Hi everyone... I'm planning on buying a camry for my first car. Would a 1995 Camry V6 be a good car to begin with or should I buy a 1995 Camry V4 and then swapping a 3s-GTE engine?

Thanks guys!

Either would be a fine first car. My '93 Camry is my first car, and so far it has been a blast.

I dare say that while aftermarket support may not be incredible, working on the car is very fun and easy (as far as finding things goes).

first thing, change V4 to I4 before you get flammed.

second, if you make a mistake like that your definitly not ready for an engine swap.

id go for the V6 if i were you, they are rare but you can find them in manual.

my Camry is my first car

its a 4-cyl, but i didnt really have too much option in that area, since we bought it cheap from a friend....
but in your position, i say go for the V6
