  • Great Car; Worst Seats Ever - 2009 Toyota Camry
    By -

    This is a wonderful automobile, especially for the price. We find the ride relatively smooth and quiet; wonderful on trips (36 MPG w/AC). Unfortunately, after 60 minutes, one finds that Toyota has designed the WORST front car seats ever placed in an automobile; your back and bottom will suffer! We are so upset, I am shopping after 18K miles. In prior vehicles, I have driven for days for over 12 hours per; not in this car. Two of my relatives, who have never had back pain, now have problems when they drive their Camry (same yr). In today’s market, this is inexcusable. I would gladly provide Toyota with a design solution, if they cared.

  • Very Reliable Car!!! - 2009 Toyota Camry

    The car is very low mileage and I have gotten the car serviced on a regular bases. Great Michelin tires.

  • Dependable car but uncomfortable seats - 2009 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I bought this car for the dependability and easy handling. You dont need muscles to turn the steering wheel or stop the car. However, the drivers seat is uncomfortably hard and I hurt after a few minutes of highway driving. Also theres no lateral support. The head thing hits me when Im on the road. I never feel like I can relax in the seat. I have to sit leaning forward, lumbar deflated, grasping the wheel at 10 and 2, or Im in pain. Ive had pains around my hip muscles and lower back since buying this car. Also, I cant see behind me when backing out of parking space due to pillars. Otherwise, it has a nice ride and looks good.

  • Great handling Camry - 2009 Toyota Camry
    By -

    This is the 3rd Camry my wife and I have owned--and by far the best. Handling is excellent-with little sacrifice from usual Camry ride. Performance is generally good for a 4, but a little lacking on upgrades. Very roomy and comfortable. Loved the stability control during a Cleveland winter. We like the styling a lot- different from usual Camrys. No problems so far (11,000 miles over 14 months).

  • Worth Every Penny - 2009 Toyota Camry
    By -

    Its our first Toyota Camry. We decided to purchase one after our old 88 BMW required frequent maintenance. Rides quietly. Very roomy. We traveled outside the city on the weekend for more than 2 hrs and my passengers were in total comfort! I wish I was in the back enjoying the ride. The downside of the car: climate control can need more power for the back passengers, weak acceleration from start, blind spots are many (due to airbag compartments) I had to install two blind spot mirrors. Amazing fuel consumption esp. in LA where theres 24/7 traffic. Music qualitys fantastic. Spacious trunk. I love driving big cars so Camrys the perfect size

  • Our second SE V6 - 2009 Toyota Camry
    By -

    We found a lot of value in our 04 SE V6 so when we shopped a new car we looked for the same platform in a 2009. So far we are very pleased with the upgrades and the same solid performance and value we expected from the SE V6. It sits lower despite the bigger wheels and has a quieter and more "planted" ride than the older model. The brakes are excellent and the engine power is enhanced by the upgraded 6 speed transmission.

  • Honda Fans new Camry - 2009 Toyota Camry
    By -

    My Camry LE 4 cyl 5 speed auto has about 3,800 miles now. In suburban driving (avg 35 mph, few stops) and highway (avg 78 mph mostly cruise control), my day in, day out suburban/highway combined mileage is 28 mpg. The car is comfortable and attractive, but has mushy handling and a constantly shifting auto trans. The car is unstable driving in gusty winds. The ergonomics arent as good as my 2000 Honda Accord. I bought the Camry because I just couldnt stand the looks of the 2008/9 Accord. Interesting that my Camry requires oil changes at 5,000, while the Accord was listed as 7,500. My Camry stereo has intermittent failure, but other than that, cars delivered quality was good.

  • A Pleasure to Drive - 2009 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I just got the new Camry and so far I am very happy with the purchase. It is a sweet looking ride and handles very well. Great stereo system.

  • This is a great car - 2009 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I just got back from a cross country trip and I am extremely happy with my new Camry. The ride is exactly what I want from a car. I checked out the Accord and the Altima and the Camry is so much quieter than those it is unbelievable. The only extra I got on mine is the JBL audio system which lets me make hands free calls. This should be something standard on all cars. Also, the sound of the stereo is by far better than anything Ive ever had in a car. Love the smooth quiet ride. I highly recommend this car
