This Year's Model Updates:

For the 2004 Toyota Camry, a new 3.3-liter V6 is standard on SE V6 models. Relative to last year's 3.0-liter V6, this engine offers 33 more horsepower and an additional 31 pound-feet of torque, boosting ratings to 225 and 240, respectively. Fortunately, Toyota has also boosted the 3.0-liter engine's output -- it now makes 210 hp and 220 lb-ft of torque in V6-equipped LE and XLE models. Both V6 engines come standard with a five-speed automatic transmission this year. In other news, a new trim has been introduced; the Limited Edition Camry comes in an exclusive crystal-white color, and offers a unique front grille, standard foglamps and champagne-color exterior badging.

Pros:
  • Roomy, comfortable, plenty of safety and luxury features, high resale value, strong reputation for reliability.

  • Uncomfortable driver seat - 2004 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I find the driver seat to be very uncomfortable. To the point that I do not like to drive the car. Lumbar support is like two fists in my kidneys and the seat bottom is very hard. Did not notice this in the short test drive at the dealers. Be sure to sit in this car for 15 + minutes before buying.

  • 2004 Camry Trunk Rust - 2004 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I have owned a Camry for 10 yrs and am very pleased wth the performance and style. The 2004 was bought in Aug 2004. It has developed a rust problem in the trunk. The trunk gutter has visible rust at all the spot weld points all around the trunck. Also would have preferred 16 wheels. Have experienced excessive tire noise on the highway - noticeable by the radio volume increasing when on the highway. Dont think I have bad ears yet.

  • First-hand experience on safety - 2004 Toyota Camry
    By -

    My review is on the 2003 Camry LE that we owned that was involved in an accident on Thanksgiving Day. The accident occurred when an SUV lost control and came across 3 lanes of traffic, causing us to slam into the front-driver side at about 45 mph. Our Camry was a total loss as a result of this accident, but no one was seriously hurt. The passenger compartment was untouched except for the airbags deploying. The engine compartment took the brunt of the collision and performed beautifully. Prior to the accident, we loved the car. After the accident, we now know just how safe this vehicle is. Once we settle with insurance, we are buying a 2004 Camry LE.

  • 100k+ and aiming for a million - 2004 Toyota Camry
    By -

    bought it new for Xmas back in 03, couldnt resist the 0% APR offered by Toyota Financing. Anyway itll be close to 10 years since then and Ive driven it almost all over the PST/MST zones. City economy is never higher than 24, freeway cruising between 75-80 nets 29 and back-road cruising between 45-55 nets a high of 36. Yep 36 but I rarely drive that slow for that long so that almost never happens. I keep up with all the scheduled maintenance as a rule, change the oil every 3-4k miles and it just keeps on trucking. 200 lbs/ft tq is enough to carry a family of 5 from the coast to the peaks with a trunk full of luggage. And food. And a cooler too. I almost bought another 04 once, haha

    I love my Camry, it is the best for your dollars. Fit and finish is unmatched! As you may have read by now, European autos are NO match for Toyotas! I am getting another Camry in the XLE model, EXcept Im getting leather this time around. 4 cylinder is all you need. Smooth, quiet, and powerful. Resale is superb! I sold it for as much as I paid for it. I put in 20K miles in 1.5 years time. Dont just think about getting it, JUST DO IT! Buy a Camry today, youll love it!

    All Toyota Camrys are very dependable cars. Great looks and handles like a dream. Last 2 Camrys had 200000 + miles when I gave them to my son because they both still were in great running condition. I think Toyota Camry is the Best Value for your money on the market today.

  • 2004 Toyota Camry XLE - 2004 Toyota Camry

    We purchased a 2004 Toyota Camry XLE in May of 2004. We have owned the Toyota brand before and were pleased with it reliability. To date, this vehicle has not disappointed us--it drives like a dream--no road noise, superior sound quality in the upgraded stereo system, very comfortable and room, power seats very easy to adjust in many different positions. Gas mileage has been as rated and interior design is very easy to get used to--the radio/cd/cassette controls are within easy reach. Auto temperature control feature is an excellent way to remain comfortable while driving. The direction indicator in the rear view mirror is also very helpful.
