#3: 2009 Toyota Corolla
MSRP: $15,350 - $20,050
Best EPA Fuel Economy (City/Highway): 26/35 mpg
Star Rating:

If high reliability, high build quality and high fuel economy are high priorities for you, the Toyota Corolla is a slam dunk. Granted, it's no safety leader (antilock brakes and head-protection curtains are not standard) or a style pusher, but the 2009 Toyota Corolla is simple star -- no flash, just fuel smarts.
