1995 Toyota Camry LE Sport review from North America
"Legendary Toyota Reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Over the 9 years I had the car...
I replaced a CV Joint around 150000kms.
Brake Rotors once.
The power antenna a couple times because of ice burning out the motor.
I replaced the starter around 300000kms as the solenoid was sticking.
General comments?
This was probably one of the most reliable cars ever built. It was the first car I'd ever owned from new, and the maintenance for it was probably the cheapest I'll ever have.
I was 16 when I got the car, and I abused it like most teenage boys would. Did you know a Camry can reach 130mph on the right stretch of highway? But the Camry took the abuse in stride and never let me down.
The last year I drove the car down muddy logging roads, spending most of its time sliding on it's undercarriage, other than a new bracket for the muffler, the car held up.
I feel bad for what I did to this car that looked after me so well, but it's a testament to Toyota quality after all that, and with the high mileage, I was still able to sell the car for $5000. (The down payment for a sorely needed truck)
