Best Reason to Buy the Toyota Corolla: Safety & braking
My previous car was a '98 buick and it had really bad rust and other issues such as the breaks, intake manifold and radiator. I bought this car used when the previous owner had it leased. I test drove a new one to compare them both and the older car was still performing like new. I haven't noticed the break issue yet and I realize that there is a recall on them, but I don't see them needing to be looked at when I don't live in the north where the problem occurs.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Toyota Corolla: Handling
There is currently an issue with some(?) corolla's where you have to do micro-movements on the wheel to keep this in place. There's an actual TSB out on it that can get this fixed however. And plus I have both hands on the steering wheel and I'd like to think I'm more than alert when driving. So yeah there's that.

Other Reasons to Buy the Toyota Corolla: Insurance & depreciation, Cargo capacity & towing

Best Reason to Buy the Toyota Corolla: Brand reputation & image
The nice thing about getting a Toyota as a rental is I feel pretty confident it won't have problems. In fact, there were no odd little quirks or oddities that I'm used to seeing due to the way rental cars are often treated.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Toyota Corolla: Powertrain performance
Performance was very sluggish. Part of the week I had it involved a long drive at highway speeds and the engine noise is extremely loud at 40mph or higher. I drive a CVT equipped Lancer that is much quieter and performs great.

Other Reasons to Buy the Toyota Corolla: Interior styling, Audio & nav systems, Materials & workmanship

Other Reasons Not to Buy the Toyota Corolla: Exterior styling, Quietness, Driving position & visibility

Best Reason Not to Buy the Toyota Corolla: Driving position & visibility
It is not easy to make sure that vehicles are not in your blind spots. It has a fairly large blind spot area especially on the passenger side
