Couldn't ask for more, especially at 215k miles

2003 Toyota Camry SE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
I bought this Camry in December of 2014 with 193k miles on it for only $3,000 and 22k miles later all she had needed have been new tires, wiper blades and regular oil changes. This car was a well taken care of 1 owner car before me so I was lucky. She cranks without hesitation every day even in sub- zero winter temps in Michigan and has yet to leave me stranded. The acceleration is … still there, handling solid and noises I'm sure are comparable to the day it was driven off the lot. The SE model doesn't look as dated as most 13 year old cars and the body has aged well with one minor rust spot the size of a nickle I fixed myself. The funny thing is every time I see another car I consider buying I drive it and read the reviews to find myself loving my Camry more. So here's to another year together, I would recommend this car to anyone and let my daughter drive it if she wasn't 3. Proud to be a Toyota family as we own a 2011 Sienna as well.

380k and Still going

2003 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
I purchased this Camry new in 12/02. I commute to work about 120 miles everyday, and this car has served me well for 380,000 miles. I change the oil every 3,000 miles. I've changed with suspension 3 times, brakes have been done 3 times. Apart from routine maintenance, the only problem this car has given me, was the A/C compressor went out at 210k. Not a big deal considering when it was … replaced. I treat this car well, and it returns the favor. You can't get any better than that.

2003 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
I totally recommend this car. I had Lexus few years ago and this car has nothing to envy to Lexus if you talk about comfort and reliability, silent engine. Great to drive, Not a sexy body but a great car. I love my Camry

2003 Toyota Camry SE V6 4dr Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 5A)
My car is on its last limb!! But...As long as you have the required maintenance performed on this car it will definitely give you your money's worth!!
My only dislike is the interior door handles. The material peeled off!! But other than that I love this car!!
