1998 Toyota Camry LE review from North America
"Great for a family, or for a college student"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not one thing wrong with the car.
General comments?
I had gotten this car off of my grandmom who recently went into a nursing home, and could no longer drive it. I am currently attending Temple University's Law School. When the motor caught fire on my 1993 Tercel, I was very upset, so I called my grandmom at the time, and she was about to sell the Camry. However, when she heard that the motor on y Tercel caught fire, she decided to give the car to me for free because I needed a car to go to college in. When I found out that she was about to into the nursing home, that's when I knew that I hit a home run by getting the car at the right time.
My parents drive much nicer cars than the Camry, but I needed a car really quickly. This Camry is white with a grey interior. It has the 4 cylinder motor in it for great gas mileage. I love the car cause it is very roomy inside so that I can take my friends out to wherever they want to go. The trunk is nice and roomy. Most importantly, it runs like it did when my grandmom bought it new at Champion Toyota in Philadelphia Pennsylvania back in January of 1998.
When you think of a Toyota Camry, you think of quality, durability, safety, roominess, and long lasting. That is why I will never, ever get rid of this one. In fact, my boyfriend owns a 2002 Camry with 51000 miles on it, and he got his new.
So you know that we are loyal fans of the Toyota Camry. If you are in the market for a Camry, there are tons of them out there. This one has very low miles on it, but I will keep it forever.
Look for a Camry that was very well taken care of and garage kept like this one was, and you never, ever want to get rid of it. I love it, and so does my boyfriend.
