Used 2003 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5M) Consumer Reviews
Nice car!
I've owned it for about a month. Rides very smoothly. In fact, rides more smoothly than most other cars I've test driven. The shocks absorb bumps nicely where you don't even notice. Not a super sporty car, but is a solid sedan that should last for years.
bad a/c
This is my 2nd Camry. I have had major problems with A/C. The compressor, motor, and other components had to be replaced. Getting parts was a real hassle. Also, the intermittent wipers did not work when I bought it. I have had to replace tires at less than 30,000 miles which is rediculous. I don't know if I have a lemon or what.I am aprehensive about the A/C.

No problems yet
I purchased used with 25,000 miles and now have 166,000 miles on the car. I routinely get 31-33 mpg traveling at 70-75 mph. I change oil every 4K miles and at 100k had spark plugs, belts and trans fluid changed. At 135K replaced front brake pads and rotors. Only non maintenance issue was at 150k when the air conditioning would not work. The a/c button would flash on and off and the compressor clutch would not engage. I looked at some online posts and found that thea particular AC relay part number had been causing problems and had been replaced. For $55 I plugged in a new relay and AC has worked fine since. Car is still tight and rattle free, love the JBL stereo and huge trunk.
as always, a reliable toyota
My wife and I purchased a 2002 dealer demo in August, 2002. After only two months on the road, my wife was involved in a pretty serious accident with it, getting hit head on at approximately 50-60 mph, and walked away. That made up my mind on the next car, a Camry. We just took delivery of the '03. What a nice car. Hopefully Toyota has worked any kinks that the 2002's may have had (we didn't have ours long enough to experience any), but we got the dark blue color along with 5 star rims, and this is one sporty car.
Great car, except for seats
Love the car, except for the seat issue. Back half of seat is soft. Front half of seat is hard, as it has a flat metal piece under it. There is a lot of pressure at the transition which cuts off the blood circulation.
