1998 Toyota Camry yay or nay

1973dust said

I have come across a 1998 Toyota Camry with less than 100000 miles. I don't have any details on options right now. It was an older lady's car. Just wondering if anyone has any experience with these as far as reliability and such for a drive to work car. Thanks.

My wife and I have a 1998 Toyota Caldina in our fleet - Caldina is a model basically the same as the Corolla and Camry. Engine in ours is a 4-cyl 2.0 litre gasoline....with automatic + overdrive. It has been a very good car since we first bought it. Serviced regularly, it has approx 165,000 miles on it. Runs quietly and is relatively good on gas.

I would trust Toyota above most other makes as a daily driver. As long as they get the regular service and the timing belt is changed at the recommended intervals....they last forever.
