Used Toyota Corolla for Sale in Irvine, CA

The Corolla is a budget car with higher features packed into it. It has features like temporary turn signal, which is normally only seen on more expensive cars. It also has enough horsepower to transport five people comfortably on long distances.

My corolla, like all other corollas, is very gas efficient and has a very long duration. My brother bought it in 2009, and I bought it off of him after he was done with it. I don't really care that much about speed or looks, so if you are into that, then this car probably wouldn't be for you. The car has over 80k miles on it, and it still doesn't break down like other cars. I rarely have to go to the mechanic, because it is a sturdy car. The check engine light is rarely on, and I don't have to change the oil that often.

I bought my 2010 Corolla in 2011 used with 32,000 miles on it. I now have 142,000 miles on it and have never had any major repairs needed. With regular maintenance, I'm only now, after 110,000 miles, needing to do some more major maintenance (struts and timing belt). In addition, it's gotten me consistently good gas mileage while not burning any oil. I've used this car in a variety of driving conditions, rain, 120+ degree weather, in-city, rural, mountain, 450-mile road trips and freeway, and it's always been reliable. With all of that said about the pros, now I'll talk about the cons. For starters, the oil filter requires an additional add-on beyond the standard grip and makes it a little more annoying to change your own oil. In addition, the ergonomics can be a little uncomfortable on long trips (anything over four hours of driving). My other issue I've had is with the radio. When the weather reaches extremes (above 100 degrees or below 40) it will often freeze up, and if you interact with it, it'll just turn off and spit out any disc. Lastly, while nothing major, I have had three or four recalls needed on the car, which can be quite annoying.
