hi all,
any camry 2.0g owner can share what are possible problem you face with your car.

realiability, maintenance cost ?

I dont think ull have any issues with reliability or maintenance. Besides, all the owners of the current Camry are still new so they wont be able to tell you anything credible about the car. But why would u wanna waste your money on that car? There are much better options out there compared to an overpriced car with a 10 yr old engine and gearbox and a boring design. Go for the new Mazda 6 and dont waste your time with this Camry.

i'd go for altis 2.0 rather than camry 2.0. new engine..new gearbox..got stability control.

They are one Toyota and mostly Camry owner setup a group in FB, u will get most feedback and help over they. any body can join it if u interest.

Are you kidding, ALTIS! How could you compare the Altis with Camry, interior space Altis is totally out, too small, even compare to other C-segment like Civic, Sylphy.... Altis is time to get a whole new car.

i duno y u still wana consider Camry?? so many cars around esp K5 and u still wana buy the old car of 10 years tech, no VSC, empty spec.. get the K5...

Camry is a nice and comfortable car. I don't think that 10 years old engine and gearbox will bring you any problem in the future.
Like chinese say . 'doesn't matter the idea is old or very old, the most important is the idea can run smooth'.

There is a Camry owner who is organizing groups to go to Toyota to complain about their cars. Not sure if his is the new one, but he is not happy. Got problems, and Toyota is unable to fix them. He seems to be not the only one.

I do think it matters if the idea is old, when it puts your life at risk. At the price of a Camry you can expect much better protection. The car should help you avoid accidents. And in the case of an accident it should protect you. The Camry does neither.

If comfort is what you are after, Citroen C5. Might still have discount, putting it in the price range of the Camry 2.0. Space, workmanship, premium feel? Skoda Superb, but the list price is of course high. But not as high as its competitors, the E class and 5 series.

And of course there is the K5, Mondeo, Passat, 508, Sonata, Mazda 6. All are better cars.

thanks, i have been asking the same question to myself many times, why buying or considering this old engine,low spec, and so on.
very tempting to get mazda 6, but worry local machanic wont' know how to repair it as i stay in kampung area, very frequent travel to outstation.

old engine have been around for 12 years, what could be the disadvantage of it ? FC, ppl claim ard 9 - 10/l
, Honda a little better than it .
the only thing is no VSC, i checked ard,, teana,honda 2.0 also dn't have.

hope i can be a bit more younger, i will sure go for mazda 6.

I see. Any other brands got SC in your area? I don't like going to outside workshops, since I went to one the whole car is rattling, central locking is damaged in parts, etc. Even with a Camry they may screw up.

No VSC and only 2 airbags. That's the same level as the Saga FLX+ or Myvi.

If it has to be a Camry... last gen 2.4? 4 airbags and VSC (unlike the new 2.5). Better deal.

thanks,,
in that cse, will accord 2.0vti-l a better choice ?
i hv honda and toyota sc near my area.

actually went tested both, honda ride is so so only..

Go to test drive the new updated 2013 Nissan Teana, seem like very promising plus newly added blind spot radar warning plus new black interior.

thats why toyota can sell camry..ppl always looking for a size without realizing tht camry is using old vvti with old 4 speeder. pls check altis 2.0..smaller than camry..use new dual vvti..new cvt..of course will give better fc. i'm not comparing size..but looking at the spec, of course altis is better with stability control. even new civic is using old r20 engine and sylphy got no stability control and using rear drum brake.

3 years warranty and maintenance worry for what not like have to pay anything also

Come2. M6 waiting for u. Go to this site

last gen camry 2.4v still runs on 2 balloons only laaaa

Mazda salesman spotted!

Brw, I'm his colleague

how much is Mazda 6 now ? any discount ?

Don't think so. They are selling rather well.

If you don't like the Accord ride, I'd suggest the Citroen C5. But out of stock, and the new distributor is not interested in selling cars.

Maybe Mondeo?

thanks all, maybe this weekend i go test test Teana, initially thinking to buy this but found out sharing same engine with splphy, and 300kg more heavier,, kind of confuse,, does it hv enuf power,,,

let me test drive it ,, just need a reliable machine to bring me from A to B. Comfort is my first priority.

btw, anyone know Is teana having better safety feature than camry ? am looking at 2.0 ..
