1998 Toyota Camry LE 4 cylinder from North America

Summary:

Made with quality and value

Faults:

The car doesn't start up on the first try on cold days or early mornings. It eventually starts with no consequence.

My transmission grinds slightly when I haven't driven the car for hours and when I put it in reverse.

Seats are a bit uncomfortable after long drives.

Steering wheel wears badly.

General Comments:

I respect my car much more as the years and miles pass by.

The Camry is a quality, but boring, car.

So I added a new sound system, pin striping, glow gauges and 2004 Toyota 16" rims to enhance an average everyday car.

I would buy a Toyota again if I find a luxury sport style sedan that I would feel comfortable with in the long run.

I just bought a 1998 Toyota Camry. I love it. It runs great and I know that I made the right choice when I decided to buy a Camry. I also feel that it looks better than the newer models. I understand that no car is perfect, but my Camry comes pretty darn close.

Thank You.

1998 Toyota Camry 3.0L from Turkey

Summary:

A very reliable and comfortable car which I believe it pays for the cost of high fuel consumption

Faults:

I am the third owner of the car, and although the odometer was showing 160,000 km when I bought, it was in a very good looking condition. I had shown the car to an authorized service before buying: it was found perfect in the Toyota's so called A160 test (for used cars), except front seat heaters and headlamp motors (which were not functioning). Everything was fine, and almost to the factory standards from cylinder compression ratios to motor sound, and vibrations.

The both problems I have faced during last 20,000 kilometers is with the odometer: it has initialized two times while running with speeds over 100 km per hour. Now I know the mileage by adding on the previous figures.

There is a second issue, but I am not sure if it is a failure or should be accepted as normal: the cruise control is quite stable over 120 km/h, but under 100 km/h the deviation is something around plus 10 km and minus 5 km.

General Comments:

I recommend this car to those who want to feel reliability and comfort on the road.

This is not a car designed to race, or make very quick attacks as expected from sport cars. Easy control, stable on the road, quiet.

In this car there is nothing more than enough, and there is nothing missing than expected from a comfortable car.

I only would share the opinion of those users who comment as the seats are not holding the person from slightly slipping during sharp turns.

Since I have had this car, nothing has gone wrong with it.

The only things you have to do to keep this car with it's excellent performance is to get an oil change on time, keep the tires from wear, battery up to date, and let the Camry do the rest as it takes you on an unforgettable drive.
