Just curious what you guys n gals drove before you had your Corollas. I traded in a 2001 Jeep Wrangler in on an 07 Corolla LE and haven't looked back before that I had a 95 Dodge Spirit, a 89 Chrysler Lebaron an 87 Dodge Dakota a 85 Volkswagon GTI and an 81 Oldsmobile Delta 88

Until my Corolla arrives in about a week I'll be concluding my 2 and a half year use of a 2001 Hyundai Accent. Best decision I ever made!

My '09 Corolla replaced a 99 Camry, which replaced an 86 Corolla.

My lineage goes:

93 Corolla -> 94 Accord -> 97 Camry (still active) -> 99 Corolla auto -> 99 Corolla manual -> (soon) 99 Corolla with a 01 body.

Until Friday, I'll still be driving my 2003 Buick Centruy (silvery-tan). Before that it was a 97 Century (maroon), a 93 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera (light blue), and my first car ever was a 1986 Pontiac 6000 STE (black).

Still have very fond memories of that first one, and I still like my current Century. However, the Corolla will be the first car I've actually bought myself (the others were all given by my parents, the 97 and 03 Centuries initally belonging to my mom), and as such I'm sure I'll feel even more attached to it. I'll even still have the Century in spirit; it'll be going to my g/f so she doesn't have to rely on her parents to take her to work and such anymore.

Before my current 2002 Corolla, I had a 1997 Corolla. Before that I had a 1999 Ford Escort.

Since my corolla (bought Aug 17th, 2007) is the weekend car. My daily driver is a 2001 Chevrolet Impala LS. Before that a 2003 Mitz Galant (only lasted three days. i hate ignorant tow truck drivers), before that a 1995 Ford Escort Wagon, before that my kick ass Saturn.

2000 Chrysler T&C. It was cheap. Don't laugh. ;-)

before my 92 corolla was my 89 civic 4 door, before that a 93 beretta gt, before that a 2006 kia spectra sx, before that a 94 F-150, before that a 94 cavalier, before that the same f-150, before that an 86 subaru xt which i never got to drive. so i guess that last one doesnt count.

95 plymouth voyager. It was great for the sound system space and lots of groceries. Tranny finally went in December.

Chevrolet Corsica LT 89 (3.1) (great first car when your 18. exhaust was nice)

Dodge Neon SOHC 1998 coupe(this car was my best one, never went true the engine or tranny and never cost me too much to run and handling was outstanding)

Mazda 626 1998 V6 MTX - A real piece of crap In five year I put like 7000$ in repair. Never buy this.

Ford Focus ZX3 2001 - Very good car, handling great and confort A1 for a little car. I would have buy a focus instead of the Corolla but I am waiting for the next Gen coming to north america coming soon.

Mazda 6 2.3 MTX 2005 - Never buy this. Nice car to drive but weak clutch assmbly on those year. I sold the car after 3 moth of ownership.

And finally a 2009 Toyota Corolla.
