1993 Toyota Corolla DX

[TheNemesis]

I was looking in the paper for a car, as I have been for a while and I saw this, it says $300 but it's obviously a misprint for $3000, but it's still good for that price IMO. The caption says "1993 Corolla DX, 102k, 5sdp, ac, exc cond in/out $300 firm 667-2685 dlr" and I looked on carpoint for the specs, and it said it had a turbo, WTF? Does anyone know if it really does have a turbo?

if it does, that's one weak ass turbo to only get 10hp over the smaller engine.

That's why i doubted it, and I hope it doesn't :disgust:

I think they made a mistake. It's a 1.8L 4cylinder EFI naturally aspirating gasoline engine producing maximum power of 115hp.

here's some specs, I think you'll find it useful

I'd say it's a pretty good car. Hey it's a Toyota. They make damn reliable cars along with Honda's. Be prepared to shell out about $300-500 for new CV joints though. At 100K+ miles, many FWD loses it's CV especially ones driven in town constantly.

well its a dealer so hopefully he would see that and fix it. or there might be a limited warranty with it.

I've never heard of one having a turbo from the factory...

Thank god it's not a turbo, my dad is a mechanic(Not by profession, but he's damn good at it) but he's kind of, I don't know the word...biased I guess. He loves Toyotas, hates hondas...I think he's had 1 or 2 bad experiences with hondas and hates working on them now, oh well. He doesn't like turbos, or 6 cylinders(No maxima for me 🙁 ) Oh well, I think we'll go and check this one out.
