Best Car I've Owned

I bought my 5-speed manual 1995 Camry Coupe in 1997 off lease and it has been a great car for the past 14 years. It's fun to drive, comfortable, roomy, sporty-looking, and reliable. The only major repairs (all when the car was over 15 years old) have been to replace the radiator (had a hole in it), exhaust system from catalytic converter back, and some brake and fuel lines due to rust. Never even needed a brake job and I still have the original clutch at 118,000 miles. Even the battery lasted 12-13 years. Drove my good old Camry on a 240 mile trip last week and it still runs and drives great. My only minor complaint is that the leather seat upholstery was not especially durable. I wish that Toyota still made this car. They have even discontinued the Camry Solara, which was its successor, and they don't make many Camrys with stick shifts any more. The new Camrys aren't bad but I prefer the coupe and the stick shift.

excellent first car!!

I was given this car by my dad for my first vehicle. It had about 150,000 miles on it, still it ran extremely smooth. I have now had it for 4 years and have maintained it every 5,000 miles just like my dad did. It now has 206,000 miles and no major problems. EXCELLENT car... i predict new brakes soon but i have never had to change them so i suspect that's to be expected. Great car and extremely reliable

First & Only Car...

My 95 Camry is at 201,000 (!!) miles now & I'm STILL driving it 1 hour commute to work one-way, so that's 2 hours a day total. That alone proves the quality and durability of this make and model. MPG is a little low (I have to refill 2x a week) plus this is probably because the engine is much less efficient than it was in its prime years. However, engine is still smooth, has never sputtered or rattled in its life. People who ride in my car say they can't even tell the engine is running. A little weak going uphill and accelerating now, but this is expected from a 16 yr old car. There have also been some electrical issues (i.e. some of the lights on the heat/air dial have flickered and turned off temporarily as well as the parking brake light staying on). As long as the owner maintains the car by changing oil, making sure fluids are checked, brakes, timing belt, etc... this car should have no problems at all. As with any car, if these issues are not addressed in a timely manner, the problems will compound and cause other chain-reaction problems. If Toyotas are taken good care of, they will never fail you.

A Great Car!

I bought my '95 Camry V6 new and it just turned 225k miles. This car has never left me stranded and all the major components work like the day I drove off the dealership's lot. The gas mileage is still 22/town, 30/highway. Other than replacing the brakes at 180k miles it has never let me down. Toyota quality and reliability speak for itself. I'll drive it till it drops, rebuild the engine and drive it some more! I have to admit the Camry Hybrid has caught my attention.

The Best Vehicle Ever!

I am so happy to talk about my special car, 1995 Camry XLE. I bought this car in 1996 ,it had 9600 miles on it. It now has 145,000.I have had very regular maintenance performed and careful about who works on it. Whatever it wants, it gets. Although for a 15 year old car it needs have been few, just the normal work. I plan to keep it forever! A few years ago, my daughter-in-law who drives a Lexus said:"This car drives so easily, it is like a hot knife cutting butter."

Worst car I've ever experienced.

This car got me from point A to point B. That's about as exciting as it gets with the 1995 Camry. I had a 1995 Toyota CAMRY XLE V6. I thought that Toyota Camrys were reliable and dependable. I couldn't have been any more wrong. I always did regular matienence and tune ups, oil changes, breaks, etc. I was driving it the other week and my steering went out completly. The car couldn't drive. I took it to the mechanic, whom I trust and is a family friend. He told me that I have an oil leak, power steering leek, transmission problems, engine problems, i'll need a CV joint boot, power steering fluid, several pumps, a new exhaust...I was dumbfounded. I wouldn't suggest buying a Toyota Camry between the 1992-1996 model year. There have been several reports, most notably through Harvard University that outlines the problems in Georgetown, Kentucky where most of the Camrys were made. Some were also made in Japan but I'm not sure about their reliability, I can also speak for the American made Camrys made in Kentucky. The vehicle is also idling high, it never gave me too many problems but all of the problems listed above are common in 92-96 Camrys. Also those problems are found in 1990-1996 Lexus ES cars.

Most reliable car I've owned

I still drive my 1995 Camry and love it!! Has 115,000 miles on it and only thing that was needed was a reconditioned starter a few years ago. Other than that, regular oil changes, new tires, new brakes. Very reliable vehicle and hate to give it up. Looking at possibly leasing a new car but having trouble giving up my Camry.
