  No Fun. - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By fbanksw - May 24 - 10:30 am

  I loved my 93 Camry, but sold it and bought a Nissan Altima - huge mistake. Nothing but woes, but when my son started college instead of trading it (and losing money). I gave it to him and happily went out to get myself the 2009 Camry. Its been a big disappointment. The transmission seems to constantly self adjust on even the slightest of hills and its so annoying, how it seems to struggle to accelerate. Its totally a drag, especially when the AC is on and this has taken all the fun out of driving my new car.

  Our Camrys tires needed replacing at 20,000 miles. So disappointed. Hard to see while backing up.

  Loving It! - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By KarenLS1956 - March 1 - 8:50 am

  Lease was up on my 2005 Highlander V6 Limited which I enjoyed. Did a lot of homework on smaller SUVs since we are empty nesters now and always said Id never go back to a car. Test drove many SUVs then I test drove the Camry for the heck of it and I was sold. Fits me like a glove. Cant believe the smoothness and quiet cabin which is my #1 priority. Had 2 Honda Accords years ago and thought they were the best cars I ever owned but I was wrong, this Camry surpasses any vehicle Ive had. Didnt take any adjusting from driving an SUV to a car which I thought Id feel. Gas mileage is excellent compared to the Highlander. City 24.6. Highway not sure yet. Loving every aspect of this car!

  Its been a great first two weeks - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By Anand - February 26 - 9:20 pm

  I was debating between a Honda Civic and a Camry and decided on the Camry since we are expecting a child and roominess and the quiet ride of the Camry sold me on it. The gas mileage is great, the first tank gave me 29.75/gallon (491 on 16.5), and this included a lot of traffic driving. Filled up again and it was a surprising 36/gallon (208.3 on 5.6). Although I admit I was careful accelerating and not going beyond 70mph, but drove upto 80mph. Definitely has the power when you need it. Impressed with the quiet engine. The VVT-i is solid, smooth transmission not too jerky when switching gears on an uphill.

  The most fun Ive had driving - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By Dee - January 19 - 6:40 am

  I traded up from a 2005 Corolla the best choice I have every made, don’t get me wrong it was a great car but compared to my Camry it was just a baby. My Camry runs just as smooth as my mom’s Infiniti G35. The wheel mounted controls, blue tooth and speed/noise sensitive volume control, without a doubt make it the best full size sedan out there for the money. I know because I tried almost all of them the Madza6, Malibu, Altima, Sonata, Accord even a Hyundai Genesis and they all fail in comparison. Trust me.

  Fast grocery getter - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By mdfuzz - December 11 - 10:00 am

  Fast V6 with passing power needed for those long drives. Ive put 41K miles on mine in under 2 years and, (aside from some fit and finish hiccups), I have little to complain about. The rear passenger side window track mechanism fell apart and the lower front grill fell off early on, but both were fixed under warranty. The recalls were also an inconvenience. Strayed from the Honda when I bought her because I didnt like the new Honda Accord body style.

  Great mix of style and reliabilty - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By wnyken - December 9 - 7:26 pm

  This will be my 5th Toyota in the family since my 1989 Camry. I chose the SE model for the sportier look and crisper handling. I also like the black leather and black and chrome trim. The only thing I could wish for would be either/both bluetooth connectivity and/or satellite radio capability on the base radio. Other than that, it looks good, rides wonderfully, has lots of space for people and/or luggage and gives me good gas mileage while doing it all.

  Camry 09 - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By Tony - December 9 - 4:23 pm

  My wife just received the car a few weeks ago and Im quite impressed. I drive a 2003 Lexus that I purchased new and its almost identical, but with more up to date features like cooled seats, MP3 connection, bluetooth connection for a cell, etc. I agree with a previous review about less HP, but Im sure this might be related to fuel economy which is satisfacory on this car considering its a full size sedan. Overall, a very good car.

  30 MPG with a 260 HP V-6! - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By George - November 29 - 5:13 am

  I drive 40,000 miles a year and was looking for a dependable car that would be comfortable as well. I wanted navigation, bluetooth, leather and auto temp A/C, so I went with the XLE. I have seen people saying that they were getting 30 mpg on the highway with the Camry V-6 and they are right, first tank was 29.86 mpg (90 % highway). Car is much quieter than the Honda.

  Hate my car!! - 2009 Toyota Camry
  By jennifer_zuri - November 16 - 6:19 am

  I wanted a Camry for such a long time. I traded my 2003 Chevy Tracker with 140k miles for this piece of junk Camry. I had the car for 5k miles and it already needed new brakes. The take off is terrible, the RPMs go very high on take off, it smells like it is burning and the interior is very poor. My air circulator turns off all the time letting the outside air in and the ride is really rough. The clearance is terrible and now @ 40k miles the dealer tells me that I have to get a fuel injector cleaner on 3 of the injectors (at 150 a pop), a power steering flush and again new brakes! WOW, what a deal!!
