r/COROLLA

I just got my first car (Toyota Corolla 1.6 2000) and I'm absolutely in love!

I plan on negotiating more if possible, but i want to know how much lower you all think i can realistically go. i am in the southern nevada area if that changes anything. it does have 55,998 miles BUT im not scared away because it is both CPO gold and its carfax shows zero accident and a pretty damn good maintenance routine.

Edit: Thank you all for your input! I’m probably going to both see how low i can get this while also seeing if i can get a new one for a good price. I’m also heavily debating a camry but the price difference is what gets me. not looking for a high monthly payment ideally >350/mo. any advice is welcome.

I have a 2022 SE and this is the second time this sound has happened. I’ve turned the AC off when it happened the first time and always turn off the music and that does nothing. And funny thing is, it started in the same exact street as last time and stopped on my street just like last time.

2027 Corolla Sedan announced, essentially another carry over model from the current generation. Changes include Inked replacing Midnight Black Metallic. There is also a new limited edition, 60th Anniversary Edition model. The 60th includes special badging, the Hybrid powertrain, distinct wheels (appears to be the SE/XSE wheels of the 2020-2022 Corolla), and red seats.

2021 Corolla
$15,400 sticker
$16,500 estimated OTD from dealer AI chatbot

71k miles. Clean CARFAX. Oil changed every 6,000 miles. Was a fleet car until sold at 6k miles. Owned by one other. Tires look new I think. Sunroof and push to start.

I’m a recent finance grad. Bank teller with credit analyst promotion in the works. Planning on moving out very soon.

I’m looking to keep payments below $200.

Should I be looking for something at 40k miles and in the $18,000 range? Any opinion is welcome.

Is this normal for parked?

17k otd for this beauty. had to drive 5 hours away to get her but well worth it. couldn’t haggle anyone below 16k +ttl in my state.

Every winter without fail my Corolla starts making this noise when temperatures dip below -20°C. And it only happens when idling while being in Drive, such as at red lights, or right before going into Park. If I shift into Neutral or Reverse the noise goes away.

Car drives fine, no lights, no nothing.

Just wondering if others had this as well and figured out what it is.

Edit: spelling

sales manager told me they are clearing inventory as 2027 models will arrive around end of this month.

I brought my 2020 Corolla LE into the dealership to take care of a recall. They call and tell me the front brakes are in critical need of service and quote me over $600 for it and want to start immediately. I already know this and have parts queued up for ordering. They seemed surprised on the phone that I already knew about the brakes. This seems absurd to me, even if you mark up the OEM pads 300%. I recently did all 4 pads, rotors, calipers, e-brakes and flush on my F-150 for just slightly more than that, and that's using higher performance parts designed specifically for hard towing.

Also, they offer to do the front pad/rotor work plus a full brake fluid flush for $992 incl. tax and shop fees over the phone. Granted I haven't had service done by a mechanic for over 10 years on anything, but this seems mind boggling.

Well, this is my Uber daily driver, I just love the color of my car, very efficient on gas even that is a non hybrid version, the stereo sounds amazing and the autopilot is impressive, I just love my car.
