Read Reviews of Chevy Prizm at
www.kbb.com: "This is mechanically identical to a Corolla, except that it has a Chevy name, and so has a lower resale value. If you think highly of the Corolla, and want to spend less money, then this is a good option."
"This vehicle is basically a rebadged Toyota Corolla. It's a basic 4-door, 4-cyl. vehicle with Toyota quality. It gets you from point A to B. As long as you follow regular maintenance, it should last a long while."
