Another local cherry

Is $18K realistic, even as a starting point? Maybe if it had 8000 KM instead of 80000KM (4970 miles v. 49700 miles). 80K is still low for a bulletproof car, but...

Perhaps a prescription for medical grade products is involved?

What the Duce?!

What's with the price?

Maybe if it was a 5 speed, and had alloy wheels, and leather interior, and the original window sticker, and was a Supra....

Actually Paul, i'm a bit of a camry fan myself. My brother has a '96 4cyl with well over 200k (engine and trans have never been apart.) He calls it his "good car" 'tho all his other vehicles are newer and have less miles.

Back in the day (1989-1990) when i was doing dealer exchanges for a local toyota dlr, i had the

opportunity to drive two of the coolest camrys (IMHO)- a 4cyl m/t all-trac wagon and a 6cyl m/t sedan. Never seen another example of either since.

But still- 18k??

Aha, yeah, I'd love to get my hands on a camry wagon alltrac!

Mine's a 92 Wagon, 3.0 3VZ-FE, we're rebuilding the engine, and I owned a 2001 camry before this that my sister is still driving!

Camary is a built proof car. Most you find on CL have 300K+ and still going.

But this price is insulting.
260K with no end in sight....
