 My Corolla had the 4 speed automatic transmission. I personally had a bad experience with my Corolla. I had the power steering leak and I had to get a new gas tank all within weeks of buying the car. My gas gauge was floaty, and mpg was lower than what websites listed. It never left me stranded, but having to put all that money into it really made me have a negative outlook on the car. The car was totaled in May of 2015, and I now have an Avalon. My advice is that if you do find one of these for sale, make sure it has been well maintained.
