• Reliable, well-built, and comfortable, the 1998 Toyota Camry is one of the best entrants in the mid-size family sedan market.

  270,000 miles and still going! - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By Jared - July 1 - 2:36 am

  I bought my camry in July 2016 and used the heck out of it throughout the summer, putting 12,000 miles on it in the summer. I am the second owner and the first owner took really good care of it- oil changes, radiator flushes, etc... For some reason the check engine light keeps coming on and off, but overall this car has saved me a lot of money. I was stuck driving a truck that got 10 miles per gallon, but my camry gets way better. Update: Im now up to 290000 miles and the only repairs done were the replacement of the factory timing belt and the serpentine belt

  Camry a.k.a. TANK! - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By Kc Stebbins - February 15 - 5:01 am

  This car may not be anything sporty or highly appealing but I give Toyota all credit by making a strong running reliable car! This car has been by far the BEST car Ive ever owned. I purchased the car with 235k on it so it was well broke in. The car now has 284k on it and has never failed me. Other than regular maintenance of changing the timing belt, tires, brakes, oil. I have had no major issues at all with this car. Everything works on it. It does consume a little oil though but the car is going on 18 years old. I would recommend anyone to buy a camry. The build quality is amazing too. Everything is still in tact inside and out. It is very comfortable to drive on trips as well. I lived in Ohio and taken the vehicle to Indiana, Michigan, west Virginia and Kentucky several times, and here just recently drove the car from Ohio all the way to Arizona with absolutely no problems! I hope this car lasts for a long time to come even with almost 300k on it. I will definitely be buying another camry for my next car. Toyota has me sold, compared to other brands of cars that consistently have problems and dont even live to see the day of 200,000+ miles

  Super Reliable - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By J. Heller - December 19 - 7:23 pm

  This is my fourth Toyota. Have never owned anything but Toyotas. While its not my favorite (options, luxury), it has been my most reliable. Bought it with 41,000 Has 192,000 on it now. This one has needed the least amount of repairs compared to my others. Still going strong, still gets excellent gas mileage (its a manual, which helps)! Other than a few rattles, this one has lots of miles left in it!

  A keeper - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By Doc - November 8 - 10:26 pm

  Bought our Camry used with 65,000 miles on it, and put on another 65,000 so far. This is easily the best car I have owned in my 30 years of driving. It is still like new, very few squeaks or rattles. Very few problems - burned out light bulbs, other minor items. I figure another 65,000 miles and we will pass it on to our kid.

  The War Horse That Would Never Die - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By Spencer - July 6 - 12:06 pm

  My wife got this car new before we met in 1999. It had 18k on it when I came along. Now its less than 500 miles from 400k. It has been the epitome of reliable. Its had some replacement items (front struts, some axle work and transmission at 370k), but that is to be expected for a car that has been driven the distance of earth to the moon...plus another 161k on the surface of the moon! The only design flaw are the plastic door handles which over time simply break off. My brother-in-law owns car dealerships and actually sold my wife this unit but even he said theres no way to retrofit a metal handle on the doors. So I just get tie wraps and loop them through to allow easy entry to the car. Weird? Sure, but I dont care. No car payments is a good kind of "weird" so Im driving this sucker til the wheels fall off. Even then Ill just throw some spares on and go another 400k! This is to update my original report shown above. 13,000 miles later and shes still running. As noted above my Camry shows her age (original gray exterior paint has some degree of fading in spots but this is 20 year old paint, so that should come as no surprise. Overall, I couldnt be happier to drive this highly durable vehicle and hope I can still say this a few years from now.
