1998 Toyota Camry LE review from North America
"Fast, reliable. Toyota does it again!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front end makes a rattling noise when I hit bumps in the road.
Seats wear badly.
General comments?
This car is very nice.
It came equipped with a V6 and man is it nice. When you want to pass someone with this motor it's no problem.
My aunt has the same car with the 4 cylinder and lacks some pep. Not so with the V6.
The interior is leather and although nice, the drivers side is wearing fast.
The cabin is very roomy. The backseat can handle 3 people just fine.
I'm not going to tell you that it's Toyota's fault because the console broke. I know that's due to user error.
As far as I have seen this car has been a real joy.
