Very impressive dependable vehicle

This vehicle has a good amount of space, especially with me driving for Uber and Lyft" excellent AC and heater. It rides very well and gas mileage is good.

Nice Car

Toyota Camry SE does not need review. It’s a perfect car for my college going kids. Nicely kept and mostly garage kept car. Very liked by my kids.

Cheap now its made in the USA

Very cheaply made vehicles now. Mostly because it’s made in the USA now where everything is garbage. The transmission and engine sound like little toys when they start up and make very weird winding noises on a cold start. I hate this car honestly. Nice design and stuff but most certainly far below my standards of what I expected from Toyota. I also bought this car from a toyota dealership and they really did take good care of the car it’s nothing about the car itself that makes the brand of Camry awful, its just don’t expect Toyota's to be foreign quality anymore.

Great first car

Reliable, spacious (I was able to fit 2 bikes in it). We fell in love with that car at the first test drive. It's SE model, high-quality, very comfortable and cool to drive. We've 2017 with very few miles on it.

Most reliable car I ever own

This is the best deal you can find. The car looks like new. Extremely reliable I never had any issues with it. I love the car but with covid 19 I can’t keep it

Great car

Enough space for my family good on gas. The car has plenty of trunk space and legroom especially for my 6 foot son. Would highly recommend it

Very Good Car

You really cannot go wrong with a Camry. I bought the 2017 as it is the last year of manufacture for the 6 speed automatic. Stay away from the 8 speed auto as the bugs have not been worked out yet. Save money by buying a used car too! The only design issue is while using the sport mode shifter. The console is not designed for the driver to use the sport mode shifter efficiently as it totally gets in the way of shifting, Do not buy any cars with a CVT! The only brand of car with a CVT would be a Toyota as they have been making the Prius for a number of years now . . . I am not a fan of Turbo charged cars either. Too much risk with drive train failure. Get yourself a Camry, you will not go wrong. Be sure to compare used car prices on the various used car websites BEFORE buying from a dealer as they may be a bit higher in pricing.

Yep, we bought our 5th Toyota

We have had very long lasting Toyotas and have now bought our 5th. If you count my daughter’s this will be the 6th. Let me limit this to just the one minor issue I have with this particular Camry. I find the displays to be too bright when driving at night so I turn it off after selecting a radio station. Unfortunately this vehicle does not have a clock other than what is on the display. It’s a small matter.

Defective parts

This is my 3rd Camry, The last 2 were great and lasted. The 2017 XLE model has reoccurring issues. 1. in the door lock actuators, they all failed within 24 months and were replaced, I'm now on the second round, 2 have been replaced for the second time. 2. A wining noise coming from the fan on the entertainment system, only happens in temperatures below 30F, dealer say this is normal. Don't buy this answer, the noise is louder than the deluxe JBL sound system. Has not been resolved. 3. Climate control blower stops working and/or goes at much slower speed even when set to high. Dealer can't duplicate, not resolved. even though I've had it in 3 times over the last 10 months. Was a real pain not having a defroster working all the time this past winter. All I can say is I'm glad I purchased the extended warrantee.
