I wonder why they didnt do a long video about the 1993 toyota pickup like this. Makes me think this generation of the camry was more superior and possibly even built better then ALL other generations of camrys.
I have a 96 2.2. I am the second owner. What a sweet ride. Only 511,000 miles and it still runs and drives excellent. I maintain it well obviously, bu what a well engineered vehicle!! Had an 89 Camry 2.2, 5 speed before that and sold it to the neighbor for his son. It only 289,000 miles and still ran great. Pride in engineering. We could sure use some lessons here in the USA. Both Camry's got about 30 mpg religiously also. Cold Air, excellent heat, and great in snow. There are still tons of this generation on the road!!! Toyota rules!!
Damn. That's amazing. I have a 1996 V6 Camry that just hit 150k KM and it is amazing. I just put 18 inch rims on it and a cold air intake and it's easily my favorite car I've owned now.
My 92 le has a 6cyl with only 71k orig japanese only for California marketed got it from orig owner and after 32 years it runs like a scalded car and as smooth as my old 74 caddy most reliable car ever made..I wouldn't trade a newer Toyota for mine
These old 1990s Camries remind me of my grandparents. They owned a 1995 and 1997 Camry for a super long time until pretty recently. Those cars are powerhouses. Truly something worth admiring
I took this exact car for a test drive recently. Oh, how comfortable and nice it was.... Much cooler than newer cars. Strangely more comfortable than newer cars. Softer and nicer. I wish I could have bought the car on the spot.
I had a 4cyl one in the nice grey color shown in the thumbnail with a pink/reddish interior, was really good but someone t-boned my front-left wheel deep in the wheel-well (it had only 92000km, such a shame)... Bought a V6 in the bluish/green and tan interior and the V6 feels really modern and powerful, going on 260000km ! These cars are THE ABSOLUTE REASON why Toyota became known as the most reliable car brand overall. I would buy a 3rd one when the green one dies but it seems supply has been depleted in my area (none of them for sale anywhere in Québec) so I'm gonna love my green one till death does us part..
@@lightdr6 I'm still loving my green 96' ! But there IS a 96' in the same grey color I used to have with around 140000 miles which is the lowest I have ever seen on one of these !
In 1999, I bought a 3 year old 1996 Camry Wagon that came out of the south with the 4 cylinder engine . White, beige interior, black roof rack, gorgeous and with the gold badges all around. Even found two extra CAMRY gold badges and stuck them mid line on the front doors near the hinges. Looks original And yes, they are GOLD PLATED! $32 on Ebay. I have been driving it ever since and still own it down here in Florida. Has never seen snow, salt, etc. and is solid as a rock. In the same condition as this video! I did add a great Kenwood Bluetooth Radio just to keep up with the times! Then....IT happened after 258,000 miles (my goal when I bought it was to rack up enough miles to get me to the moon...about 243,000 miles). Just changed the oil and was coming back home when it started to rock and roll. Got it home only to have to tow it to a great Toyota repair shop I found near me. Failed the engine block test. Bummer. Opened the top of the engine to do the repairs and was told by the mechanic because of excessive wear he found in spite of the care it has received over the past 25 years, that it was better to find a new engine or a rebuilt one. Scoured the entire US and found nothing but high mileage drivers that had more miles than mine. And then, I hit pay dirt. A guy in Miami (I am from the Tampa/Clearwater area) was selling his 95 year old dad's 1996 Camry COUPE (complete with sunroof) with only 67,000 miles on it. Since it was the only option at the time, we bought the entire car, drove down to Miami with a flat bed U Haul behind our Sequoia(!) and got it home. The car was a MESS having sat unused for a long time, quite dirty in the engine bay, and according to the shop, some kind of black OOZE was found in the transmission pan. But the engine sounded fine (seller said he has all the service records from his dad who only drove it within a 5 miles radius from his home)...but hell, only 67,000, one owner miles. Next goal is to get it to 500,000 miles. Total cost of the repairs, $5700.00 and that includes the purchase of the car ($2300). But we were able to pull about $4000 worth of engine components off of it so it turned out to be a great deal. Try to buy a decent car for THAT little. And I should tell you not a week goes buy when someone will ask to buy my Camry. Either at parking lots, on the road, or one guy who drove right into my driveway as I was detailing the car. I kid you not. Now here is the best news of all. My shop mechanic "dialed' in the donor engine to such an extent (far better than factory), that on two 100 miles MPG runs just to see how the engine performed, I went from around 20 MPG with my older engine (2.2L) to 31.77 MPG! Incredible increase. I also added a treatment of Auto-RX to the oil to clean out any sludge, deposits, etc. After driving around a bit more, drained the oil and out came much darker, but not sludgey oil. New oil change with the following cocktail: 3 quarts of Mobil 1 High Mileage Full Synthetic, one quart Marvel Mystery Oil and one pint of BestLine Nano Technology Diamond Oil treatment. The engine now has the proper "whine" as it should and is so smooth and quiet, even my shop was amazed at how well it performed. So, fellow GEEKSTERS, take heart. You now own something that others always wanted. Like getting to date that prom queen back in high school. They call that KARMA. Enjoy. Dr. Z (Lou)
@@tomsmith2361 HI there: The story is about to get even better. Although the interior is showroom MINT, I am going to gild the lilly with a new leather interior with perforated seat centers and contrasting stitching by Road-Wire. Should be an interesting look since the Camry did have that as a option on their XLE model. Mine is the LE. Should be done in a few weeks by a local auto style company here. The beat goes ON!!! Dr. Z
J have toyota camry1992 2.2 with bad automatic transmition .J want to replace automatic transmition with 5 speed manual. Somebody have a link with manual or company who sale manual 5 speed transmition
That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Dear Jesus please forgive me for all my sins I believe that you died on for me on the cross and rose from the dead 3 days later
2021 and my 1993 camry executive is still going... Yes its boring but when was the last time a car lasted this long with just basic maintenance? My wallet loves this!
Toyota Canada? For a car in 1991, this was very good stuff. Toyota had already designed this before the also high quality Gen 4 1990 Accord had been revealed in 1989 and had gotten to work in 1986.

I always loved this generation of Camry, the design is still so beautiful even 30 years after it was first built.

I got a 1992 xle with the v6 for free from a friend a few months ago with 368,000 miles. I just wish it was the wagon
Got the lexus version of this camry, the best gen Camry, in manual and V6.
Im glad to have one, a 1995 toyota camry wagon, same shade of green as you see in the video.
I have one. One of my favorite cars out of my entire fleet
I will be buried in my 92 camry. Thousands of years from now archaeologists will find me and itll still run.

The Corollas is the small camry
Other car companies would buy these and tear them down to see what made them so good
What’s crazy is this generation Camry is the most luxurious and refined because almost all of the engineering principles were copied from the LS400.
Yes the X L E v 6 1992-1996. The 1997-2006 XLE V6 are my favorite for a special edition.
@@zivaldez4075 what’s the special reason?
I have a 93 xle and I seen a 93 ls400 way more luxurious
My trunk lid won't stay up!
All 90s Toyota’s are the best cars ever made
I got a 1994 XLE v6 super white! 212k miles and not a scratch! All grey leather interior! Drives like a dream!
Congratulations brother, do you still have it?
@@lightdr6 yes! 214k miles now! Original Tranny and engine. 1MZ-FE
@@GrungeVeins awesome bro, i just got one, and it will be my first car, i am very happy, i plan to have it at 100 in less than a year
@@lightdr6 they will teach you anything you have questions on!!
@@GrungeVeins I will write again when I have news
Mine’s still running
This class of automobile. Back in the days when the word AUTOMOBILE was even still in use.
That’s my first car after high school lol it had 150 k miles on it
They spent a stupid amount of money over-engineering this car to the point where Toyota almost regreted it.
Good for us tho!
Is there a way to find this format of video for the fourth generation Camry?

The narrator's voice is quite soothing.
1990s Camrys are still on the roads of New Jersey. Such a handsome, reliable car.
Easily the best car of the 90's. I still see dozens of this generation of Camry on the road every week here in Michigan.

@@DamienPaceGaming my 92 2.2L Camry has 267,171 miles so far.
My family had one the 2001 LE V6 and the 2004 XLE V6 .
Around the same year, Hyundai Sonata was also marketed in Canada to compete with the Camry.
