2013 Toyota Corolla Sedan S 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl 4A)
An Truly Honest In Depth Review
 After driving this car in pretty much every situation possible, I must say I'm blown away. As far as driving goes: Of course it may not accelerate like the 2014-onward models and it can get frustrating especially if you like to go fast like me but this car will get you anywhere you need to be. I've driven everywhere from the mountains to the desert, and it's never left me stranded. The ride is superb, very quiet, smooth and comfortable, Driving at 120 feels more like 70. Not saying it has seats like a Rolls Royce but they are very comfortable on long trips. The shiftable automatic on the S trim is the most helpful feature. On mountain passes when going down on sharp curves, you can just keep it in 3rd and you won't have to touch your brakes. When going up, it also serves the same purpose and makes it a lot more safer. And when in bumper to bumper traffic or just wanting to feel like you have a sports car, the availablity of all 4 gears goes a long way. Car did great in the snow with cheap chains. As far as reliability : I've only done routine maintenance, and 2 sets of brakes in 3 years (but due only to the "fast and the furious" mentality I drive with) I've used it  primarily as a commuter car. My mom owned a 2014 and now a 2017 corolla and I must say I'm glad I made the choice to get the 2013. Although it has much more power and accelerates like a mustang it doesn't ride nearly as quiet and comfortably and has a CVT and a timing belt instead of a chain(I don't need to get into that conversation). Also feels a whole lot cheaper in overall craftsmanship and quality. The bottom line: The 2013 Corolla may not accelerate how you'd like it to or be the flyest car on the roa but it's is hands down the most trouble free and reliable car I've ever owned. I plan to keep this car forever. Get one if you get the chance
