@@janehyden1652 lies

20K Miles is just new for Camry

@@janehyden1652 not with 20k miles you didn't, not even with 100k Miles.

@@janehyden1652 I wouldn't let my '99 Camry with 336k miles on it go for less then 4k, runs and drives too good. I would have a hard time replacing it with something as good for under 8k lol... I have only owned it since 2000! So I know how it's been maintained ;-)

@Ms Elite I have been fortunate with a 2000 sienna I have. It hasn't had the paint problem. I have seen some camrys with paint peeling from this generation. I wonder if it is specific to the 02-06 models. The cars themselves have been trouble free from anyone with which I have talked.

@Ms Elite my niece bought an 04 Lexus ES 330 a few months ago and the roof is faded.

@after hours asmr I also have an ‘04 Camry LE and that car still almost looks brand new and still drives like a beast

03 v6 exl 335k no money pit most reliable drive train and car ever. it will run forever and because it does not break how is it money pit. 335k 1 radiator 1 alternator 1 knock sensor and of course wear items tires brakes belts etc. all 3 parts that needed replacing broke after 250k miles. HOW is this money pit spent less in last 5 yrs than my buddy spent on 3 car payments for new accord

Sorry misread missed the NOT before money pit DUH

Nice but you dont need Premium. Just run regular 87 and save you a couple bucks and buy yourself a meal!

@@jesusalfaro6185 You don't need it but this engine actually benefits from it. More power and mpg. The manual even says this for the V6

Factory manual transmission or manual swapped?

n64central lucky ass hell

20k miles not bad for a 15 year old car

I recently totaled my (parents') '95 Corolla. Luckily I had a decent bit of money already saved up and my dad has found an '04 Camry for $1.5k. I'm excited:)

I BOUGHT AN 04 FOR $500 ---ITS GOT 65,000 MILES ON IT! I KNOW A GOOD THING WHEN I SEE ONE LOL.

jane hyden from where you bought

Toyotas last and will get you all you need without all of techno problems that tend to occur in the electrical units.

Do maintenance and you will not spend much anytime soon 2003 330k three parts failed all after 250k knock sensor, pun hole in radiator, alternator. 330,000 miles less than 1000 in parts and labor. Now wear items tires belts hoses oil and filters brakes etc. Every thing works still all electrical switches motors sun roof all 100% great.

They can if they’re shorter than 5’10 and not overweight.

An easter egg with Avalon is that front split bench seating was an option up to 2004 and it could seat 6 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yhcPsCCNwhs.html

@@kordell729 howd you get it for so cheap?

@@ABoredTroll right, i find some for 3k with like 120k miles😂😂

Bought a mint condition 2004 camry last year for 4500. Has 180,000 and runs like new. But Damm 700 for a 2003. Your Hella lucky for that price.

I JUST BOUGHT ONE FOR $500!!!!!!

XLE is definitely the best in that generation.. it has a lot of options you can't get on the others.. XLE and XSE are the two top trim levels for Camry.. the new ones are great as well I have one of those.

@@randyjackson347 I’d argue the SE looks the nicest though

Yes check the brakes they go through them quick

@@jeffr3744 Thanks for the reply, Jeff. This car that I looked at actually had 176K miles as indicated by the Carfax. I passed up the Camry. I went for a Corolla with 108K miles for $4400 and I couldn't be happier. Thanks for the advice.

Its Camry here at Las Vegas Nevada United States 🇺🇸. But I got the 2.4 4 cylinder

@@alexcidjavillonar7973 They’re all Camrys, it’s just the trim level he’s talking about.

2.4 is crap engine - it drink oil like old alcoholic

@@mikkei3532 I should check my oil

mikkei I have an ‘02 2.4 and I’ve never had a problem with it. My grandfather had it for 16 years before he gave it to me and he never had a problem with it either, it’s been a very reliable car. I had a misfire about a month ago, but that was because the valve cover gasket had never been replaced and oil was covering the ignition coil. I replaced both the gasket and spark plugs in about an hour and a half and it’s been running like new ever since

The 2002-06 Camrys do not burn oil. The 07-11 ones had low tension piston rings, which caused excessive wear and burned oil. I have an over 18 year old 05 Camry with over 350,000 kms. Still running. Toronto Canada

Your Honda Accord has more horsepower than the four cylinder Camry did in that year. They are a lot peppier than the Camry. Both are the two best midsize cars you can buy .

no they dont

4 speed plus overdrive so kind of

What do you Mean? It’s an 04. I don’t think there was 6 speed autos around. Also, these tend to be more Robust than the current 8 speed Toyota went with, those have had lots of problems.

@@djkenny1202 Those Camry's in that generation had a five-speed automatic.. 4 cylinder and V6. The new 8-speed Toyota Camry is a great car I have a new 2020 XLE.. it it runs and shifts great the new 4-cylinder dynamic Force engine is great as well.. I can get 46.2 mi to the gallon on the road.. and it has a lot more get up and go than that V6 that he is reviewing now.. my Camry sticker for 37,800... It is wind chill white pearl in color and it even has the parking assist with all the sensors on the bumper /sonar and heads up display.. it has everything on it that A lexus ES- 350 has on it .. and I thought about getting one of those.. I could have got it for eight grand more . The same car as I have with a V6 is pushing 41 Grand.. I just did not want no V6.
