  Great car! - 2008 Toyota Camry
  By Phil - April 24 - 4:06 am

  After two decades of driving SUVs I finally gave in to high gas prices and bought a vehicle with better mileage. I spent way too much time on the internet researching and then test driving different cars before choosing the Camry. After owning my Camry SE V6 for six momnths I have no regrets. I chose the SE because I liked the tighter sport suspension. The V6 provides very good power yet I get an average of 28 MPG with mostly highway driving. Another plus; Im over 6 feet tall and I fit comfortably in this car. I commute 60 miles round trip to work and truely enjoy driving this vehicle. I dont miss my SUV, if I need a larger vehicle for a day to haul more people or stuff Ill just rent one.

  "I LOVE WHAT YOU DO FOR ME"!!! - 2008 Toyota Camry
  By minivanguy - January 19 - 6:06 pm

  Toyota makes great vehicles. This is by far the best car I ever had. If you drive one for more then a couple of minutes, youll see and feel the cars Lexus like qualities. The interior and exterior design is very pleasing to the eyes and touch (except for a few cheap plastics in the cabin). The cabin is very quiet on all fronts via wind noise, engine noise, road, etc. Going over bumps is like driving over gentle pebbles. There is no rattles in the cabin just tranquility. Now if youre going to be driving your car like The Fast and Furious, it also does good in that area.

  Not impressed - 2008 Toyota Camry
  By lmarie517 - January 17 - 12:53 am

  This is my first Toyota, and I must say I am not impressed. The car is sluggish at best, transmission shifts often and hard (especially noticeable during braking). The car cant seem to get out of its own way. Transmission also has a very noticeable delay. I cant get rid of this car soon enough.

  Uses Oil Between Changes - 2008 Toyota Camry
  By jlechevalier - January 11 - 2:44 am

  My 2008 Camry uses 1/4 to 1/2 quart of oil per month. Toyota is aware of this widespread problem but has not issued a recall or set up a customer support program. Had this started during the first 5 years, there was a TBS (or something like that), but mine didnt start until around 60,000 miles last year, which seems to be the mileage at which this problem starts. I bought this car new - it had 6 miles on it, and all oil changes have been done. If the rings and pistons need to be replaced, which is the one solution the dealer came up with, the cost will be $3800.

  2008 Toyota Camry SE V6 - 2008 Toyota Camry
  By Black08SEV6 - December 27 - 2:33 am

  I bought my Camry to replace my 04 Miata (loved my car, but to have a car pmt and buy premium gas once a week - small tank; 190-220 miles before empty). For economic purposes I bought my Camry but insisted on the more adolecent SE V6 trim. I love the look of the car, the aggressive front end, everything about it. I do not regret my purchase one bit. My sunroof squeaked over bumps, but a quick dealer visit fixed it (theres a TSB).

  2008 XLE V6 Camry - 2008 Toyota Camry
  By Kirby Thomson - December 9 - 7:30 pm

  A really good car that really shines the more we drive. Both a good car for in city driving and getting 25 mpg or better with A/C in summer driving. Best on highway was 34 mpg with no A/C in cooler weather. Ultra smooth 6-speed auto trans with the V6 makes a car jump on the highway with a breeze. Just wish had the handling of our previous Acura TL but we love not having to purchase premium fuel. Size is perfect for wife taste and big enough for the 6-2 foot son in back seat. A good buy for us with our needs and hope to keep a long time so reliability was important.

  2008 My camry - 2008 Toyota Camry
  By cam_guy - November 22 - 5:33 am

  Overall the Camry is a great car, I have many Camrys over the past 20 years. The ride is what I want, handling is good too. I feel Toyota is slipping in overall quality. The finish inside has cheapened, but its little better on the 08 then the 07. The Bluetooth system stinks in my opinion, will not recognize my verbal commands very well.

  New Toyota Camry Transmission Problem - 2008 Toyota Camry
  By Marc - July 4 - 7:30 am

  This car came with a defect in the software governing the transmission. The glitch causes a 3 - 4 second delay when rapid acceleration is needed. This is a safety hazard, and is the reason I strongly advise people to consider a different car manufacturer. Toyota has done nothing to address this issue, which I noticed immediately after driving off the new car lot. I did not test drive this car before signing the paperwork, but instead drove a test model "just like it" which did not have the glitch. The dealership and corporate office have shown an utter indifference, and deny that this is a safety concern. It IS a safety concern, so please consider a different manufacturer.
