Here’s an extra star to add to your dash.
I was ambivalent to the changes until I saw the star display is in the dash now, not just the ceiling, so I guess I will have to trade in my old RR for this new one. Can’t be driving around in some piece of crap with no star display in the dash.
...selling my 12-year-old Honda Fit because the local dealer keeps calling to offer to buy it...
Incredibly appropriate positioning of ellipsis
Too early to know about the ditching of the KIA brand logos. I believe the photos are of the Korean model, which always had unique Stinger logos that the US model never used.
I tried my best but I think you are stuck buying it
#1: This car will seriously last you another 20 years.
I bought my mother an ‘01 Camry V6 with 49K on it for $4K earlier this year. In silver-blah on beigey-blah, autotragic. And it has been about the *BEST $4K I HAVE EVER SPENT*. Because it just works, which means I don’t have to deal with my mother. And nobody should ever have to deal with my mother.
aw mannn...if it was in California I’d beat you to it. It’s a camry with the 1mzfe which the 1st gen rx300 and highlanders also have. It’s not super powerful, but it’s smooth and reliable workhorse. Since this is a v6 camry, it probably also has 4 disc brakes which the 4 cyl version did not have. Those had rear drums.…

You know... I always looked down on the “boring” 90s Toyota sedans. But a few months ago, right before the lockdowns started, I bought a 1995 Corolla 5 speed, dinged-up and needing a little work but good running, for $500. I’ve put another $300 or so in it in miscellaneous repairs, and absolutely fallen in love with…
I have a 04 Manual Camry. It drives better than most rental cars I get. Easy to work on and not nearly as much of a boring machine as people would think. Camrys will wallow at much over 7/10ths but for street driving, it handles well enough. Even with all those years and miles, it’s quiet as hell and rides…
I’m having a really hard time seeing why this is a bad idea. It’s about as risky as eating a carrot. Well, you could poke your eye out with the carrot, so, less risky.
Nothing is more reliable than a ‘90s Camry. My daughter was gifted and beater ‘97 when she was in high school. She’s in grad school now. I call it the Cockroach because the damn thing looks like absolute shit but continues to run like a Singer, everything electronic still works and the AC blows ice cubes. The adhesive…
Although I am more a 90s Nissan man than 90s Toyota (I drove a slightly newer Maxima with a manual for over 10 trouble free years) I get the attraction. Looking back these cars seem simple, stout, but not so old that they are not capable of doing most of the things you really want a car to do, and do them all fairly…
Raph my buddy, I DD a 95 2.2L Camry that was $1000. Out of the many German and enthusiast cars I’ve owned, this car is the most reliable and FUN as fuck car I’ve ever had!!!!
But at least he was doing what he loved, violating chickens, so he didn’t work a day in his life.
ended up retiring from the company 10 years later.
