How long have you had your Camry?

Simple question, how long have you had your Camry?

Today is 3 years to the day I drove mine home from the lot.

Bought it for $8k...well financed it.

When I got the car it had just under 55k miles on her and today 3 years later she has 64,xxx on her. Just about 10k miles put on in 3 yrs...Not too shabby.

I ask this because i'm curious to see how long people like Allen, Yukio, Justin and others have had there Camry's for and how long they've been modding them.

5 years if I remember correctly. I bought it for 11.5 when it was worth 12.5 with only 26K on the ticker. Now I have about 104K and have been turbo for a little over 2 years now. I never knew how to drive standard until I bought this car. I hopped in and stalled 4 times the first day and was good after that. Funnier than that was that I bought the car over the internet from Kentucky and had it shipped to Texas without ever even have seen a picture of it.

I've had mine for about 3 years. It was mom's 2 years before that. We had to have 2 cars and when my last one died on me she decided she wanted an SUV so I took over the payments. It had a little over 60k miles when we got it and now it's close to 135k. I'm doing little stuff to it right now. Being in college and working a low paying, part time job doesn't leave much room for serious modding. I take that back, it hasn't really left me any play room. Most of the big stuff on there are Christmas/brithday presents. Really the only things I've bought myself are the muffler and the neon lights on the inside.

Since Sept. 2004. Been trying to save up for both car and next year's summer trip to Korea/Japan. Most money goes to my trip than my car.
