  Ignorant Navigation! - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By Vicki Nails - August 26 - 10:16 am

  I purchased an XLE 4 door Toyota with a navigation system which only came in a package consisting of heated seats and side air bags. The heated seats stay on for 5 minutes at a time and then shut off and come on again. The navigation system isnt programmed for many local streets and often suggests turning left when you need to turn right on interstate highways. I regret spending the additional money on this option. The heated seats should stay on at the drivers discretion. There is unacceptable road noise level. Long trips are not pleasant. I regret buying this car, and I cant wait to sell it and purchase another car. It wont be a Toyota!

  05 Camry SE V6 a sweet Cruiser ... :-)~ - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By Al C - August 25 - 6:36 pm

  Bang for the buck, the 05 Camry SE V6 is a real sweet deal of a cruiser! Considered and was open to all sorts of makes and models, but for the money this model Camry is really a no brainer. It is a great looking vehicle with good interior room, a nice smooth ride, and with the 3.3 V6 decent acceleration. At approx. 22K, it is both a reasonable/rational purchase that is an absolute pleasure to drive. For the $ - I love my CAMRY SE !

  If it aint broke, dont fix it! - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By Cary - July 26 - 1:26 pm

  I have had my car for two years and 30,000 miles. Not one complaint. Rides like a champ, roomy, big trunk. My prior vehicles were small pickups so I am not a nit picky person when it comes to performance. I am amazed that this car is so smooth and silent. Not a single squeak or anything. I have changed the oil every 5000 miles as recommended and rotated the tires. Follow the owners guide for your type of driving conditions.

  Lexus for a lot less... - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By Scott in Chicago - July 6 - 2:43 pm

  We have a Lexus RX and this is very comparable. Excellent value for the dollar, nice ride, comfy. Shopped the Avalon (not worth $8k more, Ford/Mercury thing (500/Montego), Accord. Toyota reliability, solid feel and quiet triumphed. The Toyota just was an overall winner, and I expect it to be around a long long time. Looks nice in the silverish paint with grey leather, added a spoiler (like the additional brake light size) and it looks ok.

  Our 2nd Camry - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By 2nd time Camry - June 20 - 6:46 pm

  I felt after driving home from the dealer ride was hard. Lowered air pressure of tires to 29-30 lbs.for winter driving which helped a lot. I recommend breaking engine in slowly first 1,000 miles. Does slightly hesitate when accelerated from stop position, I think because engine needs to be nursed slowly in beginning. I love everything else about the car. Interior is real sporty and from outside, it has a European look. Low road noise, handles well on turns,and I love those 17 inch wheels.

  My Camry - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By William Jeffers - June 16 - 8:50 pm

  I love it. Ive owned many cars over the past few years. I bought the Camry for its reliability and reputation and am not disappointed. The car is quiet, smooth, comfortable and I can tell its built better then anything Ive ever owned prior to it. Best purchase Ive ever made. I definitely recommend it.

  My 2005 XLE in Annapolis - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By LJA - June 16 - 3:36 pm

  Very nice car-only have 1600 miles on it and mostly highway so far averaging 25 mpg-hopefully this will go up when broken in more-because the digital display says I am averaging 32 and sometimes while driving says I am getting 60-99 mpg-need to have this checked

  Former Celica owner buys Camry - 2005 Toyota Camry
  By lscott - May 23 - 10:16 pm

  I miss the style of my pre 1995 Celicas and the way they hold the road. But, the new Camry is quiet, powerful, has all the bells and whistles (a bit too many of them...so security conscious it is too easy to lock oneself out!). The styling is dull, the colors available are boring but we expect the usual Toyota reliability and quality of our previous 5 cars. Only have 1200 miles on it so far; time will tell, but very very pleased so far.
