I am really happy to have purchased this car. I have owned it for over a decade, and aside from routine maintenance and wear and tear, have had to do minimal repairs to keep it operating well. The car gets solid gas mileage, steers well, brakes quickly, has an engine that runs smoothly and reliably, and will last a long time if taken care of. When repairs are needed, parts are easy to come by because Toyota Camrys are such a common car model, so it isn't difficult or expensive to fix it as needed. Aside from performing well, the car is sleek and pretty, which makes it live past the stigma of being a car that's only for older, more practically minded people. For the amount of money it costs, the Camry is probably the best value car on the market, both for immediate use, and long term performance.

The windshield has a 1,001 micro-pits in it, but then it has over 200k miles on it and is about 17 years old now. It comfortably seats 4, but the weight limit seems a bit low [about 900 LBS or so]. Some people I have in the car are very heavy and I'm concerned about the stress it puts on the vehicle. Its a bit too noisy, but at least its a lot better than the corolla I had immediately before it. It gets around 22mpg and has surprisingly good acceleration for a 4 cylinder job.
