is this a good buy? the roach camry? i need a car because mom totaled the ford focus 2012.
>>
>>28927945
yes it's fine
it has already done 700k miles, what's another 50k
>>
>>28927945
No. Buy a Maserati. Super reliable cars, them. Their longevity is truly astonishing.
>>
>>28927949
Seconding this
Or get a jaguar, the cheap ones are good
>>
>>28927945
this generation of camry was the most overbuilt. get it. great runabout
>>
>>28928389
I windowed the block in one of these because these pieces of shit do like 5k rpm down the highway.
>>
>>28928399
which engine? i beat the piss out of the 3vzfe in mine and it never skipped a beat
would be very surprised if you killed a 5sfe, those engines ran forever
>>
>>28928407
It was a 4 banger so probably the 5sfe. I've also been left stranded by a 5VZ-FE so maybe I just have some perma bad luck with Toyota.
>>
>>28927945
>695,475 miles
if you have to ask, do not purchase this car
>>
>>28928412
geez, two of their engines that are known for being durable...toyota needs to hire you for their stress testing, especially now
>>28928413
low mileage would probably be worse; you don't get 600,000 miles without regular maintenance
>>
>>28927945
If thay thing runs fine and isn't smoking, I would unironically buy that as an experiment, you're literally losing $2000, you drive the motherfucker for a year you've won at life lol
>>
>>28928432
>you don't get 600,000 miles without regular maintenance
So true, same with age, a 10 year old car with minimal maintenance and original everything scares me because the maintenance bomb goes off and you need struts, control arms, the bitch is seeping oil, you name it, it's needed, but a 20+ year old car, or one with high miles needs maintenance to keep itself going, be happy you're paying a low price for a car that's had everything done.
>>
>>28927945
It looks very basketball american used
>>
Buy it so you can be the fag that goes *siiiiip* yup I done put 700k miles on this camry and all I did was change the oil. Then everyone will think you're master at car, for only $1994
>>
>>28927949
>>28927970
Land and Range Rover's are where its at. Super tough and run for ages
>>
>>28928432
true but this is the twilight zone where weird shit goes wrong you wont find help for when you google it, not good first car material
>>
>>28928709
>not good first car material
It's a trannyverse 4 cylinder Toyota anon, you csnt get any more regular and maintainable than that, if this were like an SW20 thay shops are leery about touching then yeah, it's not first car material, but anyone will be glad to work on your based XV10 Camry with shitloads of miles on it.
>>
>>28927945
>Owners: 1
>Miles: 700k
I'd buy it without hesitation. Some dude bought it and drove it stubbornly until he died.
>>
>>28927945
How poor are you and your mom, exactly?
>>
>>28928806
There is no mom. It's a shill thread about the mileage of this over driven toyota.
>>
Does any one drive these how do you make the steering wheel stop shaking. Do u need oem only toyota mounts. Please help.
>>
>>28929126
exactly when does it shake?
>>
>>28929348
at a stop in D or R and slight foot off pedal idle, put in park its fine. once moving though it doesnt shake anymore. trans is auto.
>>
>>28929476
check motor mounts
>>
>>28929476
oh and yes get the oem ones. aftermarkets will of coursr be cheaper but probably won't last as long, and this job probably isn't something you wanna do often.
