For Sale: 1987 Toyota Corolla in Canby, Oregon

Vehicle Description


This two-owner 1987 Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S compact hatchback is powered by a 4A-GE 1.6-liter I4 mated to a four-speed automatic transaxle. It was purchased from the original owner by the seller and has been Oregon-owned for the last 25 years. Equipment includes color-keyed body trim pop-out rear windows, a spoiler, Michelin tires, and a Pioneer sound system. Finished in red over a charcoal cloth patterned interior, this Corolla is now offered with service records, a clean CARFAX report, and a clear title in the seller's name. 

The red exterior is accented in neutral graphics and features color-keyed beltline and rocker moldings, pop-out rear windows, and a roof-mounted spoiler. The seller has provided up-close images of some areas with blemishes including the front bumper, the left front fender, the passenger window trim, the right rear quarter, the hatch decals, and other areas around the body. The base for a rear wiper arm is present, but no wiper is installed.

Aluminum 14-inch split-spoke wheels are wrapped in Michelin Agilis CrossClimate 185/60 tires.

The interior is fitted with two-tone charcoal cloth bucket seats with patterned inserts up front, a split-folding bench in the rear, and matching trim for the door panels, dash, center console, and carpeting. Features include manual-crank windows, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power rack and pinion steering, and a Pioneer AM/FM/CD radio. The seller notes that the cruise control is non-operational.

Instrumentation includes a 150-mph speedometer, a 9,000-rpm tachometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The six-digit mechanical odometer reads 207,484 miles, a figure which lines up with the most recent mileage of 207,034 recorded on the CARFAX report in 2023.

The 4A-GE 1.6-liter DOHC I4 was rated at 108 horsepower and 96 lb-ft of torque. Under the seller’s ownership, the car received a new head gasket, a new radiator, and fresh fluids. Additional maintenance history per the CARFAX report has included an oil change and transmission fluid change in 2022, and replacement of the camshaft seals, fuel injection rail seals, serpentine belt, and valve cover gaskets in 2021. Power is transferred to the front wheels via a console-shifted four-speed automatic transaxle.

Handling is assisted via front and rear stabilizer bars.

The CARFAX report begins at manufacture in 1986 but has a gap in ownership history until 1999. It shows accident-free ownership in Oregon since that time. Service records will come with the car, as well as the removed original center dash panel that was removed for installation of the aftermarket stereo.
