Used 2011 Toyota Camry Consumer Reviews
Best car ever
I have driven many cars so far...nissan sentra, jeep, honda accord, honda CR-v, but toyota camry is the best car so far. I used be like..ahhh i dont want to drive and my husband used drive evrytime wherever we go...and since we have Toyota camry...there is no chance anybody else is driving. Driving is like my hobby now, and the seats are so comfortable in camry that u feel like..those seats are custom made just for you...i just did long journey like 9 - 10 hours drive...and it was amazing...didnt get tired at all...instead it was so much fun just because i drove Toyota camry....lv it..
NOT THE BEST DEPENDABLE CAR FOR ANY YEAR...
bought this care 2011 987 miles. now at 125, 900 miles 7 years later. engine completely quit on me. had routine maintenance including oil changes every 5000 miles by dealer.. Never took my car anywhere else for maintenance other than tire shop for new tires. No check engine light never or warning lights to let me know something was wrong with vehicle. just quit on me . had it diagnosed and from report - something malfunctioned inside of engine. I always thought Toyota cars would at least reach 200,000 miles OR AT LEAST 150,000. before any major problems. Never will purchase a Toyota - YOU HAVE LET ME DOWN. I Know am venting. but I always wanted a dependable car and this is not the car i will ever consider dependable.

Transmission defect?
I had a 2000 Corolla for the last 15 years and not one problem. I got this 2011 XLE with a V6, and it has been excellent for about a year. I bought it used with 160000 miles on it. But today the transmission started making an intermittent slipping noise. You can see the RPM go up and you can also hear something that sounds like leather spinning against metal, like a belt sliding up against something. This is a huge disappointment for a Toyota. I didn't spend $9, 500 for a used car to have to spend $3, 000 for a transmission. I don't know what I'm going to do but I'm going to have to have it looked at I suppose. Research is now showing it is a problem and Toyota is of course not acknowledging anything. The stereo and the V6 acceleration has been excellent. The ride is so so. With new tires I still feel just about every bump in the road when I'm going slowly. Short version is this transmission thing is scary because Transmissions are the nightmare item to try to fix. Unemployed and in school, unbelievable.

new lease
I leased a Toyota XLE after driving a Honda Accord for 3 years. After a month of driving it I am still impressed. It is peppy and handles great on the freeway. Fun to drive and comfortable.
Camry XLE 2011
Test drove several competitor vehicles but landed on Camry (XLE) for its smoother ride, better comfort and quieter cabin. Other cars tested - Accord, Optima, Sonata, Fusion and Altima. Accord and Fusion lacked pep and road and engine noise were pronounced. Optima - although a nice car - seemed to fall short on interior quality and lacked track record for quality. Sonata is a good value but found driver seat lacked thigh support, thus was unable to get comfortable while driving. Altima was initially my first choice, but passengers found front passenger and rear seats uncomfortable. If you are looking for a car that has a quieter cabin, smoother ride and comfortable seats, check out the Camry.
