The selling of Corolla isn't as good as many salespersons claim to be. This is evidenced by more and more Corollas in the dealers parking lot every day. I pass by a couple of Toyota dealers when I go to work every day. I just don't see the inventory is moving. There is a massive advertising campaign by Toyota right now. On the other hand, the Honda salespeople appear to be able to inflate Civic's selling price at MSRP.
 
It is interesting to note ConsumerReports.org rating on the two cars:
 
Civic 82 Recommended
Corolla 71 Not Recommended
 
I have test drove both and I don't think the difference is that huge (11%).

Yes that is true but you failed to mention the reason was that Corolla was a NEW model and they wont (ConsumerReports) recommend until there is history. They have been burned in the past on doing so. IT wont not matter if its a Toyota or Honda on first year no more free pass on new models. I test drove both and you cant go wrong on either its about what you are looking for.

I see the opposite - my dealer currently has one Corolla on the lot (stripper). The most I have seen since the new '09 came out is 3. Honda dealer, on the other hand, always has lots of Civics (5-10). But does my observations of these two dealers mean much? Nope.
 
Also, check the real sales numbers - you'll see the Corolla in the top 3. Someone can post a link.
 
The real reason the '09 is not recommended is because it is an all-new model.

We bought a 09 LE Corolla 6-23-08 from the Winter Park, FL Toyota dealer
Internet Sales team. They were quick on the floor but a bit slow on the internet. We were treated very respectfully. The numbers are as below:
Out the Door: $17050 for a LE with carpets and cruise control. No other options.
Price Quoted: $17,624--with a full tank of gas--got to be worth at least $50.
Dealer Documentation fee: $599.95
Discount: $1607.24
Rebate: $750.00
Net Cost: $15866.71 with a lifetime warranty of the powertrain (comes with all Courtesy Toyotas) Based on my repair experiences this is worth about $3-500)
 
Tire disposal and other misc. fees: $48.50
License Tag fees $110.00. May get some of this back.
Sales tax: $1024.79
Out the Door: $17050. with carpets, cruise control and NO TOYOGUARD, NO OTHER OPTIONS WHICH RAISE THE PRICE AND GIVE LITTLE VALUE SUCH AS RADIO UPGRADE, KEYLESS ETC. I WANTED VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL BUT COULDN'T FIND A LE IN THE SOUTHEAST WITH VSC. THEY WERE UNWILLING TO TAKE BACK THE $245 CARPETS.

Hi, i am looking at my owner warranty info booklet, and it says the powertrain is only 60 months, or 60,000 miles.

This 6/60 is the Toyota normal powertrain warranty - lifetimes are purchased separate.

Hi:
Toyota Co. offers a "60,000 miles/60 months" power train warranty. Courtesy Toyota extends that warranty to "lifetime" for the original owner. If we keep the car beyond 60,000/60 months the warranty has value (for me). It does have a $100 deductable per event.

Hi Mizzrivera,
 
I live in Birmingham, too. Did you get the Toyota LE for $15,550 out the door? Are all taxes and fees included in the amount you quoted? If so, I'll head on over to Serra Toyota!
