2013 Camry - 2 days old

2013 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 6A)

I traded a 2005 Camry LE for the new 2013 Camry LE. Performance is about the same with the 4 cyl. automatic. Very responsive and I expect that the highway mileage should be about the same as experienced with the 2005, around 35 mpg. The seats are more comfortable than the 2005 - a major improvement. One very serious shortcoming is that there is NO way to lock the trunk. The valet key allows you to lock the glove compartment, but if you are traveling and have valuables in the trunk there is no way to protect them from theft if you leave the car in a valet parking lot, service provider or anywhere where the vehicle will be left in someone else's care. I consider this a serious oversight.

My 3rd Camry

2013 Toyota Camry SE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 6A)

I bought my car a month ago & so far I am LOVING it! This is my 1st SE Model & I really like the style/handling better than the LE model. It's roomy enough for hubby, kids & myself. Very comfortable for long road trips. I love the interior. My legs don't feel crammed. Radio display is nice. My car didn't come with Entunes or navigation but I always use my cell phone for navigation & other apps. The 6 speakers sound great, could be a bit better for a 2013 but I'm satisfied. The bluetooth is awesome... loud & clear. I also like how the car display shows you your average speed, mpg & how many more miles you can drive with the gas you have in tank. The trunk is spacious. Great car,great deal!

Worst Car I have ever owned-Cheaply made

This is my third Camry and will be my last. The heat on this car takes 20 minutes to warm up, By the time it does I am at work. I was told this is standard for this car. The car has the WORST pickup ever. I can't even accelerate quickly if I need to get out of the way. I was told this is due to the econo button that cannot be shut off. It's cheaply made the fabric seats stain easily and when trying to clean water marks are left behind. Toyota refused to fix any of my problems. Today I went to the drive through and all my windows were frozen stuck, Between the lack of heat and no pick up and now the window problem I feel like I am driving around in a 15 year old car.

I was unable to edit my original review from 2013 so I'm adding a separate one for an update. I've had the car for almost 5 years now with 107,000 km or 66,500 miles on it. The car is still a pleasure to drive, I enjoy getting behind the wheel every single time. Mind you this is not a performance sedan but SE V6 is a great compromise between fun and practicality. I've had absolutely zero mechanical, electrical or any other problems. I've only been following a maintenance schedule - oil and cabin filters, one transmission flush, just recently changed the rotors and pads and I'm on my second set of tires. I'm averaging between 21 to 24 mpg in mostly city driving; the best I've had was 29 mpg on a highway trip. Few minor annoyances are: touchscreen/navigation/entertainment is a bit slow, the cost of a navigation update is ridiculously high, in Canada anyway, and finally the voice recognition is not great, I have to keep repeating the destination or whatever it is I want to do. The car is very quiet on highways, with good tires; winter tires are louder but that's expected. Handling in snow is great with winter tires on (I'm in Ontario, Canada). Absolutely one of the best purchases I've ever made, can't recommend this car enough.
