3rd Generation My new carmy

I recently bought my first car. I bought a 1995 camry v6 XLE off my older brother who had it just sitting in the yard. I paid $500 total but my aunt gave me $200 for a graduation present so it was a measly $300 haha! So far I have bought new tires and some other things to tune it up, but still need to get a new windshield and fix the flex pipe. In total so far I've spent probably $1,000. Oh and its got 188K on it. Tell me what you guys think.

Nice ride man. and welcome to toyota nation! You're lucky there. I wish that I had the 95-96 with the V6 engine. And that looks like it's in pretty good condition on the outside. and what a steal at that price. I bought mine from my cousin for around $2000.00.

Interior is in good condition nothings wrong, just all stock. Leather interior because it is the XLE model. I'd like to get a new radio though, nothing to fancy just need something besides a cassette player haha. Not really sure on the prices but looking on craigslist it seems like 2k-3k for a good condition camry so thats cool

Why did your brother just have it sitting in the yard? It looks like a nice car and fully loaded also.

Maybe it's just the photo, but your headlights look like they have clouded up from sun exposure.

You can fix them inexpensively with a kit like this from the auto parts store.



Does your brother drive the black Maxima in front of the Camry now?

Nice! I like the color and I'm jealous that it's got a sunroof. I like the gen 3.5 a lot.. And you're lucky that you've got one in V6. Good luck with it and I hope you'll stick around

Yeah i was going to look into that tom thanks. And my brother sold it because he wasn't using it and he went down south for a little while. Engines good besides the stupid flex pipe that needs to be fixed so it sounds like a motorcycle lol. Also used some "Gumout High Mileage Fuel Injector Cleaner" which made it run alot smoother
