Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Corolla?
The pick up and go is wonderful. The inside is very well crafted. Everything fits and I love the 6 Disc CD Player. The styling is up to date. We have an LE and love the wood trim and everything.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Corolla?
Better Cup Holders in the back seat. Cup holders in front seat area could be a little farther apart. A trunk remote would be great.

Adjustible cup holders. Better looking wheel covers that don't stick out an inch from the rim. They look like stick on hubs.

Needs to be quieter. Engine runs high when started and the muffler is a little load.

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
The 06 Corolla S is a very nice car for the price and for the gas milleage. This car is the perfect size. Not too big or too small. Seats in back are big and roomy.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Corolla?
I like the change oil indication light that reminds you to change the oil every 5000 miles. I also like the ground effects, spoiler, moonroof, etc. that come in the sports package, which give the car such a great look.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Corolla?
Just a little more leg room... I car pool to work and if you have really tall people in the car, they could feel a bit cramped.

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
The Corolla S gets excellent gas mileage, which makes for a great commuter car. It's really fun to drive and has a smooth, comfortable ride. I've received many good complimants from numerous passangers. With the S edition, you not only have fun driving this car, but you also do it in style. Who could have guessed that a Corolla could look this sporty and sharp? I absolutely love my Corolla S and would definitly buy another one if I was looking for a new car. I have had no problems with the car so far.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Corolla?
Better tires when buying it new. Can't wait to wear the dealer ones out to get better tread.

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
This is my 7th corolla ,but it is by far my favorite. I think it is very peppy, it looks great, to its earlier models, my last being a 2000. I look forward to many years of fun driving with my fully loaded S 2006.

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
I just bought this car as a replacement for an aging Lebaron and can't be happier. It is very quiet and rides very nicely. My only gripe would be that ABS should be standard in this day and age but overall this is a great car for what you pay.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Corolla?
Reliability, safety features, gas mileage, interior design, audio system, air conditioning, acceleration, double-center console

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Corolla?
I would REALLY appreciate a telescopic steering wheel. I also would like the option of the interior finish, I personally don't like the fake wood, much less in an entry-level car. ABS brakes should be standard.

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
In the cons section, this web site states the Corolla is a bit pricey... I don't think so if you consider that this is not your typical entry level car. This Corolla doesn't need audio upgrades (I got the one with six speakers), air conditioning is powerful, SUPER reliable, gas mileage is wonderful, and it doesn't get stolen as often as the Hondas. Ah, and did I mention it is actually powerful? And do not just look at raw numbers. If you want to compare fairly, divide the HPs by the weight of the car, and you get a Corolla that has very decent oomph. Now, if the price for all that is an extra grand, so be it. It will truly make you forget about car problems... And you will feel smarter.

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
I really like the Toyota Corolla S. The vehicle has great pick up and drives very quietly. The features such as the clock, wipers, radio set up are very easy to figure out - therefore user friendly.

Telescoping steering wheel, better looking wheels, standard ABS

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
It is my first Toyota car. I really like it the ride is good the economy is great. The only thing I do not like is the position of the driver seat in relation to the steering wheel with the seat back it is uncomfortable to reach the wheel. It definitely needs a telescoping steering wheel. ABS and four wheel disc brakes should be standard. Beyond that great car.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Toyota Corolla?
wood finished interior, external temperature display, 2 trip odometers and height adjustable driver seat. I am also impressed by the sporty look of the car.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Corolla?
Antilock braking system should be a standard feature and not an optional one. The external rearview mirrors should have a heating feature, which would make driving safer in winter/snow conditions

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
the car has a very nice interior and has excellent driving comfort. The car comes with some excellent features, like height adjustable driver seat, 6- CD changer, wooden type interiors etc. One of the features that I would havbe liked the car to have is the Anti Lock Braking system. At present it is an optional feature.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Toyota Corolla?
Make the car for the USA not Japan. We have big people here.

2006 Toyota Corolla Review:
So far after 1700 miles I only HATE 2 things. 1. The pedals for gas/brake/shifting were designed only for people with size 5 or smaller shoes. My Size 13's are constanly getting tangled in the tiny pedals. 2. Shifting into 2nd gear seems to be a challenge for this clutch as it tends to grind loudly unless the pedal is press extra hard to the floor when shifting. I would buy and automatic possibly but never a manual with this pedal dimensions and clutch.
