There are also things that you need to be conscious of with an old car that most non car people will forget to do in this day and age. Check the fluids periodically, be gentler with the interior, let the driveline get up to temp, etc.

I upgraded my 01 camrys head unit to an android auto / apple carplay screen. speakers too. was super easy and it works great! basically a modern car now!
I love this generation of the camry, my dad owned a 2000 from the time I was 1 to nearly 13 years old. He got over 300,000 mi on the original power train, it was still running when he sold it. It was the family car, so many miles we spent together in this car. It held up very well. The seat material is great, it hides stains well, it had zero rips or wear in general through the interior. These are very very reliable cars if they were maintained properly. If they weren't maintained, they were known for oil sludge buildup on the 2.2 and 3.0 from 97-01. Due to my dad's Camry experience, I bought a 99 Camry that didn't have many maintenance records. They claimed it was maintained , and I was in a pinch so I bought it... It blew the engine after 3 months at 145k due to sludge 😂. I still want another one of these Camrys, I know my Camry wasn't at fault for the prior owners negligence. It was a bummer situation, because it was mint. Looking back, I should have just replaced the engine instead of selling it for a grand. I feel like this was genuinely the pentacle of Toyota build quality. They're very solid cars! I do want another, I just have to find one that has been maintained, which is hard to find/prove with an almost 30 year old car 😭 great video!
I agree! The build quality was very good on these back in the day. The interior is my favorite part; it's so utilitarian and simple. And the seats feel like sitting on a couch haha. Perfect daily driver for me. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
@divineoracle4809; Hey I have this generation of Camry. I recommend you use 'Marvel Mystery Oil' on any Camry you buy to remove the sludge build up. Watch CarCareNut on this generation Camry, he has a deep dive on all the quirks.
Actually, I think the early 90's to mid 90's Camry's were the ones that started the trend to having it become a popular consumer car, if not the late 80's. My family owned a red 1993 Toyota Camry and it had been in our family till 2023 when I rear ended it on a low speed on the road. I wish my family had the money to fix it but we didn't. We also own a 1999 version which is gold just like yours (body style wise) and that is why when it came time to replace that car I ruined, naturally I went with a 2000. I've owned it for a year and some months now. It runs great for it's age and I just love the simplicity like you said. I was 16 when that body style became available. I love cars and learning about them and I learned to drive in this model of a car.
@SVAsianPhilippinesGo6858 This was the car that started the trend in 1997! These were the golden era of the Camry. Like you said, everything is so simple, easy to use, and perfectly placed for the driver. Love the story. Appreciate the comment!
@M-t3ch Hmm, could have sworn it was the early 90's version, but alright if you did your research. My family came over from the Philippines in 1991 and my family's first car was a 1988 Gray Camry. I didn't like it and called it a "Monster" because I was kinda small for my age, lol. But don't get me wrong, we had money to go here as we were above middle class at the time. I remember the first ever time I tried to park this style of Camry (when I was learning to drive at 16 back in 2000), I parked it diagonally in the shopping center near my house lol. It's a good thing there were hardly any parked cars there at the time. 😛
@SVAsianPhilippinesGo6858 Haha, Camrys are awesome. That is how a lot of them get the "Camry dent." It's that blind spot in the rear. 1997 was the first year of them being the best-selling car every year, I believe! 2001 is the only exception.
@@M-t3ch Actually, I drove a 1995 Honda Civic for 20 years (from 2002 till 2022-ish), but in 2019, I inherited our Red 1993 Toyota Camry that I mentioned earlier, so by then, I had TWO cars to drive to work haha lol. I had my choices...Unfortunately, as mentioned, I rear-ended a small truck with the 1993 one. If my family just had the money, I would have loved to fix the 1993 one. I'm usually a careful driver and because of my many years of experience, that's been my only "big" accident since 2001 when I got my license. The fact that the old Camry's have HUGE windows makes it a lot better (in my opinion) for changing lanes than the new cars with huge head rests! Granted I've never driven a newer Camry (my mom has one, but she won't let me drive it for some sad reason). Anyway, thank you for the lovely chat! 🙂
@@M-t3ch Camry dent? Lol, I don't have any dents in my car. And changing lanes, as I mentioned, in this type of car, is a synch because of the huge windows. 😛
It’s actually one of my favorite generations of Camry, in regard to design. Just enough round and straight lines. I’ll agree, when I had my 14 Mustang GT Premium, it was an absolute blast going on the highway or getting up to speed, especially from a stop. But the most fun car I think was the 99 Civic EX on the back roads. It’s very nimble and the handling is light. Also with a slower engine, you really get to use it all, real quick, unlike the Mustang.
I love my 98 Camry 4cyl 5 speed manual with 276 000 miles on it I was all around Europe in Ukraine Moldova Hungary Austria Italy Czech Republic and some city trips in germany greetings from Germany:)
I learned how to rev match automatics in this car. I can heel and toe a manual but it’s never felt as satisfying as my old Camry. I loved throwing this thing around at car meets, keeping up with the M3s and Mercedes sports cars. On the straight aways, they left me in the dust though.
I had a 2000 CE. No traction control, no ABS. Automatic. I'd enter some corners at 90mph + (after a brake upgrade, cause I got fade at one point) and I was genuinely having ZERO issues keeping up cars like E46 M3's and WRX's on the really really windy roads. I'm so sad it's gone. Long story short a lady rear ended me going 50 whilst I was stopped at an intersection. But this car, this car was my favorite, I had it sideways all the time in the winter, or on dirt, I'd drive it like I was competing in a rally constantly. I have a 1988 5 speed base model Camry today, and I still miss my 4th gen more than anything.
@insid3493 This is so awesome! What brakes and suspension did you have on it? Any oil starvation issues? I tried to do some hand brake turns last winter, and I could not get the rear end to step out for more than a second. It kept under steering. Which is a testament to how well Toyota set up the car.
Well I have a Genesis and an older 2003 Camry and I drive that Camry everyday and I enjoy driving that vehicle a lot, its very basic but something about it I really enjoy driving everyday.
I'm not sure if you remember my comment from when you got your toyota camry v6 with the stick shift. But I did not end up getting her car and I got my own Honda civic 2016 with a 2.0 4 banger. I can say that the smaller engines are pretty fun for daily drivers. It's also a automatic and its pretty simple to work on too
@tbaloni A Honda is still fun! That v6 manual was not mine, it is a super rare spec. Hondas are great dailies, I'm glad you got something that fits your needs.
Have a 99 Camry v6 auto XLE model. Replaced original struts with KYB replacements and rear springs with stiffer Moog cargo type, these firmed it up pretty well. Pretty fun car.
@M-t3ch If you're asking about the ride quality, I'm going to say you may end up wanting to stick to what you have as it does firm it up, especially with the stiffer rear springs.😅
@gwrider2146 I believe that. My e36 m3 has modified suspension, so I know the deal. I'll probably leave it stock then. This is the daily mobile, haha. The ride quality is actually really good for the price the car is.
The 2001 and older Camry were made in Tsutsumi, Toyota Aichi Japan 🇯🇵 among the finest build quality and reliability in the world, only a few batches of 2002 Camrys are made in Japan before production moved to Georgetown Kentucky USA for 2003 and newer Camry’s which the quality isn’t nearly as good as the 2001 and older, true made in Japan Camry’s, my 2005 Camry has few issues while family friend’s 1999 made in Japan Camry with double the mileage almost 200k miles still runs like new!
Im from Europe and currently own a 97 Skoda Felicia. Its a little tin can but its fun as hell to drive despite being incredibly slow. And when you have to floor it in 2nd gear just to keep up with a Rav4 that is normally just starting off a red light is so funny but genuiney fun. The thing weighs 900kg with a full tank which is nothing and it def feels that way. But yeah, so far ive only driven the Felicia and a Renault Megane 2017 which definitely had a lot more power that i couldnt really test cause i was taking driving lessons on it. Also the roads in Europe are waay tighter and more crowded so you can only really test it on weekends. And is genuinely only enjoyable that way. I hate driving through dense traffic.
That's super cool! The only downside to living in the states is larger and less tight roads, haha. I try not to redline this Canry everywhere, but sometimes I have to.
@@M-t3ch hahahahahaha id honestly say that the biggest issue with the states is not being able to walk anywhere unless you live in huge cities. The whole continent is very car dependent. And then you also get a lot of people who dont want to drive driving because they have to. Then you have bad drivers. Here people who dont want to drive just dont drive, they walk/bike or take the bus to work.
I have an 05 camry running like a dream even tho its rusty and might not be in the best condition it refuses to die even with 300k kms only simple maintained required great beater cars the check engine light is just a reminder of that lol
I have the same spec camry, same year and color too just in way worse condition lol. These things are basically cheating in terms of costs and reliability 😂 cheap & bulletproof. But with the trade off of being one of the slowest on the road, and albiet lack luster driving experience. You summarized it very well, especially the part about keeping up with modern traffic! Cars are just too damn fast these days lol!
Haha, love to hear it. As a college student, the peace of mind in terms of cost is awesome. Nothing on this car is more than 100 dollars. The speed trade-off is real though. My friends make fun of the car haha.
i have an Xv20 in the form of the ES 300! great first car that you know that’ll be easy to fix and cheap, a rear sway bar actually did a lot for me, and the body roll was kinda fun for an autocross. they’re a very utilitarian car, and make me enjoy my sports car more
Maybe I'll look into a rear sway bar. I imagine it would help keep the rear end more in line with the front. I'll need to try it at Auto X at some point!
Honestly, any car can be fun just by virtue of being a car. Show even a Mitsubishi mirage to someone in the 1930s and it would blow their mind... its all relative.
I drive a 98 corolla CE, looks almost identical to this car but just a little different so seeing you pov drive this is giving me major uncanny valley lmaoooo
everyone knows that just some stupid lie to not get in trouble even though hes driving like an npc but its obvious lot of other youtubers do the same thing
Where was the fun part? You were way under the grip limit even for a 2001 Camry. Not saying you should wreck the car but I was expecting trail braking or e-brake or something on corners where you could see ahead.
Video doesn't really show it well, but it felt a lot faster in the car, lol. The tires give out really soon on this car. For a lot of those turns, I was almost up to the limit. When it's warmer out, I'll do another one going a bit quicker!
Trust me what he is doing is very fun without taking major risks. Camrys aren't built for cutting up in traffic and cutting corners, especially not one as old as this. Honestly old cars are so fun because they can't do all this but just gives you the feeling of going all out.
@@M-t3ch this is honestly perfectly fine. This guy thinks a Camry is an Audi TTRS that can zip in and out of corners like nothing. This is having fun responsibly and i cant stress how important that is. I hate seeing guys totally risk it on the roads. Risk mortally hurting themselves and others when they can just go to a track and do it safely. Roads are for traveling and tracks are for racing.
@@laurenSmith-bf4fc It doesn't really need traction control but it is also a car from 25 years ago so safety will not be up to par with modern standards.

Video doesn't really show it well, but it felt a lot faster in the car, lol. The tires give out really soon on this car. For a lot of those turns, I was almost up to the limit.
When it's warmer out, I'll do another one going a bit quicker!
Trust me what he is doing is very fun without taking major risks. Camrys aren't built for cutting up in traffic and cutting corners, especially not one as old as this. Honestly old cars are so fun because they can't do all this but just gives you the feeling of going all out.
@@M-t3ch this is honestly perfectly fine. This guy thinks a Camry is an Audi TTRS that can zip in and out of corners like nothing.
This is having fun responsibly and i cant stress how important that is. I hate seeing guys totally risk it on the roads. Risk mortally hurting themselves and others when they can just go to a track and do it safely. Roads are for traveling and tracks are for racing.
@niksonrex88 Exactly, I like to push cars, but you will never find me cutting lanes on public roads.
Does it have abs?
Yes!
Traction control? @@M-t3ch
@@laurenSmith-bf4fc No traction control.
@@M-t3ch ok was gonna buy one but I changed my mind safety first 🦺
@@laurenSmith-bf4fc It doesn't really need traction control but it is also a car from 25 years ago so safety will not be up to par with modern standards.
Nothing special? It will go 400,000 miles!
@zaffo757 True haha
