The second generation (V20) Toyota Camry was built from 1986 through 1992 is massive quantities and used as a basic transportation device for millions of people. It wasn’t an exciting car by any stretch of the imagination, but it did turn many domestic car purchasers into future Toyota buyers with its quiet commitment to reliability […]
The recipe for a the ultimate good times with a craigslist advertisement goes a little something like this: First, find a inexpensive car in extraordinary condition. Then, make unsubstantiated (and unverifiable) claims like owned by a former duke of Albania or used in the independent film ” Marco Polo’s day off”. Finally, write your test […]

The Toyota Aurion was based on the Camry ā all it had was a redone interior and new front and rear fascias ā and replaced the Avalon in Australia. The TRD version added a supercharger to the already […]

Can the wagon gods bring some excitement to the life of drudgery associated with the ultimate driven machine? Find this 1991 Toyota Camry […]
How do you make the world’s most boring dull-machines a bit more exciting? Carbon fiber wings, fart can exhaust and neon underglow? Nope, not even close. Try leaving them 100% stock, but make sure they are low optioned, manual transmission as original as possible…then, and only then will the buyers come running. It just so […]
