Good car, great value
Original: The title says it all - this car is an excellent value. It rides well, handles decently, is comfortable, has a few cool features, is sturdily constructed, gets acceptable fuel economy (particularly considering the performance), and is roomy. It does all of the important things well or well enough, with no major flaws and zero irritants. Plus, in SE V-6 trim, the engine supplies a few thrills and the car handles/steers well enough to keep up when you want to do more than commute. Bottomline, it ain't a sports sedan, and it ain't a luxury car, either. But for what the SE V-6 is and for what Toyota charges for it, it really is the best thing out there. 50k miles: Still going strong! Nary a glitch, and it drives just the same as the day I bought it. Most of what I said above remains true. Too bad the world has changed around the 2013 Camry: what I rationalized above as a "good value" today wouldn't pass muster as such, even for the $24k I paid for it in 2013. Today, any number of $24k vehicles in the compact class have nicer interiors, better technology, and are equally refined and only a touch smaller. Yeah, none of them are as powerful, but they all get better fuel economy, and most still have enough power to get out of their own way. Today, it'd be a no brainer: skip the Camry for a 3, Golf, or Civic.

The best of the old and sprinkle in the new
The Toyota way really shines above all not in just the quality of manufacturing for the Toyota Camry , but the end user experience is always a good time. The Camry is so easy to maneuver and the cost of ownership is absurdly low and everything within the vehicle is just so reliable.

Overall the best value in its segment
Over 3,000km (1,875mi) so far and very happy with my choice. Not a perfect car but it does everything well for its segment at a great price. Tighter handling, better interior materials and dashboard design would be nice but this is a mid-sized family sedan for value minded customers, not BMW 5 series and Toyota did a good job with this generation. I haven't had popping roof noise, AC odor and rattling dashboard issues that some drivers complained about. V6 has a very generous amount of power and most people would be perfectly fine with I4. Transmission shifts smoothly. Cabin is very quiet on Michelin tires. Ride comfort is great. I highly recommend the SE trim.
CAMRY HAS SLIPPED
Our 2013 does not measure up to our 2002. It's noisy, has uncomfortable seats, poor visibility, glare from dash reflects on windshield, poor audio, and rocks side to side with minor road undulations. We also had an '87 which we loved, but the 2013 has seriously slipped.

Hope it Lasts
First Camry purchase. Not impressed with the cheap carpet in the SE (shines like cardboard after the first vacuum) the seat material is sub-par as well. Gas mileage is 23.8 MPG. I bought the car at a discount like so many other posters have mentioned. I won't complain about the price. For a 4 cyl, it does have the ability to accelerate well. I wish I was getting the mileage many other folks are reporting and I'd overlook the cheap interior. I live on a 50 MPH road and the car rarely sees a traffic light. Buyer beware on the mileage and interior. Otherwise it is a nice car. I'm hoping it lasts as long as people say they do.
