Used 2001 Toyota Camry Consumer Reviews
Think long and hard before you purchase
Check the re-sale value before you purchase...you may think twice! I have the SE model and wish I would have waited longer before purchasing this vehicle. It's been in the shop 3 times (within 1 year) for a knocking sound under the hood. The dealership told me that it was loose strut caps, and now they don't know what the problem is (they say they don't hear anything now...hmmm) and the problem is still not fixed. It does not do well in snow - slides all over the road. Although this car is very roomy, I wouldn't purchase another.
This Car Has been Good to Me!
I have had the car which I purchased new for over 2 years now and it has been really good to me. No problems whats so ever. Car has no raddle-ing which I had always experienced in American made cars after a few years. The car drives just like it did (when it was brand new!) The inside cabin is so quiet, (similiar to a Lexus) I was amazed! I love my Toyota, and would purchase another Toyota product.

This has been a GREAT all around car for us. We have had it for about 18 months and have had nothing but good things to say. The Camry is spacious, comfortable, and quiet. We have a 2 year old and one more on the way, and we have no problems with fitting car seats in the back.
CE 4cyl 5spd
Bought new at the end of July, '01. Live in Seattle area, park outside, with some evergreens in the area. Keep car washed and waxed, and haven't burned out on that, yet! Drive alone most of the time, 70% freeway, some stop and go. Had one cold start sputter a few months after purchase, which lasted about 15 seconds. No repeats since. Have had no mechanical problems with car. Is basically same as the day it came off the showroom floor. If I had a garage, it would be just like new. It is not a sports car, and if I drove it like one, I may not be as happy as I am.
Camry
My seventh Toyota and it is a pleasure. I still have my '87 Camry wagon and it is in great shape as well. Reliable, reliable, reliable and hold their value well. Once I had a fancy expensive sports car, I don't need to look pretty while I wait for the tow truck in the hot Arizona sun. Six Toyotas and not a single complaint on any of them and I have never been left on the side of the road by any of them.
