That's your typical "quick steal and pull licks" car.
Everywhere across the nation.
I have a question Scotty is a 2008 Toyota matrix Xr manual transmission a good buy please help🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
scotty would you recommend the autel maxicheck pro scan tool for a consumer grade purchase?
Scotty, would you recommend a 2016 FRS
yes more knowledge and this is what I wanted
Got one for my son, $2500. Cherry condition. Owned by an old man who couldn't drive anymore. Rust free Florida car.
@soli Sanchez cherish it. get to point A to point B without incident. Will live longer than the earth lol.
hifi trucker very nice when he is through with it you might drive it haha 😂
Lucky son right there
The old man Probably sold it for Meth.
Florida
@@peoplesrepublicofliberland5606 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This will probably get lost in the comments, but I just wanted to say thank you, Scotty. My grandpa died when I was young and my dad left my mom when she was pregnant. I love cars and am always looking to expand my knowledge with how they work. I love watching your videos because you just seem so friendly and you're an amazing teacher. Kinda like the grandpa/dad I never had lol. I live here in East Texas so if I'm ever near Houston and need car repairs, I'm definitely coming to see ya haha
Sorry son, I wasn’t ready for a kid. Can you forgive me and give your ol dad a hug?
Out here in East Texas too mane pray things get better for you brother 🙏🏾
@@MidwinterEclipse ur messed up😂😂
@MidwinterEclipse
Why would you make a joke like that? The guy is pouring his heart out. Your life must really suck..
I got the same exact car 6 months ago but for $1,200 ;)
I sold my Buick Regal 2001 for $1,700 81k miles
How much you want for it?
Scott Baseball you shoulda looked for the nicer XLE Camry of the same gen those are so nice
@@805NAVE My mom drives one and absolutely loves it.
Bingo!
My mother has a 2003 Corolla she bought new. That car has never needed any work done except normal maintenance , brakes, exhaust and tires. It doesn't even have any rust problem underneath which is incredible since it has seen many winters in the North East.
"It's not a turd mobile!'
Scotty-isms are great!
I don’t remember when was the time my dad passed his Camry to me, and he told me that, when this car breaks down, he will buy me a brand new mustang, now I am 27 and just have had a baby, I am planning to pass this Camry to her, so I can buy other one
Kinda bites you got screwed out of a mustang 😂
He told you that, because he knew he'd never have to buy you that mustang lmao!
might as since it's a girl
Dad smart. You now smart. Your kid has a great shot at smart!
Couldn't find a Camry in my area but did find a 09 Corolla with 65 thousand miles, One owner with 5 speed manual stick in mint condition for 2000$ Canadian. I've been driving this car for 4 months and amazed how well it runs and how good it is on gas . It's the first Japanese car I've owned and I'm really impressed considering it's almost 12 years old.
Wow! Still runnin' like a dream I bet?
I’ve got a 2005 Toyota Camry V6 SE with 180,000 km in the cold streets of Toronto. NO ISSUES!
Scotty I have 5 Toyota cars but I still can’t wait to see your daily videos .. keep them coming
Scotty i got a 2001 Corolla CE for the wife to drive. She's just learning so we bought from a friend for 1200CND just have to replace the sway bar which costed 143CND and the struts are not the best but the engine oil was changed regularly. Checked the ATF it's red and not dark so it's still pretty new. Runs and shift perfect I should have had one of these before saves me a lot of money on gas and repair
Used Camry’s and Accords: keeping the nation running!
Please where can I get a Camry online?
I got an 04 Camry for 2600 buck, 186,000 miles, minor cosmetic damage, but she runs like a dream
A good old Camry 👍 one of the best Toy-ota
My car's manual says for "taxi service," defined as mostly stop-and-go trips, change the oil every 3K miles or six months. I drive about 5-6K miles a year. So I've just been changing every three months.
A conventional oil change costs about $45 including sales tax, so that's under $100 a year. Heck, my annual car insurance is over 500% more than that!
we have a 2001 toyota camry 190k miles driven everyday, the steeing wheel squeaks too, and we just changed the same sensor,still runs great.
Got an '04 Solara (2.4L 4-cyl) two months ago after Scotty's approval. Car's in great shape, only 76k miles.
A week later: "Here's the worst engine Toyota ever made: The 2.4L 4-cylinder"
He meant those engines from 2008 to 2010
Lmao
The engine you have is one of the best for reliability ever made. he wasnt talking about that engine
I was aware of its excessive oil-burning issues. But got a really good deal on this relatively low-mileage, well-maintained car.
But Scotty never said anything about it being the "worst" Toyota engine when I asked him lol. I think he found out a week later.
Should've found a v6
My 3.0 Camry was 1500 but abused and neglected so I put thousands to fix it but I’ve had it a year now. Expect it to run forever mine has the same catalytic converter codes
I bought a 2003 like that last summer except mine is blue, has 145,000 miles on it and I drive it 90 miles a day to work and back. I love it. I still have my 1990 Camry I bought in 1991. It still runs. Just be careful of the ones built from 2007-2009. I think the 2003-2005 maybe 2006 were really good cars.
I totally agreed.
I bought this car $1800 in 2017 with 182k miles. I used it for delivery & I added 63k miles in one year making it 245miles.
I sold it for $1500 even with a dental in the trunk. This car can run forever the only thing I did was oil change every 3weeks because I was driving 5k miles in every 3weeks.
Bought my camry in early 2016 for $4k@137k miles. Still drive it to this day. It's a solid vehicle and will still run when it needed maintenance.
A couple things I learned from craigslist.... anything they have no pic of, is damaged. Especially the drivers seat bolster. Observe how many interior pics just happen to miss that part. If you're interested in a car, negotiate the price before you even go look, you'll buy if you like it. Bring exact cash, if they play games when you get there walk away. Go look first thing on the morning so you van hear it start cold.
Got 240,000 miles on my 2006 manual Accord, not a single issue yet.
Might change my timimg chain tensioner soon although its not noisy. STILL original factory clutch.....STILL original struts, not bouncing or leaking and tires r wearing even so not changing them yet.
EVERYTHING works on interior even the clearcoat is still good!!
This is my 3rd 2003-2007 Accord.
I drive 270 miles a day, 6 days a week.
Toyota should start rebuilding the Camry station wagon that’s what they really need to do , I still see some 1990-1991’s Camry wagons on the road, and they’re hard to find if you want to buy one.
Whenever Scotty Kilmers drops the new videos I roll up the fat Woolford and get all schmoked up.
We had a 2003 Camry LE. GREAT CAR. We bought it used in 2011. The clear coat started coming off just like this one. Well not quite as bad. Reliable! It has about 160,000 miles on it. We gifted it to our daughter. She immediately drove it to Florida and back to Iowa. No issues. We bought another Camry a 2017 SE in December 2019 with only 8600 miles on it....which was totaled by a Hail storm in April. Yea that bad. Believe it or not our insurance company gave us High blue book for that car and we then bought a 2017 Camry LE with only 3900 miles on it. Camry's are boring but reliable!!!
Way to go Scotty. The old commercials had it right huh!!! "I love what you do for me Toyota"
This reminded me of my old Honda CRX. I wish I never sold it.
No way 05 grand prix gt for 1600. All it needed was coolant elbows n heater core hose to run reliable and proper. Been a yr this month since I got it. Still runs proper. Got a new battery cause its canada. New spark plug wires for fun. Alignment. Balanced. I love this car. Also 320k. Im sure the engine will last till 500k at least. Runs better than the 2019 impala I put the first 15k on. Someone rear ended my chevy epica and trash it while it was parked in my apartment complex spot
Scotty, I have the exact same car. Bought new in 2003. 170K trouble free miles except for normal maintenance for a car with that many miles. Clear coat is original and perfect and looks like it just left the show room inside and out and I live in Tonawanda…not far from Cayuga Island, so you know what the weather is like in western NY.
Dude, you forgot: "My last Video ever"... Hit that next week.
We bought a Camry and used to drive a pickup. We never drive the pickup now unless we are hauling something that won't fit in the Camry.
I bought my 16-year-old daughter a Grey 2002 Toyota Camry for $2000, and she loves it.
I have a 2003 Camry and I LOVE IT.
PO420 I got an 05 (same make/model) with 158000 miles, got the same code , replaced both O2 sensors (denso) and still same lights... Im done ( no emission tests where I live).
My paint is shot also..
Just bought a 1999 Camry Solara for 400$ with 285k. A shitload of miles but runs so smooth. Fixed about 10 things on it and sold it to my next door neighbor who drove a junket with no heat or air for 900$. The car runs better than mine.
*$400
STRIPPED HEADBOLTS!!
FYI in the NE at Camry with 200k there are two for sale one is 3k the other 5k. Nobody’s is giving them away.
Right On ...
My 05 Malibu 3.5L V6 still has the original cats at 267,000 miles.
I only replaced my 99 Camry with 273K because I wanted to, not because I had to. And now I want another to daily drive.
Scotty, please do a video about how full synthetic oil isn't 100% synthetic.
Scotty laugh about painting old camry.... Here in the UK some folks start to value what they used to have as new cars a peace of crap with its lawn mover engines and it is quite common to repaint old Camry LS400 or IS200 it's simply worth it.
Should I get one of these or a mercury grand marquis?
I kept getting a cat code on my Astro van and one day I had a dead battery, come to find out my positive cable was just loose so after snugging it up no code. The preheated wasn't getting enough juice
I have a 2002 with 297k in Puerto Rico roads and its still strong and Shinny ...
Yea no salt put on the roads
I'm looking for a nice car for my father in law and I have considered this version of the Camry for him.. Scotty: Your review helped me to make decisions on that - thanks from me and Dad
I’m pretty sure the jugs of antifreeze in the trunk does not mean there’s a cooling system problem
This guy knows what's best. Finally I found a channel that tells the truth. Thank you Scotty keep posting videos.
Yup i owned 2 2004. Different time periods. Loved mine
I had a 1999 Camry that looked a lot like that one. It was a great car! It had over 159,000 miles on it. However a person pulled their SUV right out in front of me, and that was the end of that quality car.
Used Toyota Camry is the best first or work car. I personally prefer how the Accords drive but from my experience Accords are not as reliable or as the Camry. It’s the truth they also ride harsher due to slightly stiffer springs.
The camshaft gears break easy on these, so no not bulletproof.
Just a quick question you say high way miles are like one tenth city miles why doesn’t that translate to oil changes
One of My favorites of your videos
Hey Scotty, what do you think of a 2000 Nissan Altima to buy?
You can do your own struts replacement for less than 300$
I'll be on the lookout for one of these.
My friend calls it the Cadillac converter.
This body style is the last of a good Camry . 2007 and up are not what Toyota Camrys use to be . I had a 2005 and now a 2011 . I’m a automotive tech/mechanic of just about 18 years. I’m not happy with Toyota’s quality in the past 10 - 15 years.
We just sold our 4cyl 2002 accord .
Current cars are 2011 Camry .
2016 Honda CR-V and new body 2007 Chevy Silverado with 6.0 . Not sure I’ll buy another Toyota anytime soon.
I have a Camry but want another v5 would like a sunroof or moonroof and hatchback? What should I get?
My 2002 Japanese made Camry has 240K; the head gasket has a leak. Not sure if I should repair, get a used engine or dump it for worst built newer cars
5:48 nailed it. 😅
Have an 06 Camry xle with the v6. Same issues had to replace the struts and I’ve had the cat code that comes and goes at it pleases. Overall very dependable car, bought it for $6000 cash at 90k. Oh yea the clear coats pealing too.
I appreciate how reliable these things are. It's pretty incredible. But man they are boring. Boring to look at, boring to drive.
However behind all those bland cars lie some incredible engineers, who, when they really turned their minds to making an exciting car, made the Supra, which is a monster of legendary proportions.
I bought a 04 last November.
A 02 sensor extender will help pass emissions
hasn't scotty already reviewed this generation of the camry?
Buy me a car
Here in California a cat is $450
With all the technology theses days can't someone make a paint system that doesn't peel? How hard can it be?
I remember old cars not peeling, they usually faded but no peel
I wonder if most of his neighbors use his services. If not they should.
A video on the best 4 door cars that are manual? I currently drive a 1998 Toyota RAV4, now I want a good sedan or hatchback that has a manual transmission.
The Mr Burns laugh had me rolling 🤣🤣
If a car has a Kelly Blue Book value of 3,000 dollars less than what the private seller is asking what should I do. I want the car but don't want to be ripped off.
The solara is just the Camry with a different body. Bought a 2001 at 116000 miles half a year ago for 3k. It's been running beautifully never looked back since. Going to get my money's worth out of this car
They were quieter back then too
Earl Scheib will paint that car for $99.95, just DO NOT have him do the doorwells or you have paint all over the inside of the car.
scotty i would really like to know your opinion about the swedish saabs were they any reliable, would you like to own one e.t.c nice videos by the way!
Take care of them maintain them
i mean this guy has helped me find my sister a car
Where I live people will think that this care is gold and want $3000 for it.
Scotty: What is the name of the item you use to keep power on the cars when you change out a battery. It plugs into the obd port.
what device was he using at 1:29 and 2:27
Scotty do you approve of the 3/5 comprimise?
Hello Scotty, I love man 😊, I watch your channel with my son 4.5 yo. I want to know what to look for in Scanner when buying a used car and which device can do the job? Thanks in advance. Best Regards
0420 assess O2 sensor pre-cat...
i’m driving a 98 v6 accord with 247k miles and it runs like a top and ac still blows cold
We had one of these as a Taxi car, it 721 000kms, the motor finally gave up, not sure think these engines can not be rebuilt?
Scotty, I have an ‘06 Camry. I replaced the accelerator pedal position sensor assembly due to hesitation issues. Afterward, when I start the car the engine revs very high. How can I fix and or reset the sensor?
In NY, cars 1996 or later would automatically fail inspection if the check engine light is on. You can't renew the registration without passing inspection. Are there any states where that would not be a problem?
Scotty take sun glasses off once
I have the same exact car and have the same exact check engine light for the catalytic convertor haha
That's not a bad car for the price!
What you think about of those news dodger charger 2015 to newest??
check the engine & see if it has a timing belt? a very expensive replacement!
This dude has over 3 million subs... wow
Craigslist is too scary for me. I've seen too many police reports that start with Craigslist.
How is this guy a mechanic and not a car salesman lol
My car randomly craped out and was jittering a lot and the rpms were dropping. So we plugged in a scan tool and it said a code for the camshaft sensor and crankshaft sensor and timing belt. I tried changing both the cam shaft sensor and crankshaft sensor and after changing the crankshaft its stalling now. I was just wondering would you have any idea of what could be going on. It just hit 200k and was running smooth before this.
