I don't care if it's auto. It has under 200k and not a bad price with apparent full service history. I'd buy it if I had space (or passion for cars anymore)...

Unless it's fake, then I give up
^ I'm going to look at it tomorrow, if I pass on it I'll let you guys know what I see when I'm there. I spoke to him for a long time on the phone... I used to have a 94 manual in red so I know these cars fairly well.

One bad thing about it (just my own personal thing) is the interior is the godawful mocha chocolate brown... full leather, not half cloth like many of the late year ones were... but ugh... why couldn't it be grey or black.

That Corolla seems to be in very good shape, compared to the EG and EK sedans

Back in the late 90’s I swear every single time I was stuck behind some turd driving 10kms slower than the limit while driving in the fast lane on the east-west connector, it was that exact corolla right there

Just saw this pop on for 3k
Not sure if it’s the 330ci or 325ci but I believe this may be the 330ci with the zhp package based on the smg transmission. Only 140k km so not too bad. Minor dent on the hood which should be easily resolved

im pretty sure most of us born in 80s to early 90s all drove a corolla at one point.

I remember my driving school car having crank windows and the ac barely worked.

These cars still exist and that still happens there.

Then you make it to surrey and some uncle driving 20kms/hr in the fast lane on 88th. It's because his windows are completely fogged up and he can't see.

Anybody remember this white guy with a white 92ish camry sedan? I always saw on the east west connector. It had tinted windows with some white decals(white knight??) on them. Was always weaving in and out of traffic or trying to race you.

I'm not sure if he's still around, but there would be a guy who commuted from Richmond to Surrey on the 91 and up 88th every day in a Prius with reflective tape all over it... he was seriously road police... if he felt that anyone was driving even a bit faster than him or trying to pass, he would turn on his emergency flashers or box you in or even just change lanes in front of you with his brake lights on... go same speed as cars next to him if he saw you coming up fast from behind him... he absolutely could not stand anyone trying to get in front of him. He'd even go in the curb lane on the light at 88th and 120th and try to run you and cut back in front of you if you got in front of him. Loved to flash his highbeams like crazy too if you actually did go by him and he was behind you.

I had so many battles with that motherfucker. Then he got an even newer Prius, covered it in reflective tape all over the bumper and shit too.

I don't often wish ill of people, and I haven't been doing that commute for 4 years and he looked pretty damn old... but I kinda hope he's.... gone elsewhere

Brings back memories, first car was a 96 Corolla DX, sold it with 350k KM and not a single issue. Those cars were bullet proof.

Nowadays, I haven't owned a car that has made it over 100k KMs without major issues.

resetting the CEL every few minutes doesnt cure the problem..............


its like stacking band aids on an open wound.


but man, ae92 market is nuts. I remember looking at them with recently passed air care, next to no rust, good driving condition for like $800 back then..... $1200 if GTS too!
