1990 Toyota Camry LE review from North America
"Fabulous in every way"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Antenna bent by garage door.
Throttle plate periodically gets dirty, resulting in sticky accelerator pedal.
One CV boot broken.
General comments?
I have not had any serious repair needed for this car. Only maintenance items, i.e., oil changes, replacement of batteries and brakes, flush and refills of transmission and radiator, replacement of hoses and belts.
My gas mileage has been extremely good; in one trip in November 2001 from Los Angeles to Tucson at about 63 mph I got 44.1 mpg.
