1992 Toyota Camry 4 Dr XLE V6 Sedan

Review

This is a very well built car. I have the 3.0 liter v6 and it runs VERY strong. I took out the horrible fan design that runs off of the power steering and hooked up 2 electric fans with a relay on the ignition. Just got a new performance transmission put in it with a cold air intake and its a very quick car. I bought it for $300 and it had a wrecked hood and radiator and I replaced that for $350. And the new tranny was only $1100.

Favorite Features

I love that mine came with the chrome 5 star wheels. The leather interior. The easily accessible engine. GREAT CAR.

Suggested Improvements

They should have made a 3.8 liter version. Then I coulda slapped a supercharger intake on it.

Bought my 1992 Camry about 15 years ago and have been really satisfied with it. Few major mechanical issues over the years - most of them self induced (e.g., too hard on the transmission). Still runs great after all these years. Expect that it will run for another 50,000 miles. Consistently get 20 mpg.

The best car that I've ever owned!

Review

My 1992 Toyota Camry is the best car that I've ever owned. I have over 166,000 miles on it and it's still as reliable as when it was new. It's a 4 cylinder that gets great gas mileage plus it starts even on a cold Minnesota winter day.

Best car ever for me

Review

Bought my xle v6 with 60,000 in 1994. It now has 270,000 and in that time have changed brake pads 3 times, CV boots twice, wires and plugs once, two timing belts and struts and other that filters, tires and oil.... That is it ! If I could buy this car new today, I would. Best car I ever owned (I am 60 years old).

Review

I knew the original owner, so I knew how well the car had been taken care of. I love it. The only problem I have had is an oil smell in the engine compartment. It doesn't use oil that I know of, I have it changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Runs great. I'm hoping to get 400,000. I'm so spoiled I'm afraid to have to get a new car, besides they're all ugly.

Favorite Features

The headlights that come on when the engine starts and go off when the door is opened. Should be standard on every car made.

Suggested Improvements

AC vents in back seat area.

Surprisingly bad

Review

I was surprised with all the trouble I had with it. I had to replace the rack, water pump, and radiator. When I managed to get rid of it, the heater didn't work and I was still having problems with the car overheating, there was a major leak in the air conditioning system, and the AT wasn't shifting well. I suspect that a previous owner must have badly mistreated this vehicle (and possibly rolled back the odometer), though it's possible Toyota occasionally produces an individual lemon.

Favorite Features

Comfortable car that handled well, even though the ball joints were also bad. Solid engine.

Suggested Improvements

Given that the car I had may have been an anomaly, there's nothing I can suggest.

It Doesn't Get Any Better!

Review

I mean it's no Lexus but boy can this car go and go and it's still going. It is now 15 years old with 136k miles. This is my first car and I have developed a special type of appreciation for it. I have never done anything except for the reg. maintenance, all of the parts are still original and my mechanic says it still has a long way to go. My uncle was the previous owner and he took great care of it. I am so impressed with Toyota that I wouldn't even consider another make. Why should I. This is a great first car and it's great for college students like me. And another great thing, the body of the car doesn't look like that of a 92 model, it looks way newer than it is.

Favorite Features

Everything. The always functioning moon roof, the comfy seats. The ac and heater still work perfectly fine. And all the functions are great.

Suggested Improvements

The cup holders are in the worse location ever. I always spill my drinks. Other than that there are none

Love My Camry

Review

I purchased my '92 Camry XLE third-hand from an elderly couple. This is my second Camry, and I love it. I haven't had to put any money into this car except for scheduled maintenance and annual touch up painting. I have 111,000 miles on the odometer and hope to get to 200,000 or 20 years old, whichever comes first! My only complaint about the car is that it has a moon roof that takes up head space and makes it a little "short" for me. I'm 5'11". Other than that, I couldn't ask for better performance or reliability.

Review

I love this car! My Camry has over 250,000 miles on it and is running close to as well as it did when it was purchased new. This car has been the most reliable car I have ever owned. Of course, there have been minor problems but considering the mileage, nothing major is great. These cars look great for being 15 years old. People can't believe the condition of this car after that amount of time. Routine maintenance has kept it going strong. I recommend this car to anyone who is looking to buy.

Favorite Features

V6 has great power, leather seats very comfortable, engine runs great!

Suggested Improvements

None that come to mind. I really believe this is one of the best made cars on the road.

I purchased my 92 camry used, with 130000 miles. I used it for 2 and a half years for work. driving an estimated 60000 miles a year. I had no problems other than an emission coil needing replaced. other than that it has been well worth money spent. and money earned from this work horse.
