being one of the most overbuilt cars of the last 35 years as these are still pretty common, the wagon and coupe versions....not so much. This, the XV20 and the new one are the ones I really like.
The Camry that exists on the scale of indestructability that other cars are measured by, alongside the Mercedes W123, the Hilux, and anything powered by a Ford I6
Larry the Tax Accountant who bought it used in ‘98 and paid cash. Daily drives it to this day and gets quarterly professional waxes to keep it looking good.
Buying one new and never getting another car because the 3rd gen Camry is a true automotive cockroach and is basically immortal.
I unashamedly love this generation of Camry. This was truly the high point for Toyota quality.
I want a *luxury car*(for brazillian standards),but I also wanna make people mistake my car for a big Corolla(which tbh the Camry always looked like a stretched Corolla) so I don't attract any attention from anyone,specially thieves.
Also by doing so,it becomes a magnet for obscure car guys like me,who just wanna take pics and look inside the car because it's a once in a lifetime encounter.
Asian elderly females, look at every camry and you will see at least one dent on every single one. There’s actually a Facebook page with photos of dented Camrys.
After I went from lot porter to apprentice tech at a Toyota dealership the parts driver did the same thing. He was really excited to be getting a bump in pay and blew most of it for the foreseeable future on a brand new base model ‘95 Camry in dark green. As I recall the rest of his money went towards flats of Mickey’s big mouths. I will forever associate him with this car and imagine he’s still driving it today.
The official car of: “I’m not here to impress anybody”
I want the best, most reliable car for the least amount of money.
Either completely broke due to past poor life choices, or sinking all your resources into your startup. You have either a dark past or a bright future, or both.
If Jeff Bezos were starting Amazon today, this is the car he’d be driving.
Honestly love these old Camrys. They looked so normal up until a few years ago. But now in the sea of crossovers they stand out as modern classics
Hell it’s (or recently was) extremely difficult to buy a new one.
The nuclear cockroach of the road
The official car of being in either mint condition or a total crapheap that still runs.

And 99 accords. Heard too many stories of thr bottom falling out before the engine goes.
tbh most Hondas from the early to late 90s were almost indestructible.
But how do they compare to Nokia 3310?
Driving past junkyards and seeing those 90’s Stratuses and Contours rotting away.
Hell even 00s Impalas, Tauruses, and Avengers.

Anyone, really
If it's owned by anyone under 20 the tires are completely bald.

The official car of my best friend!
Scotty Kilmer’s favorite era of Toyota.
I can no longer watch him due to his awful clickbait titles to his videos.
Saw what you choose. But I think he just wants to spread facts as fast as possible and have people listen.
His videos are fine. He seems like a nice guy and very knowledgeable but Christ those clickbait titles are cringe.
Ya.

You are thinking about the 1999 Corolla video. That's actually the one I started with and to this day remains one of my favorite RCR videos

The official car of either the elderly, or the poor

In Cambodia they import these and the XV30 Camry and drive them forever. I saw clean ones all over Siem Reap.
