriage is bone dry.

I seeked out this generation Corolla with a 1.8L engine and 5 speed after watching this video. It was very hard to find one within 500 miles of me. Eventually I found one 15miles away, it pretty much needed another engine to pass emissions due to the piston rings and few other things. If not for emissions, the car would be able run and start all the time.

I have never come across a bad comment on this car, it is incredible.

I just got a 1997 Geo Prizm Lsi with the Toyota 7a-fe engine and 5 speed manual that is in this toyota 1993 Corolla for $500, car has 168,000 miles and everything works, A/C is still icy cold, engine is smooth and 5 speed shifts perfect

This was my first car. Bought it new in 1993. It was LE version with 1.8 liters loaded. It ran like new all the way to 70k and my sister started driving it then we sold it after 12 years. This was the only car that was around the longest in the family.

My Mom bought her 93 DX 1.8l Corolla brand new, passed it to me and I've had it for 18yrs. It's been faithful reliable dependable so I wanted to pour some love back into it.

Still have my 1994 Toyota Corolla It’s one of the more rare top of the line models, same as the one in this test (nicer seats and fabric along with the red and amber insert in the center of the trunk between the taillights were as the lower models were just black plastic. Has to be one of, if not the best small car I have ever driven. Understated beauty. So well made and thought out. Even the interior plastics have an expensive look and feel to them. The car has so so so many miles on it, but still runs like a champ. (256k on the 1.8L and 4 speed auto) Only problem is being here in Pa...rust belt...she is rusting away. But still love it! It was repainted before I bought it years ago and it was done poorly so that doesn’t help. And I believe it was in an accident at some point. But the air conditioner is still ice cold! Lol I’d love to find another one of these with no rust! A low mile, clean, rust free Corolla in good shape is would still easily be worth $5000, even being 24 years old! I think this was about the highest high point Toyota had. Still great cars and trucks, but some of the styling choices they are making are questionable. I hope they go back to the understated beauty and cohesiveness they used in cars like this one day (Sorry for the long comment, just really have a soft spot for this wonderful car!)
