3rd Generation What Should I do?

I bought my dad's 1992 fully loaded le camry, 4 cylinders, last november for $1,500 and it had 186,000 miles then and now 196,000. Didnt have any major problems since i bought it other than the radiator going out. The exterior paint is not the best and the rear bumber and front passenger side fender need to be replaced due an accident that my dad got into a while ago. The interior is in good shape, other than a lil wear on the driver seat leather. Love the speakers, i dont kno if they are factory but dad never changed and i didnt but when i hook up my ipod to the factory stereo, the bass sounds real good. Well here's where i need ur help... My sister is selling her 96 avalon which she just put an engine in it which has about 90,000 miles now. I drove it and the new engine is very responsive. The outside of avalon is average, couple of scratches but the paint is shiny. Her interior isnt the best, i dont know if all avalon xl have the same material but looking at the materials in the interior i think the 92 camry is alot better plus her seats are cloth. Looking around i havent seen many things that can be done to an avalon like body kits, clear lights, etc. So wat do u guys think i should do stick with my 92 camry or go for the 96 avy? Also do the 98-99 headlights fit on the 96 avalon? Thanx!

Id go with the Avalon. Try to swap your seats if you can, they may fit although it might look a little odd interior. The Avalon sounds much the better deal, because of the milage and no body damage, those are big issues. Especially because bodywork is very expensive to fix right.

I dont know anything about headlights, ask the auto parts guy and if the numbers are the same, they fit.
