The family Camry!

Hey Toyota nation! My name is Colin and I have just bought a 1995 Toyota Camry 2.2l with an automatic transmission. It has a slipping transmission, so I pulled it out and sent it out to a friend who rebuilds transmissions. What brings me here is to make a long story short, I bought this Camry for my mother who currently owns a 97 Camry 2.2l with its share of 206k, and I have done all maintenance on it for the past 6 years. The 97 has pretty much exhausted its use, as it recently sprung a leak between the oil pump and block...while this issue is totally fixable, the windshield is cracked, the interior is nothing short of ruined, and the power steering system is leaking everywhere so I found this 1995 which has 113k, much cleaner, MINT interior and many many new parts aside the slipping transmission. I myself am a VW guy, owning 4 of them...but I will say, Toyotas are excellent cars, and I used to be a Toyota mechanic. I am awaiting the transmission back from the rebuilder (should get it back tmw night or weds, then I put it all back together and replace some other stuff and its on the road!)

Great to have you sign up with us, Colin! It's rare...at least from my experience...to find a mint interior, so it sounds like you've got a lucky find there.
