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.
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
My Grandmother just gave me one of these mint grocery grabbers, we repainted it and tuned it up. Only ever went to church/the market and back. I love this car. Runs like it did in 95.
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.

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
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!
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.
This car when well-loaded and with the 1MZ V6 was like a baby LS400 when it came out. Toyota kept refining it for the next two years until it became what was possibly the most reliable sedan ever built. By '94 it had goodies few (or no) other cars in its class at the time had like platinum plugs, 4 wheel ABS, dual airbags, even had OBD2 two years early. The all aluminum 1MZ-FE put out 188HP and this engine would remain in production until 2014. It was the V6 of choice for the Toyota Camry until 2006.
I like the one piece door on these Camrys. Very rare. All cars now use two piece doors with spot welds at the ends of the window frame. Toyota was really pushing for top refinement starting with the Lexus LS in 1989 and trickling its way down to the ES and Camry. Now, car companies are looking for every place to cut corners to save on costs. The biggest concern when my parents bought one in 1996 is the price. Even though it had lots of refinement especially in the suspension, my parents were seriously considering the equivalent Accord for $1000 less. The Toyota dealer ended up negotiating a deal with us right at closing time.
Early 90s were the time when Toyota was having loads of money thanks to a short-lived economic miracle in Japan from mid-80s until 1994. Toyota was producing family cars with premium-level refinements but with affordable prices, which proved to be a double-edged sword advantage: ppl were extremely satisfied with the cars' sturdiness and bcz of that, they end up not wanting to buy new Toyota models for years to come even when their spare parts are already scarce and rarely available these days. That's why current Toyotas don't match the old ones in longevity, bcz Toyota doesn't want to lose money from not being able to sell more brand-new cars.
My father bought a 1996 Camry 4 cylinder new and really enjoyed it. I keep her running smoothly out of nice memories and my enjoyment of this fine machine 😊. 126k on the clock as of Spring 2022👍.
Toyota in the late 1980's and going through the 90's almost seemed to adopt the old Mercedes Benz philosophy of telling the engineers to build it how they'd want a car made. (Within reason) They'll let the accountants figure out how to pay for it later. Prices did jump, but not by outrageous amounts. It helped that Toyota had already developed a reputation for quality and people figured the extra was worth it.
@KingZ LEGIT my very FAVORITE Toyota. I’ve got a Camry story for you Drove one for a racing school years ago as a kid, just like yours, same year same transmission. I remember getting into it, being amazed how clean everything was, I was 11 and I expected the car to be like a well maintained 14 year old car. I was very surprised to find that it was manual with crank windows. I had never seen a Camry with crank windows before at the time. Then getting on the racetrack with the instructor (this is British Columbia, it was raining), it did exceptionally well, super fun learning how to row that tall distinctive shifter and use the light clutch that still worked like new. Finally I pulled it in and parked it under the tree between an approximately 20 by 10 feet space between a greenhouse and a racing car storage garage, right next to an Emerald green dodge neon I had driven earlier (it was auto). Out of all the racing school cars there, I loved that Camry more than absolutely ANY other car I’ve ever been it before. Still to this day 4 years later soon as of 3 weeks from now. When I got home from the racing school I was so excited I reasearched about that car as much as I possibly could. I missed lots of schoolwork just watching Camry videos. But the story doesn’t end here, believe it or not. It was a year ago, I emailed the racetrack about if I could buy it and if they still had it, and they said they did and it didn’t run anymore. A month later, I went down to look at it, and unfortunately a NUMBER had happened to it in 3 years since me last seeing it. That previously beautiful silver taupe metallic paint had all peeled away from our giant Canadian heatwave, and the seats were super faded, but amazingly enough, the dashboard was absolutely perfect. Like no scratch no dust or crack perfection. It was unbelievable. But I must have spend 10 minutes rowing through that gear shifter with my parents telling me it’s too rough shape let’s leave. Water had gotten in the fuse box, and It died sitting in the racetrack infield with 280585 KM and 30 years of age. (yes I remember the exact figure that’s how much I loved it), but the interior felt modern enough to be 2005. Now amazingly enough I have a 1986 5 speed manual Camry that I bought 2 months ago with my own money and I’m just so excited. Turning 16 in the summer and can’t wait to get out there driving. Super fun times. I know this is probably the longest ridiculous story you’ve been told off of RUclips, but I figured I would, for the people like me that love these cars. Whenever I see one rolling down the road, I crane my neck.
Just bought a '93 LE/V-6 in Aug. 2018 ... now 270,000 km.... a great car I think. I would prefer a stiffer suspension (being used to sports cars ... just sold my S2000 and had a Miata before that). The handling surprised me ... a bit soft but it rotates very nicely in autoxes ... I was amazed. Good car.
@@osmosis3182 Apart from a bit of oil leaks and rust it got a new transmission (not used...was the last one in the warehouse so got it it for half price) but that ended up being a misdiagnosed ECU fault. I've got 2008 Camry now too so the old ones a learner car for my wife
The silence of operation was unparalleled at the time. A lack of four cyl power and numb handling was unfortunately also a drawback but you can’t have everything. It was better than benz quality and the same was true of the much more Japan-centric Previa.
The exterior is still beautiful in 2019. And I feel that 1992 Camry is bigger than 2019 Camry , although it's actually smaller. But the 1992 interior is out of date.
The interior space got smaller due to new safety requirements for side collision. The 1992 Camry doesn’t have side airbags and curtain airbags and the pillars and roof rails got thicker over the years.
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 !
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
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.
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.
Beautiful car and good built. Looks nice alot nice then modren cars that look ugly and big as a fridge. This car was my favourite one as it was a midsize sedan that Looked good and had space but wasn't big like today's cars which make parking difficult and now days quality is cheap.
Please anyone with a 1992-1994 for sale east coast USA reply to this message. Looking for a 4 cylinder, no abs brakes, and good overall condition. Will trade 2002 camry + cash for your older model if nice enough.
@@sandovalpaul We can likely make a deal this week if you are ready to sell. Check my previous reply for my phone #. (I'm not a dealer and will pay a fair price)
It talks about how the rear has room more typically found in a midsize sedan yet it is a midsize sedan and for the time this video was made one of the larger midsize sedans. maybe he mispoke
The Camry was considered compact in some places as some of the length measures like the wheelbase meets the limits for a compact vehicle. The 1997 Camry brought all measurements to midsize
@@worldlinerai the 1997 was 188.5" in lenth with a 105 wheelbase the gen 3 was 187.8" with a 103.1" wheelbase. People keep saying the gen 4 is much larger in reality it is barely any larger. I will agree that the interior volume is increased substantially. The way car sizes are classified is pretty odd in my opinion, as an auto engineer myself it is a pet peeve of mine. For a car with the overall exterior dimensions about matching an E39 5 series or W210 E class it blows my mind that some markets classifies a car with such a large body size a "compact". But here in the states many view the EPA classifications as ludacris. I dont get it personally but the classifications arent within my control anybow

Im glad to have one, a 1995 toyota camry wagon, same shade of green as you see in the video.
The exterior is still beautiful in 2019. And I feel that 1992 Camry is bigger than 2019 Camry , although it's actually smaller. But the 1992 interior is out of date.
Well it was good when it was signed off in 1989, so of course it's out of date now.
The interior space got smaller due to new safety requirements for side collision. The 1992 Camry doesn’t have side airbags and curtain airbags and the pillars and roof rails got thicker over the years.
The Corollas is the small camry
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..
and what happened in the end brother
@@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 !
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
When he said the trunk even has enough room for a spare tire, I said to myself that my Camry has 5 spare tires in the trunk and there’s still room
Dang my car looks really good in this video 🤣
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'd take the wagon version.
Around the same year, Hyundai Sonata was also marketed in Canada to compete with the Camry.
I own a 1992 one. I will never sell it.
Got an 09 Camry and love it
the way this guy pronounced celica really threw me off there
Тойота это легенда
I have 96 is very good car and strong ❤😎✌🏻
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.
Beautiful car and good built. Looks nice alot nice then modren cars that look ugly and big as a fridge. This car was my favourite one as it was a midsize sedan that Looked good and had space but wasn't big like today's cars which make parking difficult and now days quality is cheap.
I still have one

Super Toyota!🙏💪💪💪💪💪👍👍👍👍👍
When they were well built
Put premium in these and it makes a difference. Runs quiet.
The V6 engine would benefit from premium but not the I4. I remember the owner’s manual saying premium recommended only for the V6
my 1997 toyota camry is pretty similar to this
Is there a way to find this format of video for the fourth generation Camry?
X2
It talks about how the rear has room more typically found in a midsize sedan yet it is a midsize sedan and for the time this video was made one of the larger midsize sedans. maybe he mispoke
The Camry was considered compact in some places as some of the length measures like the wheelbase meets the limits for a compact vehicle. The 1997 Camry brought all measurements to midsize
@@worldlinerai the 1997 was 188.5" in lenth with a 105 wheelbase the gen 3 was 187.8" with a 103.1" wheelbase. People keep saying the gen 4 is much larger in reality it is barely any larger. I will agree that the interior volume is increased substantially. The way car sizes are classified is pretty odd in my opinion, as an auto engineer myself it is a pet peeve of mine. For a car with the overall exterior dimensions about matching an E39 5 series or W210 E class it blows my mind that some markets classifies a car with such a large body size a "compact". But here in the states many view the EPA classifications as ludacris. I dont get it personally but the classifications arent within my control anybow
I got an 98 camry for free with 358,592 miles omg it is quiet for a 5sfe 4 cylinder engine when it idles right now has 365k miles

My trunk lid won't stay up!
very informative.
Mine’s still running
There are a lot of these kinds of videos in Toyota's TIS - techinfo.toyota.com - look under the "NCF" tab - New Car Features.
hell yea!
2021: SOLD!!
I have my 93

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
Taurus engineers : ??????
In Jersey, I see tons of pre-2010 Camrys and an occassional Taurus. And Taurus outsold Camry in the 90s. Taurus might have won the battle, but Camry won the war. ✌
