  • Underrated! - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    Excellent vehicle that is very comfortable and reliable. Great sound system. For the critics that rated the Camry a 7 or lower. Research your vehicles a little more before you make a purchase. The Camry gets better with every new design.

  • I LOVE MY CAR - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    ALTHOUGH I JUST BOUGHT MY CAR YESTERDAY, I LOVE IT I THINK THAT FOR THE PRICE I PAYED IT IS AN EXCELLENT CAR, I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING CARS FOR THE LAST TWO MONTHS, AND DIDNT EVEN THINK TO BUY A CAMERY, THE BODY STYLES THAT I HAD SEEN AROUND WERE THE OLDER BODY STYLE, BUT WHEN I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SAT IN THIS CAR I KNEW IT WAS THE ONE, NOT ONLY DOES IT HAVE A STYLISH DESIGN, BUT ITS BUILT GREAT HAS A LOT OF POWER, AND I FEEL LIKE I AM DRIVING A LUXURY CAR WITHOUT HAVING TO PAY LUXURY PRICE, I HIGHLY RECOMEND THIS CAR TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR THEIR FIRST CAR BUT WHO CANT SPEND A LOT OF MONEY

  • Good car but with minor problems - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I like car has a smooth, quite ride. The camry does deliver these. However, it stats high pitch rattles after 1000 miles. I will go to dealers and see what they can do about it. I knew this was a problem before I bought it, just hoped they solved the minor problem after one years production. Obviously, I was wrong. Believe me, the rattles are very annoying. And it is very intruding in the relatively quite cabin. I mean my old Taurus rattles all the time, but its engins hums and wind noise are both louder which makes rattles less noticable.

  • Toyota Camry xle v6 - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    Althought I have only approximately 2000 miles on my Camry, I believe I have formed some clear opinions on its quality. The ride is terrific. It is not a sport sedan, however it handles quite well and should satisfy the vast majority of drivers. The v6 has enough power for the preponderance of American drivers and is quiet and smooth. The overall build quality is excellent.

  • Better than Avalon or Lexus - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    Even at 60,000 it still runs and looks great-no wear at all on leather interior. Get about 29 miles per gallon mixed city and highway. The V^ delivers what I want, when I want it without delays. When I think about trading, I get in it and end up asking myself "are you crazy?" I have looked at 2007 Lexus, Camry XLE and Avalon, but not any better in reality. Also, not nearly as well designed inside, especialy the dash and consoles. Super low cost to maintain-change oil & filter and go for the most part. Paint is in excellent condition. Seats are exceptionally comfortable and rides like a dream.

  • Out of Competition - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I have been looking for a medium family sedan/SW that is comfortable enough for weekend/vacation trips. Tried all new Honda Accord, Subaru Outback, Volkswagen Passat, and all Camrys. Selected this Camry XLE. It is out of competition.

  • Best Car I have ever owned! - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    A few pesty rattles in the dash and Sunroof, other then that, it has been a perfect car. 4 cyl eng has plenty of power, ride on the fwy at 80 all day with ease. I can say this car has spoiled me for any other car, even ones much more expensive. By the way this car is the most quiet car overall than any thing I have driven before. My last car was a 97 Jaguar XJ6.

  • I love this car - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I just bought my first Toyota of any kind, a Camry. I love driving this car, because it handles so well. I love the quiet engine. This car is a must have for anyone looking for a dependable, smooth, and comfortable ride. I havent had the car for a very long time, but I can say it is a car I look forward to driving.

  • Great while it lasted, beware of known issue - 2003 Toyota Camry
    By -

    I loved this car while it was running. It handled well, it was a smooth and comfortable ride, it was easy to maintain. It was wonderful. *However*, I knew when I bought this car that it had known issues with stripping head bolts. I wish I had walked away. The car lasted 180k miles before the head bolts ended up stripping and the head gasket blew. Now that those issues have been fixed, it has a massive oil leak that hasnt been found yet. Its been a nightmare. I dont know if the stripping is inevitable or not, but Ive heard of enough incidents of this to strongly recommend you look at a 2007 or newer model instead of this one. Buy at your own risk!
