Explore the 1998 Toyota Camry

Most reliable car I've owned.

Comfortable, reliable, low maintenance, with proper upkeep this car could go 1 million miles, honestly seems like a better car than the newer model Camrys

Amazing reliability

This car is very reliable for all kind of trips except rocks and sans ways. The engine stays cold and the seats are pretty good. A lot of space you can sleep easily inside.

567,000 miles and running great.

Bought this car off the lot new in 1998. Its's a 5 speed stick shift. Still looks great. I change the oil out at least once a month whether it needs it or not and most parts that I have replaced(i.e. starter, altenator, struts, rack and pinion etc)are under lifetime warranties. I do not intend to sell it(had offers)and will probably pass it down to my grandson. Great car, no frills(CE edition), but dependable.

Best Car I've Ever Owned

Great car. Lasted me 21 years and she's still going strong. 300000+km and everything still works like the day my grandfather bought it. She's been to hell and back with me. Numerous break ups, plenty of parties. This car has seen some things...

Most reliable car I've owned

This car drives on and on. Had a few issues but with over 345,000 miles, not too surprising. Wish I could own it forever! :)

Always been most trusted car througout my day!

I would compare it to a mustang, that good performance and pickup speed. Good on gas /mileage. All new parts on the car, still have records of it.

It's 20 years old and still fine

This was my sister's car and she didn't need it any more so I bought it off of her. My wife drove it back and forth from work, 40 miles a day for 10 years trouble free and now my daughter is driving it. What can I say?
