  Great in many ways - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By me - December 19 - 3:00 am

  Bought it new.. Very reliable car, NEVER had a problem, just brought it in to be serviced as needed and everything was always smooth. With driving every day, but mostly local, I could go 3 weeks before needing more gas. Not a "cool" car but definitely reliable and worth the money... it will last for many miles. After an accident, and the car being totalled, proved to be a safe car to the driver. I would recommend this car.

  Charcoal canister & sensor - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By parmiller - November 20 - 10:00 am

  At 17000 miles had to replace charcoal canister at cost of $400. Dealer said we were overfilling the fuel tank. This week at 21000 same problem, engine dash light comes on. Now they say we need an air sensor for $261 plus labor.Cause was stated as using Mobil gas, should use Sunoco. $800 in repair bills for fuel related problems. This is rediculus.

  By AliArman - November 20 - 10:00 am

  This is such a great car. Its like anld dependable friend who comes thru every time. The suspension is a little soft and theres a little bit of this and a little bit of that in the interior but I have driven many other cars and no one comes close to Camry.

  Great car - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By Vlad - October 21 - 9:56 am

  My parents bought this car in August 2001 and they gave it to me in August 2006. Great car and great reliability. Drove it back and forth 350 miles each way every weekend for two months between mid April and mid June. The only thing that needed to be replaced was the rear strut.

  fundamentally sound, but... - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By W. Green - August 29 - 12:00 am

  Boring, but reliable. Disappointed to find a problem with the left turn signal and a significant rattle somewhere in the right front portion of the car. Both defects are chronic for this model and year. No drivers lumbar support. No map lights. Remote does not open trunk.

  camry - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By homerj - August 22 - 2:00 am

  This has been an excellent car. I bought it with 49k miles on it and it now has 115k. I have only changed the oil and replaced the battery at 70k. that is the only maintenance performed so far. It consistently gets 35 mpg on the freeway and above 30 in town. It is a 4 cyl/5 speed combo. I wish that all cars were this reliable.

  Camry LE - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By Jsansone - May 14 - 12:50 am

  I enjoy this car, it runs great and have minor repairs to it. I got this car with 100,338 miles on it with one other owner and the baby is still kicking! its a great car, a huge advancement from my 2002 dodge neon. It is a very, very, very smooth ride and the engine is very quiet, sometimes when I am at a red light I have to check my RPM just to make sure my engine is still running.

  High School Car - 1998 Toyota Camry
  By Monkeywrencher - April 2 - 9:16 pm

  As a college student I find this to be a perfect car. I have had this car for several years and have only had minor issues with it. One complaint is the windows! Back passenger side window will not roll up or down..currently held in place with clear duct tape. Drivers window will not roll up unless you wait 5 min to gain 1 inch of window. Other than that I have never had any engine problems and love my car! So much better than my old Chevy Blazer 1994!
