2001 Toyota Corolla S. The "S" is the top of the line performance model. This car runs and drives like new. The car has new tires, automatic trans, ice cold air, and has always been meticulously maintained. All of the fluids (radiator, transmission, power steering) were replaces at 111, 000 miles, oil has been changed every 5,000 miles. The interior is super clean. There is a very nice stereo with remote, and it has a blue tooth microphone for "hands-free" phone calls. The "S" model interior is really cool. The S steering wheel rim and the matching shift lever boot, are outfitted in black leatherette with red stitching for a sporty look. The black and red motif continues on the instrument panel, with red-on-black lettering and a Celica-like honeycomb background. Storage space, important in a small car, is good, with a large glovebox and two- level console box. Power windows, locks, and mirrors are part of the "Value Package" option group, along with air conditioning. The manually-adjustable front bucket seats have firm, supportive foam padding and grippy cloth upholstery. Rear seat head and leg room should be adequate for anyone under 5' 10". The trunk is larger than expected, and has a protected latch to prevent damage to luggage. The Corolla's engine has the specifications to excite enthusiasts and the frugality to enthuse the masses. It's a 1.8- liter dual overhead cam, 16-valve four-cylinder with Toyota's VVT- i variable valve timing system for a broader rage of power and lower emissions. Its maximum 125 horsepower at 5800 rpm and 126 lb-ft of torque at 4000 rpm, and sporty exhaust growl don't tell the complete story. Thanks to the variable valve timing, power is strong right off the line, and fades only slightly at the top of the rev range. This car also gets 37 mpg!! It's a super reliable car that will last for years to come. The car looks great, but has some minor cosmetic flaws. There is a couple of small rust spots (primarily on the edge of the driver door), the front bumper has a crack, and the rear bumper has been pushed in on the corner. I purchased this car as a commuter to replaced my aged Honda Accord, but my wife decided that I will be taking her car, and she will be getting a new one. The NADA Retail price on this car is $4,600, so this is a great deal!! Vehicle sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty expressed or implied. It is the buyers responsibility to inspect the vehicle prior to purchase. Any shipping must be arranged by the buyer.
