2001 camry LE V6 Gallery Series
I purchased this car from a friend who wanted a 2008 model. It is in excellent shape in all areas. I also like the two tone paint and the other upgrades that went with the Gallery Series. It had 162000 miles on it, but looks like new. I did put new tires on and brake pads and new belts, only because I wanted to start off with them on it. It had been taken care of in all areas. Besides changing the oil on date of purchase, I had the radiator flushed. I only paid $5000.00 for it, and am extremely happy. I have 164000 on it now. My last car was a Cadillac Seville and it had 378000 miles when I gave it up. All my mileage is highway travel. I baby my cars to go as long as possible.
At 180,000 miles, still a Fantastic Car
My Dad bought it in 2003 from a dealership where it was a rental, about 4 years ago he bought a 2009 Camry and let me have the 01 for my first car. I've been driving it daily since I was 16 and have never had a bad day with it. It's quiet, responsive, and when you want power from the engine it will give it to you. It's easy to fix things yourself on, such as oil changes, brakes, even opening up the intake and cleaning the butterfly valve was pretty simple. The Stereo is amazing quality and similar to what you'd find in some luxury cars today. This car has good handling in the snow especially in 2nd gear. Overall it's a perfect first car, or perfect budget car. I've grown to love it

Most reliable car I have ever owned
Take care of this car and you get tired of it before it wears out ! I have been driving for nearly 50 years and have owned a wide variety of vehicles, this car is easily the most reliable car I have ever owned. at 240,000 miles no major mechanical issues ever and no rust in 19 years of Illinois winters.

Excellent first car!
I bought my Camry just shy of 100,000 miles and have had almost nothing but positive experiences. The biggest issue I ran into was the exhaust. I’ve had multiple holes in the system that had been patched until it could no longer be patched and basically all of it had to be replaced other than the muffler. Part of the issue was the car being in Michigan for 16 years with the cold and the salt. Other than that this car has been fantastic and a car that I will be sad to get rid of when the time comes!

Unbeatable value.
I purchased my 2001 Toyota Camry LE 4 cyl. in 2003 with 27000 miles on the odometer. I have driven this car for 9 years without a major repair and only done maintenence, brakes, timing belt and tuneups. The odometer now reads 171000 miles and still going strong. It still has the original exhaust. i find the seats a little uncomfortable and hard but othere than that I would give this car a 10!
