  • 2012 Toyota Camry 4-Cylinder review featuring the base L model. This Camry has 60k miles on it and has the 2.5l 4-cylinder engine, the most classic used car ever probably. The 2012 Toyota Camry is the ideal daily driver for most. Honda Accord Review: • 2014 Honda Accord Revi...
    The Toyota Camry will forever be the go-to choice in the used car market. There are other choices like the Honda Accord, Mazda 6, Nissan Altima, etc. but the drivetrain is simply proven on the Toyota products. If you own a 2012 Camry with a 4-cylinder, let me know how it has held up for you.

    I have a 12 LE and it’s been a great car it has 128k miles and literally drives and runs like it’s just a year old. Very comfortable ride and never gives me issues. Even with me not having a huge income that car is so affordable to own and I can drive a newish car and still pu very little for it. Heck my insurance with full coverage is only $100 because it’s a Camry. A lot of people say the Camry is boring but fail to realize that it’s meant to be just a car. That’s like making fun of a Lamborghini for being too fast. I feel as though the 2012-2014 Camrys are the last of the reliable Camrys. I see a lot of people in debt driving cars that may look cool but those people are broke. It’s the people driving used Camrys that are the real smart ones

    Video maybe old but as a huge car enthusiast who just loves the heck out of high horsepower and good looking cars, there are just moments in life where simple things like this matter more. I humbly say that I own this exact model and the rest of my saved income went to investment accounts such as 401K’s, IRA’s, and other types of investments. Maybe sooner or later I will be able to buy my dream car but at the same time I don’t think I will be letting go of this car as it has never given up on me as well.

I've had my second hand 2013 base model Camry for about 3 years and even till this day I just stand around looking at it in the driveway, just grateful to have it. I drive between 300 - 380 KM 6 days a week and every time I come home and park it, it just does it, no complaints or issues, no matter how much you drive, Toyota cars just obey. You can have your hobbie car dream but the pure definition of a car, getting from point A to B with ease, comfort, safely, reliability and plenty of room for luggage, that is a Camry.

I also agree with the wise words that you said about not being embarrassed and depressed about driving this amazing car, because I agree that the majority of the people that are driving Mercedes, BMW, they are the ones that look depressed and I honestly don't even think they actually enjoy the cars but they only want the gratification and the acceptance of others, they just want to show off to people that they don't even like, you should only look to impress yourself not others, because all of them don't even care about you in the first place.

    This video got me seriously thinking about purchasing a 2012 Toyota Camry from a private owner with 100,784 miles for $11,000.00. I am doing research on it and it is a little bit over than what KBB and Edmonds said. I appreciate this video in letting me know that the 2012 Toyota Camry is a well built vehicle and does not have bells and whistles that are not necessary for getting around.

I sold it and bought a one owner, local from NC, 2014 Camry LE ( with leather. I believe he paid the dealer or 3rd party to install the leather ) for $11k with 120k miles as my daily to replace the Corolla and it is worth every dime. I am very pleased with the vehicle and ride quality. I did buy the fog light kit since i didn’t like the plastic on the front bumper but I’m very pleased with the vehicle. Pretty smooth and comfortable. Thanks for the video.

    The 2.5L is a solid engine. However the earlier 2.4L 2007-2009 Camrys are huge oil burners as are the Camry hybrid 2.4L versions from 2006-2011. The 1.8L in other Toyota vehicles during this era are also big oil users including the Prius from 2010-2014. Check for excessive complaints on any prospective purchase since the problem is in the design of the piston rings.

    I agree. People always say Toyota is the most boring cars in the world, but when I'm on the interstate, I see Camry, Corolla, 4runner, highlander, etc at 85-90 mph. Obviously Toyotas are good enough to cruise at those speeds and still run 400000 miles. I'm saying that as a Honda person. I respect all car brands. Toyotas will run those roads believe it or not. People that drive Toyotas knows this as well. They do not feel they have to do the speed limit in a Toyota product. For what you need Toyotas delivers.
