See when the paint is shiny and perfect and there’s no damage, I really admire these cars (and their owners that took good care of them), and is probably my favourite Camry generation design wise, bar the newest one. Most of them though look like this now, and I never park next to them bc clearly the car got bashed up bc the driver doesn’t give a shit.

Great work! I just inherited a 97 2.2 4cyl beast from my mum (in her 70’s). It had been dead on her driveway for years. Picture cobwebs, leaves, dirt and more hits than Elvis - possibly the 2nd worst camry in Oz. I was asked to remove the car… of which I threw in a battery and fuel and to my surprise it started first go. I drove it 1250km home and have clocked up another 6000km over the last 4mths… and like you am in shock at its smooth ride, acceptable performance and space. Due to it keeness to keep going it has received a lavish coating of matt black paint from a can, has its windows tinted and has an upgraded headunit with wireless apple carplay. Im not sure if its love… but its bloody good fun! Keep up the great work. Looking forward to seeing how your camry progresses.

I have a 2000 model Conquest. In showroom condition. This car is bulletproof. It has 324,576 kays on the clock. No oil leaks, no coolant leaks no power steering leaks, heck, no leaks. This still has the original steering joints. Yes, it has had struts changed after 170,000 and they are still going strong. The Timing belt changed 3 times. New engine and auto mounts after 296,000 and 2 new radiators. Oil and filter replacement every 5,000. Auto every 25,000. Suspension bushes front only at 296,000. new fuel pump and that's it. This car is unstoppable and if any car is treated correctly serviced on time and no longer than 6 months or 5, 000 km whichever comes first, is carried out, then a car will last as long as you treat it well and tuck it in at night. I've never read stories before bed to it, but hay, who knows, it may help. Oh and white is the only colour to get in any car. You can keep it looking great. Never garaged but every 6 months I would give it a coat of mother's synthetic wax. The secret is to every morning give it a quick wipe down with a chamois and the paint will stay like glass. I haven't used wash on it for sometimes 9-10 months at a time.

Both of the blokes take them on dirt road and mega 400-500km trips relatively often and neither of them have had any issues. The V6's are surprisingly good on fuel with the manual as well, all you've gotta worry about is the rego. If you need a really cheap really reliable car its hard to pass these up.

Mine, 01 5 spd 4 banger wagon, just replaced the radiator today, it looks original, and a relatively straight forward job. A month ago, finished replacing the head gasket, and just before i also did the timing belt, water pump, coolent flush, cam crank and oil pump shaft seals, oil seal... cars only done 436k ks and still got a lot of life left in her. My interior is a lot cleaner than that one too. Definitely worth the effort and resonably straight forward to do for your car enthusiast from many youtube video tutorials out there.

My first ''car'' (wasnt really mine) was a 1998 Vienta VXI. Turns out they do leak oil a lot after a while. It had 5 missmatching tires somehow, all different brands, including the spare. The roof was stuck on with thumbtacks, my Nonno called it the Stary Night roof like the rolls royce. It was a solid car to drive, had decent power. I stupidly decided to put coils in it, losing the luxury worn out suspension that you could bounce like a basketball. The engine bay was mint, the fuel door had to be opened with your fingers because it broke. Still got it alongside my 97 Celica. The late 90s camrys were hands down the best car to ever be made.

That's interesting... In the USA, it seems this 'title' was given to the Nissan Altima (Teana/Cefiro) instead; it does everything, goes everywhere, and practically any funny road incident(s) usually itll involve an Altima...

My 86 year old dad had one exactly like this and dented every single panel from smashing cars in every car park he visited. He replaced it with a newer Camry and now that is dented on every panel as well

Mine was the 4 cylinder. Door cards falling off, most interior lighting had failed and the aircon couldn't stop blowing in air from the outside. It finally died on James Ruse drive at 3am after having done 400,000 kilometres

I bought one of these 4 years ago for 3000 bucks and only had 132000 kilometres on it , it's a entry stock as a rock base model with a 2.2 litre 4 cylinder engine, easy to maintain, very basic, if I need any spare parts for it , here in Adelaide we have the privilege to go to U Pull It which is a self serve wrecking yard , it's all good.

Interesting video. I was wondering if you could look at the Toyota Corolla fielder hybrid. There’s not many wagons around these days. They seem like good value.

what is nice about these old cars is it is very easy to add a double din Chinese head unit that has wireless CarPlay and android auto, and all the other touch screen stuff that makes most of the visible tech advances of the last 20 years. and you can do it yourself. Just get a DIN converter car harness for the year/model online, pull out the old one and bolt in the new one...

I have a 91 Camry and it’s a beast. Just clicked over 173 thousand km. Picked it up for $500. It’s realtivly silent besides a werid noise coming from the rear.

still have my 1997 Camry for 10 years, 296kms, looks pretty much like this one in the video. Only thing its ever need was spark plugs and the usual changes (tires, brakes etc) never had a engine fault to this day. car just doesn't die.

I had the earlier SV20 model with the 2.0 litre twin cam engine and auto gear box. In 350k kms the only major parts that needed replacement were the drive shafts (CVs got a little noisy) and struts and shocks. Just had normal servicing and a wash and clean every 6 months or so. Would have kept it longer but needed a bigger car for growing family. Hard to kill these Camrys.

I have a 1996 Toyota Vienta XV10 and it is an *absolute dream to drive.* 212000 km on the odometer and the previous owner took proportional care of it. 3.0L V6 gets me anywhere I want to go and don't see it letting me down anytime soon! 💪
