1997 Toyota Camry LE 2.2 from North America
Summary:
This car is a workhorse, very reliable under coarse conditions.
Faults:
Transmission had to be replaced in February 2004. No gear's at all.
Currently engine needs replacement. A piece of the engine block broke off. I think, due to piston bearing wear, causing the piston arm to shift and internally hitting engine block. It exploded hitting the hood.
General Comments:
This car is a serious transporter.
Very reliable. Performance unsurpassed.
However, brakes needing replacement more often than not. Steering column wobbles on downhill breaking.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I agree with your comment. I own the same vehicle and it has been a very pleasurable car. It has 190hp and it uses it well. The brakes have always made noise and a 1,200 dollar fuel line work have been the only expences.
