Faults:

I've had no mechanical problems, as this car had been serviced well by the previous owner, and by myself.

Inside there are a few rattles, especially in the dash.

The carpet and seats are wearing on the driver side, but this is to be expected with a car this old.

The car still is in one piece (with some slight boot/trunk rust) even after a major rear-ender accident. This cost the insurance company $5500, and an Ex-Cop his license (driving whilst under the influence).

General Comments:

The Camry is a car suited to someone who is happy not to stand out from the crowd.

This vehicle merely performs it duty of transporting driver (& passenger) where they want to go.

No frills travel, but most importantly, no hassles travel.

Mechanically top notch.

Experiences some slightly unsettling body-roll when cornering hard.

Faults:

Windows steam up if its raining.

Brake work several times.

Power antenna replaced.

Body rust around wheels.

General Comments:

It is like a little tank in snow.

It is very comfortable.

Great gas usage.

The rear seat folds down and the car is great for hauling large items, skis etc.

Very dependable.

Faults:

I have replaced the water pump, resistors on fan and a wheel hub. But everything else is in perfect condition.

General Comments:

The car is Australian assembled.

The car has a beautiful ride and performs well for a 2000 cubic inch engine.I'm very happy with the car.

Faults:

The only thing that has had to be replaced on this car was the distributor cap and the spark plug wires. The alternator went out once, but for 5 bucks I replaced the carbon brushes inside and it fixed the problem. Other than these two regular maintenence problems the car has been amazing.

General Comments:

The car isn't really that powerful with the 4 cyl. but it has pretty good gas mileage. It has a really smooth suspension due to a hefty frame and lots of steel on the body panels. It is quiet on the inside at high speeds and it is pretty roomy. I've got to hand it to the Japs, they know how to build cars! 240,000 miles and still going is absolutely amazing. Everybody says buy American, well when we can make a reliable car or truck I'll buy American. Until then I'll buy whatever is rated the best by consumer reports.

Faults:

The only problems are the result of a collision (van went through a light and hit the passenger rear quarter two years ago) that almost totaled the car. (Rear clip replacement, over four grand.)

The trunk now leaks in heavy rain - or the car wash.

The engine was slow to begin with (if it weren't, I wouldn't have been hit!) but is now lethargic.

A/C fills the car with a musty odor, and barely cools the interior.

General Comments:

Three problems:

1: Interior lighting isn't good -- one dome light that isn't aimed toward the front seats.

2: Car fogs up despite defroster being on highest setting.

3: The four-cylinder is a slug.

Otherwise, the car is solidly built and more reliable than any other vehicle I've ever seen. I have never been stranded from mechanical problems in this car (even after the accident, it ran just fine.) I really think I'll be driving this car in five years. (Unless some other idiot hits me. My insurance really wanted to total the car out for some strange reason.)
