Another Camry

This is our fourth Camry, but the first with a V6. We traded a 2007 Camry SE I4, and I am not disappointed. The 3.5 V6 is very smooth and powerful. It runs 0-60 and quarter mile times of the infamous 5.0 Mustang from the early 1990s, (in stock form of course). Gas mileage is within 1-2 MPG of the I4. 600 miles already racked up since Friday night.

As usual, cannot see blind spot

As usual, with so many cars out there today, you cannot see your blind spot with the camry. Even if you turn your head to the left, out of a total of 180 degrees, you will only be able to see about 45 degrees. With my old 00 Corolla, you could turn your head and literally look down the street in the left lane. With the new camry, you cannot - you must use your mirrors and buy a blind spot mirror; and using mirrors is dangerous when making split second decisions - you simply can't see down the left lane with this car - obstructions block it. Dangerous car. Its a very, very dangerous car. I almost got into about 5 accidents already with it on multi lane roads/highways. I want to get rid of it.

2008 camry - steering problems at 68,500 miles

AAA AAA, 10/22/2018
2008 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
5 of 6 people found this review helpful

The 2008 camry is not a good vehicle - Problems encountered: Leaking steering rack recommended replacement by dealer at less than 60,000 miles. The Toyota dealer does a poor job and the steering completely fails less than 2 years later. The car consumes oil and it can lose more than a quart in 1,500 miles. The ignition key broke in half and needed replacement. The sun visors do not stay up, blocking the view and had to be taken off. The dashboard is literally flaking off. There are other more intermittent problems. I do not even have confidence the car will last to 100,000 miles. This car was purchased new and was not abused.

No problems with this vehicle. Kept up with the maintenance/oil changes. The car was never a problem even when winter temps drop below 0 degrees, this car has never let me down.

Disappointing

2008 Toyota Camry SE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5M)

Smooth ride but headrest is so uncomfortable I had to reverse it. Dash control background is black - looks like a black hole in many situations. Somehow, I can never get the seat position 'perfect' to be comfortable. I wish speedometer was labeled in 10 mph increments, its very easy to go faster than you thought and get a ticket. A pain to reach for seat belt - it manages to get stuck behind door frame somehow. 5 speed is a dream to drive, shifts perfectly. Great car with minor but continual small irritations.
