This is the best car ever that I think Toyota put

Well I have I bought one in 1999 the first year that they come out with them really it was a 2000 model of four-door gray sedan it's got five right at 522,000 miles on it 527 I think to be exact and all I've ever done to it was put a alternator variable valve timing sensor and a battery in it and a regular maintenance and it's still running to this day I drive it everyday

I OWN 3 of them!!

I just love this little car! I own 3 of them, one for me, one for my daughter and one for my son! We have a 2000,2002,2005. The 2005 has 325,000 miles on it, same engine and transmission. I'm 6'2" and fit just fine. I'd take it anywhere! Great little car!

Great car!!!

This was an excellent car for me and I regret selling it! I sold it with approximately 186k miles and it was running great! The 5 speed manual was a blast to drive. I mainly drove around town and typically averaged 33-35mpg. I would recommend this car to anyone and would definitely purchase another!

Amazing Vehicle

I bought it new in 2000 for 13K and it now has nearly 150K miles and still going. I'm regularly getting 38-40 MPG and it runs like a top. It's a basic vehicle but it has always done the job at a minimal cost. This epitomizes what Toyota is all about...quality and reliability.

Super reliable, runs well and supreme gas mileage!

This car drives well, leg room for all, excellent gas mileage, and a great all-around car. My daughter's first car (she was an excellent driver) and we all will miss it.

most reliable car i've owned

Great vehicle for city driving. Easy to park and maneuverable. On highways prone to side winds. During my 20 years of ownership had to change a few things such as belts, tires and starter. But the last 10 years have virtually been trouble free with regular oil and filter change. I wish they had continued making it but it would have given the Corolla a run for its money.

love our little TEDDIE

have had little Teddie (named for my mother) for nearly a decade...average fifty miles per gallon...no highway driving ever and have over 300,000 miles...Teddie had 160,000 when I purchased her...have replaced the clutch when purchased and routine oil changes, brakes....we do not drive her in Maine in the winter...she is my comfortable 3 season limo...by far the cutest car I have seen...our family has had 4 at one time...the 5 speeds all got nearly 50 miles per gallon...the automatic was shipped to Texas when my daughter moved there and the car shipper folks laughed as no one had ever bothered to transport a car with such high mileage...it did fine and returned to Maine the next year...we love the Echo.

Another reliable Toyota

This car took a while to get used to. The first car I drove that had the speedometer in the middle. Looks on the outside were ok and inside was youre typical subcompact car but the ride was pretty good. Very reliable and had no issues. Very good for the money. Its too bad they dont make them anymore.
