I have over 130,000 miles on mine and I don't want to part with it. Yes, mine is 13 years old and runs like a top. Pros are the reliability, the smooth V-6 on the highway, the visibility from the cabin, the ride on Primacy V-rated rubber, the mpg, the automatic a/c, the huge trunk, the cupholders, the JBL stereo -- the head unit of which I replaced with an Alpine touch screen, but it plays through the JBL amps and speakers and sounds perfect. (The audio upgrade added a hands-free phone and an iPod jack, along with a back-up camera) Cons are the slab-sided styling, the electric window only being auto up/down on the driver's side, no memory seats, hmmm, that's about it. Overall, the best beater back and forth to work car you could ever hope for. Same V-6 drivetrain as the 03 Lexus, but smaller body so it moves! UPDATE. Now I have 142,000 miles on it and it's still good, except the mechanic told me the engine mounts are starting to go. I plan to buy a new 2018 Camry XLE V-6 when they're available, and keep my old one for a placeholder on the street. 15 years out of a car -- not bad.

Camry XLE better than Avalon or Lexus

Tested Avalon XLS and Lexus ES300. Even the salesman agreed the Camry is a much better buy. Paid less than TMV and then got the $1,000 rebate and Toyoguard at same price. Toyoguard is not a good product, but Southeast Toyota does it to upper end cars as they receive them. Avalon with almost comparable equipment was $4,300 more from same dealer and Lexus was $3,000 more with older model sound system. At 3,500 miles, it's a great car, well designed and appointed. Not sure what good RDS radio is in Southeastern US though.
The best family car anyone can buy

The camry is truly the best family sedan anyone can buy, becuase it has great etractive design and it is very comfortable on road or highway. And toyota's reliability is outstanding. Sorry honda but your accord just did not get my vote on family sedan. J.D power and associates just named toyota and lexus the best name brands of any car manufacturer. In my eyes and other people the camry beats the accord again.
