Overview & Reviews

Want air conditioning, power windows/locks/mirrors and variable intermittent wipers on the CE? Buy the Value Package. To get remote keyless entry or a power driver seat on the LE, you must buy a Value Package. A power moonroof and an in-dash six-disc CD changer require the Leather Value Package on XLE models. LE V6 models get daytime running lights standard, while JBL audio is optional on all LEs. The anti-theft system with engine immobilizer is restricted to XLE V6 models.

• Toyota reliability, incredibly powerful and refined optional V6, excellent resale value.

• High prices, uncomfortable seats, forgettable styling.

  camry97 - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By tomnlorna - May 28 - 10:00 am

  I loved my 97 Camry. Unfortunately, I lost it after an accident on I-90 when I was rear-ended by another 1991 Camry. I was hit at 65mph+ on my left rear bumper. I was impressed by how much damage the car absorbed and was almost driveable. The bumper was pushed up to the rear left tire after such an impact. I will definitely buy another one because of its structural durability & safety features.

  V6 Magic - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By Marv - December 24 - 2:00 am

  Excellent automobile with the utmost in reliability and performance. Just love getting on the freeway and opening up or passing when traffic is tough. The V6 engine is more powerful than I imagined. Comfortable, handles great too. Designed for California roads!!!

  One hell of a car - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By Irwin (Irv) Weinberg - December 14 - 10:53 am

  In the years that I have owned this car the most problem I have had is a computer problem with a dash light, fixed in 1/2 hour at the dealer, a tiny bulb replacement and a battery replacement. It is dependable, comfortable and I am still driving it and not yet ready to replace it, and now knowing that it was probably built in the states makes me feel even better. Thank you Mr. Toyota

  How long is forever? - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By in2daark - November 29 - 2:23 pm

  I saw a post that said I wish itd break down so I can buy the tacoma I want. I was waiting for my Camry to pack it in in the past. But at this point (148K miles) I realize that it will be there for me when I need it. Ive only replaced a tail light bulb on this over and above regular scheduled maintenance!

  Gallery Edition - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By Gallery Edition - May 22 - 9:00 pm

  Got this 2001 V6 Gallery Edition Camry as a gift from an aging relative. Got it in 2009 with only 20,000 miles. Edmunds should have mentioned the Gallery Edition. Perfect condition. Excellent JBL! sound, solid V6 power. Bulletproof reliability like all Toyotas. I do all the scheduled maintenance. Car is very easy to drive, but not particularly fun. But, what do you expect, its a Camry. Its like the AK-47 of cars, everyone has one and it never lets you down!

  Good Car - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By Elliot V - April 16 - 10:00 am

  This car never failed me in mechanical ways. The tires that they give have no grip at all. On snow and rain you slide all over the place. I wish they had ABS optional. Also traction control wil be nice. If it had two of those options this car will be perfect for the price and quality of the car.

  AWESOME CAR! - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By esueo - April 11 - 1:06 pm

  I love, love, love this car! Its my first car that I just bought last October for a great price of $3000. It has over 200,000 miles on it and is still going strong! It is so smooth to drive, I feel like Im just gliding down the road. I was looking dot something reliable, small, and good gas mileage, I got it all with my Camry! My dad has driven it across the state of Kentucky multiple times without a problem. I dont ever want to get rid of this car. I didnt want something that looked too "old lady like", which this car is not. Its stylish enough for me and very comfortable to go long distances in. I would trust it to take me anywhere.

  Another Toyota! - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By May2002 - January 18 - 10:00 am

  This is the second Toyota we bought. We have another old Tercel and it is running great with some maintanence. So we trusted Toyota and bought this Camry. It is running great, smooth and quiet. I am thinking of buying another Toyota once I get a raise! :)

  Excellent car - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By Highlanders - December 9 - 10:00 am

  This is a Japanese built car and bulletproof. I had my fill of edgy design and unreliability (i.e. American cars)so went for the conservative look. It has handled every condition I could throw at it and it didnt hurt to have the traction control, ABS, etc. What has made this the best car buying and ownership experience I have ever had (in 40 years of driving) is the dealership. An unbeatable combination.

  My Poor Mans Lexus - 2001 Toyota Camry
  By Ted - December 4 - 5:11 pm

  Ive owned two Camry models so far.The first was a 98 v6 manual that I LOVED. It gets totaled of course. So, I went out and bought the same car but newer: 2001 v6 manual LE model. Its got comfortable leather seats, sunroof that looks slick when tilted, and a nice wood trim package. It feels like a Lexus ES. Heres the best part. ITS PAID OFF. Im in college, so I dont have alot of money. I wanted a little style, performance, and reliability without a monthly note. This car was the answer. I got style and comfort with the wood trim, leather, and 25% tint, performance with the workhorse v6 that surprising powerful with a manual shift, and reliability that is the best. Bought the car for 2 grand with 153k, drove it everywhere, including 1000 miles on a road trip. Only needed a few average repairs for its age, which were cheap. Engine/transmission bulletproof. Buy one of these if your a student, or if you dont have alot of money but want a paid-off reliable vehicle that has some style.
