Toyota Corolla Gti-16

This Toyota is my first car and my first love, a great intro to fast cars, high revving 16 valve engine gave plenty performance and ultra reliable, reasonable running costs, and standard suspension the car would not go round bends very well at all, had a quite a few scary moments due to body roll which in turned to fishtailing. A decent setup would cure this though. A future classic and will always hold a place in my heart, if you come across a good one, snap it up.

The Toyota Corolla still looks well cool, considering its age. Never dissapoints and always puts a smile on your face. Come on 8000 rpm fun for under a grand, and the interiors are just top notch and easy to work on yourself, even someone with the most bassic knowlege.

Overall its not a bad car but i would rather have golf gti mk2 or mk1 over the corolla gti as they are much more solid and engines are bullet proof unlike the corolla gti. Were the best back in the days but not now - too many rust boxes around.

The Toyota Corolla GTi-16 is my fav car out of 4 different Gti's i have had like the 306 gti-6 the 106 gti the mk1 golf and m2 golf both being gti's my corolla just beats them in every way.

Very fast (wheel spins in third), surprisingly practical, legendary engine and also high revving and is solid and reliable, surprisingly comfortable, packed full of gadgets for its age (electric mirrors, windows, sunroof etc) and I just love the sharp clutch and fast shifting gearbox. I recommend one now to anyone except for a first time driver as they would be flying through hedges and fields and also boy racers ruin them with Lexus lights and rubbish like that.

I recommend this car to enthusiasts or people who look after them. wax oil the chassis as soon as you get one or even better galvanise it. then it should last you for life.

Excellent car to drive, if you can get a tidy one. Very under estimated. will always love the Toyota Corolla.

Engine is indestructable! Excellent road holding, long gear ratio's, all the gadgets considering the year!

White Toyota Corolla Gti-16's for some reason look better as the spoiler and shape of the car looks sharper.

hullo there

I have only had my corolla gti for 3 months now but wot a car, I luv it. It's been lowered 50 mm on 15 inch team dynamics, handles like a go-cart, had rub strips on doors smoothed front an back bumper smoothed next is the tailgate, oh yes an a guy fitted a one off splitter for me, guarenteed nae body else has it, any way quality motor, nuff said

Wot a fast car. The Toyota Corolla Gti is still the best selling Hot hatch after Golf Gti but it will kill the Golf in every way. The Gti-16V is a hot hatch to be remembered and they hold their value, unlike NOVA's they NASTY. My Corolla is black has got 19" RSS Kahns on it, a full subaru impreza front (bonnet, bumber vents etc), flush tailgate, chipped, then superchipped, induction kit, full twin DTM exhaust, rear Escort cosworth bumper, cream leather interior,....etc

Overall 0-100 = 14.2 seconds (approx)

with a top speed of 135MPH (approx)

what a car the Toyota Corolla Gti-16 is! I had one of these after a peugeot 205 gti and it killed it in every way. Comfortable, smooth drive, fast as you could wish from a hot hatch (would ease past golfs, 205's, astra gte's etc). handling was great once it had been lowered 40mm and 15's fitted. Inside the seats are superb and the dash layout puts other cars to shame. Outside the car is not the prettiest, but by removing all stickers and lowering it, plus tinting the windows, the car looks the part. I would recommend a full s/s system and JR induction kit, coupled with a fensport chip - then you've got a car with a 16 sec quarter time - not bad for a 1600cc N/A!
