1992 Toyota Camry LE review from North America
"Great reliable car that will last forever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Self-retracting antenna failed at 120,000 miles.
Radiator blew at 128,000 miles.
Oil leak at 130,000.
The exterior paint has started to chip and wear.
Transmission has some hesitation at times.
General comments?
I'm seriously impressed with my little Camry. I got it at 115,000 miles, and it was my parents car prior to that, they purchased it with 70,000 miles. It just hit 135,000 miles, and I have no doubts that it will last to at least 200,000 miles.
While the 4-cylinder engine it has isn't going to win you any street races, its more than competent to get you where you need to go with, and with great gas mileage. My wife and I recently drove to Los Angeles and back, on one tank of gas --- 425 miles, and this car is 12 years old.
Don't let anyone ever try to talk you out of buying a Camry, its the best investment of an automobile you could ever make.
