This is my first Toyota purchase. I felt that if bought a Camry, I could kiss any frustrations goodbye. Not true! This car has an annoying lag time when the car is slowing down ( stop and go traffic), and then you try to accelerate. There is a dead spot, then it jumps ahead, as if the transmission doesn"t know which gear to go in. This is the new Drive by wire technology according to Toyota. The local dealership has acknowledged this a problem, and they are working on a programming change, but in the meantime, the car can be very aggravating to drive. They must resolve this problem. I will not put up with it. As for gas mileage, it is not as good as stated. The car does have lots of power.

I have owned a 2001 Camry CE 2.2L, 2004 Camry LE2.4L, 2002 Camry xle 3.0l and now this 2004 Camry SE 3.3L my wife has the Lexus 330 yes Lexus rides smother and quitter but the power feel a lot more in the Camry I average about 26 mpg city driving. I had a 04 accord coupe 5 speed 4cyl and averaged about 24mpg. will be buying another Camry in the future as they hold the value even with a salvage title. would recommend this car to anyone. @ 100mph it feels that you are going only 65... not bad at all. yes the transmission can use a little work but it does not bother me so I wont complain..

I purchased this toyota in hopes of having a long lasting, high quality vechile. I felt the price was high, but for the supposed benefits, I bought it anyways. Then the problems started. Whenever I turned on the defroster, this clicking noise started. After three seperate trips to the dealership, it still was not solved. The gas milage I was getting was lower than my grandfather's Lesabre, which is a much larger car/engine. Then, at 17,543 miles, the head gasket blew. Problems arose when dealing with toyota over the warrenty, and finally they fixed it after I threatened legal action. Overall this car is not reliable or dependable.
Will never buy a Toyota Again

This has been the most horrid car I have ever purchased. The transmission died with less than 5000 on it. The dealership blamed me: said I raced it! Seat fabric came apart on passenger seat. Water pump already died. I have only had this car 5 months!
Real Deal on my Camry

I believe ever since Toyoya started building cars in America, quality has gone down. I bought my Camry with 1000 miles already on it, but it was new since it had no title. Problems I've had with my car are, the paint - no clearcoat and one layer of paint make it easy to get chips, I have MANY; dashboard - rattles; sunroof - leaks; front passenger speaker - rattles; engine - V6 is not responsive; and the front driver window - doesnt seal properly. The only problem that has been solved is the leaking sunroof. All other problems have been brought to MULTIPLE Toyota dealerships and ignorance has caused me to still have these problems to date. If you want a more reliable car, look elsewhere.
