1987 Toyota Camry LE review from North America
"Car has lots of power when needed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car was in great shape (and still is) when I bought it. Changed the front rotors (pulsing brakes),changed the timing belt at same time (to be safe). No repairs since this time. I do change the oil approx. 3x per year (cheap insurance)
General comments?
This is the best car I've ever owned and I've owned a few! The car drives and looks like new. The metallic blue paint is like new and gleams on sunny days. The interior has all options and is very comfortable (I'm 6 foot 3).I particularly like the velour seats and all the electronic gadgets in the car.
The car currently has 210,000 kms and judging by other reviews I look forward to driving her for years to come.
Sometimes I sit in this car and grin sheepishly when I think that I only paid $5000 for her and don't have a car payment.
If you can find one in good condition-buy it!
