Pros: What do you like about 2008 Toyota Corolla?
I like it, had a 2004 before and liked it.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Toyota Corolla?
Driver's side window is off the guide and rumbles on the way down. On the way up it is ok.

Also, the on board computer in the engine went completely and I had to be towed to the Toyota dealer, fully covered, tow and all, great 2010 camry loaner by dealer.

No other problems so far.

It is noisy when at highway speeds (wind noise).

Needs more front driver leg room, seats are not the greatest.

Could use better brakes up front don't really stop well.

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Toyota Corolla?
I love the black classy color of the 2008 corolla and that it is a very smooth riding car and the seats are comfortable. I like the extra under the radio storage and the 6 cd player.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Toyota Corolla?
Definately!! putting a vinyl center console instead of the current material one which will get dirty over time! I also would improve the fan sound..the highest heat/ac setting is so loud! I also would include a visor holder for sunglasses, etc..

2008 Toyota Corolla Review:

great basic affordable car that can operate for less than 10 cents per mile.

2008 Toyota Corolla Review:
I got the car for 1500 off the sticker...Toyota incentive. In this climate of gas consumption, this is one of two or three cars that everyone should be driving.
