Selling a 22 year old 2002 Toyota Camry

[@speedy4829]

Memories. I had almost the exact same Camry 20 years ago. Indestructible, reliable and comfortable. Hope the new owner appreciates the incredible value they are getting. A little bit of maintenance will go a long way.

[@kevs2good133]

My dealer had a 2002 CRV with like 55k miles a few months ago and I know instantly it would be the hottest thing being inquired at our BDC department. It sold super quick

[@karandeepkaurr]

How much did it sell for?

[@stevenlapidus5939]

You should have no problems finding someone to purchase such an old Camry. They just keep on running.

[@dayofdave]

Agreed!

[@lorieandpatrickdavies7483]

Dave, if I was you, I would ditch the Bolt, and keep the Camry. That generation of Camry are nearly perfect cars, and last almost forever (except when exposed to salt). Give your parents a fair price (I think $6K is fair), and keep it!!!!

[@gmv0553]

Ice over electric? No way!!!

[@lorieandpatrickdavies7483]

@@gmv0553 You can buy an awful lot of gas when you have no car payments. EV isn't for everyone, and in fact can be absolutely the wrong choice for a lot of people, who buy into hype and advertising, and don't really have a good, long look at the drawbacks of EV. I would rather have no car payment, myself. Nothing at all wrong with a cheap, reliable, fully paid for ICE vehicle.

[@dayofdave]

My Bolt is paid for and I am very fortunate to charge at work.. Would never get rid of it.

I cannot imagine why anyone would want a NEW Turd-ota, much less a twenty year old one! I had TWO of them and they were garbage!

[@TheRealSuperJ]

That thing is a cream puff! I used to carpool with a guy who had that generation Camry and the back seat had limo like legroom. Such a nice car.

[@Clay_333]

Change the PCV valve. It is super cheap, easy to do, and can save the engine from completely filling with sludge. Unfortunately I am speaking from experience. My wife had one just like it and the oil pressure light came on and it started running rough. She took it to a mechanic and was told that it was completely full of sludge and needed a new motor. I ended up stripping down the head and dropped the oil pan and got everything I could out, but it never ran right again. We bought it from a used car lot in my area that I should have recognized was quite shady. Took it for a pre-purchase inspection and everything passed. Unfortunately vehicle has no way to check the oil pressure until it is low and the light comes on and somehow oil pressure was not something they check in the pre-purchase inspection. I was young, dumb, and broke and allowed myself to get screwed. All of that was over a $12 PCV valve that was clogged. We ended up selling it for less than half what we paid less than a year later and let the buyer know about the issues we had.

[@Jimmy_Boy]

You should post a video about selling it.

[@RyanDoonan]

We have an 2010 Toyota Avalon limited with 113k miles almost 114k wish we got a Toyota/lexus in the first place definitely best vehicles and that 02 Camry is in wonderful condition love that Dave

[@richarddeason1845]

My guess Asking $8000 maybe asking a lot But gives room to lower down The car looks great plus low miles should get customers

[@eddieslittlestack7919]

Those headlights came out very well, I'm quite surprised.

[@Papolucho702]

Just a good detailing spray to clean the engine up. It looks pristine. Cleaning the hoses up really can lengthen the life of the rubber. I live in Las Vegas so I did the engine cleaning with a rag and a detailing spray and the hoses still felt and looked brand new. Desert kills rubber! Yeah east coast wouldn’t kill them as quick but keeping that grime off regularly really does help.

[@dayofdave]

I will probably end up doing and engine cleaning.. also may try to get some of the stains out of the interior carpets

[@dave1956]

Back when I was a young man, you never saw a 22 year old vehicle. In the 70’s and 80’s you were lucky to get half that amount of time. I drove a 2000 Camry for 12 years. The person who I sold it to drove it for another 8 years before her daughter traded it for a death trap Bettle convertible because it was “cute”!

[@imSterling]

It's a nice blue car.

[@southernfarmtech]

Dave if I had been the buyer of that car I would have wanted those factory mats, worn or not. Hope you threw them in the trunk and not in the trash! When a car gets to this age, having all the books, all the keys, OEM mats, etc are super special. I would have had a super hard time parting with that Camry if it were mine because they are just so well made. I think 6k is a fair asking price, and if I needed a car I would take that ten times over virtually anything new today.

[@deepthinker999]

Prediction: This car will sell for more than 6K. Multiple buyers will bid the price up.

The old Toyota’s were great. I just rented a 2023 Corolla and was disappointed in how cheap it was made.

[@scrapgamingx1942]

My family rented a higher trim 21 Rav4 the quality was amazing the road noise was absurd but also it had cheap tires so understandable there a business they cant afford to spend alot of money on tires but the quality of it was pretty good if you rented a like base corolla it might just be that often companies have "fleet" versions of their cars that are intended for businesses

I had 1998 Camry it’s been with the family for 20 years bought since new it’s had about 133k miles on odometer. Its was very reliable but unfortunately we trade in 4 years ago for 2020 Prius Prime til this day I missed that car. I’m thinking about getting next daily my landlord sister in law is selling her 2009 Lexus ES350 with 170k miles on odometer for $5k. 🤷🏻‍♂️

But like always great video’s 👍🏻🇺🇸💯

[@dayofdave]

A couple assumptions in your comment 🤔 The Camry will be worth what someone is willing to pay for it. There are comps online with double the mileage for $4,000 to $5,000. How much rust is under a car that was only on the road for an average of 4,000 miles per year? Appreciate your comments 👍
