2005 Toyota CAMRY, a winner for all

by ASourdough4 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500
Feb 05 '07 - Updated Feb 14 '07 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Quiet, Comfortable, Nimble, Affordable, Compatible Styling
Cons: DayLight Glare on dashboard reflects off windshield. Tricky 'Automatic' Headlight and Cruise Control.
The Bottom Line: This is the best of many nice vehicles I have driven. I would not hesitate to take it across the Grand Old U.S.A.

No Vehicle would appeal to everyone but the TOYOTA CAMRY is a crowd-pleaser. It is quiet, comfortable, nimble, and affordable. I see them everywhere. After six months of driving this one, a used 2005 LE Model, and many test drives of others, I ...

Reliability is the key word

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Very reliable vehicle, for the price it really can't be beat
Cons: Low warranty may be an issue for some, tires may be low quality from dealer
The Bottom Line: Excellent value for a proven track record.

I must admit I am a big Toyota loyalist. I'm not looking for something that will die in 2-3 years or need major repairs. I have read the one review that someone has put up and find it amazing. Now I freely admit there are cars out there that are ...

The ultimate in luxury and utility, the 2005 Camry easily beats the competition

by howardbruin
Jan 16 '05 - Updated Mar 26 '05 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Top build quality, nearly silent, long list of standard features, excellent resale value, impressive engine
Cons: Small tires, no standard side air-bags, many options not widely available, cruise-control stalk
The Bottom Line: Unless you're dead set on something with more "emotion", the Camry will serve you well for years, and miles, to come.

[Note: In response to suggestions, and more time with the car, I have updated the review accordingly] We recently purchased a new 2005 Toyota Camry LE Automatic (4 cyl.) to replace our aging Buick LeSabre. The following is my impression of the car. ...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Reliability, resale value, quietness, smoothness, looks classy
Cons: Pricier than American counterparts
The Bottom Line: You really can't go wrong with a Camry. If you're looking for a car, I would highly recommend this one..

Let me preface this review by saying I am in my early 20s and am finishing up with school. My main criteria was reliability, and of course price. My peers tend to drive two door cars, or something along the lines of a Corolla or Civic. The Camry is ...

Luxurious Bargain

by lotus5112
Dec 18 '07 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Reliable, standard, safety, re-sale value, and low noise
Cons: Gas mileage for the V-6.
The Bottom Line: This car is definitely a quality car. The ride is smooth and quiet. It has the feel of a luxury car but at an affordable price.

As a 20-something year old, most of my peers are not interested in a car like the Camry. Most individuals are seeking a sportier or budget type car. What I like about this car is that it can appeal to all sorts of people. The ride is where the camry ...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Quiet, smooth, good performance, comfortable, reasonable fuel efficiency.
Cons: Transmission lags when you begin accelerating, and the body rolls in turns.
The Bottom Line: The 2005 Camry LE is a fine car.  After 70K miles it's still comfortable, performs well and is tight and rattle free.

I bought my Toyota 2005 Camry LE new in 2005, and have put 70,000 miles on it, and I still love the car. It still looks good, and performs well. I especially appreciate the performance of the 2.4 liter four cylinder engine. It's smooth running and ...

2005 Camry XLE

by newbiesu
Mar 10 '05 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Even with its quirks, the navigation system is wonderful.
Cons: Overstuffed seating. Rear post blocks visibility. Tricky trunk closure.
The Bottom Line: I rely on Camry dependability, comfortable ride, and love the navigation system even with its vagaries.

I love the navigation system even though it tends to direct me to house numbers existing only in the best of all possible worlds rather than in any town in California--that is, it'll tell me I'm at #2522, but I know the house, and it's further up the ...

Pros: fogs, power roof, 16" alloys, price, tossability, DRLs, leather steering wheel, 5 Spd Auto
Cons: ABS brake pedal fade, gas mileage, temp gauge in metric.

I purchased this car to replace my 1993 Camry LE with 250,000 miles. This SE compares favorably with our BMW regarding handling, road feel and acceleration. Body roll and lean is extremely well controlled. Wind noise has been addressed to the point that ...

2005 Camry Sets Yet Another Benchmark

by denverbrian
Jan 31 '05 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Rock solid, competent, dependable, Toyotas don't break
Cons: Poor OEM tires
The Bottom Line: Looking for a 4-door sedan? Stop. It's useless to waste time comparing. Get a Toyota Camry and get on with your life.

My 2005 Toyota Camry XLE V6 replaces a wonderful 2002 Camry that went off lease. In so many ways, it's more of the same for this model year; there are only a few changes from the '02-'04 production years. And yet, Toyota continues to push the ...

Pros: Acceleration, smooth, quiet, athletic suspension.
Cons: Speakers, heated seats.
The Bottom Line: Great engine & handling packages. Excellent quality & price. Best all around car I've ever owned.

Bought a 2005 SE V6 in November of 04 when they first came on the lot. I searched virtually every manufacturer and vehicle style before I finally found the Camry SE. The "SE V6" features are really what made me lean towards this car. It has the engine ...

The Camry is a great car, but it does have one significant drawback!

by thankingyou1
Aug 20 '07 

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Excellent value for the money, flawless performance.
Cons: One very significant drawback, I put too many miles on!
The Bottom Line: Great car for the money, and would buy another one in a minute!

I drove 35 different cars before deciding on the 2005 Toyota Camry. I bought the 4-cylinder model and got the side and curtain airbags as an option. The rep at the dealership gave me a few extras at a lower price, like the cargo net and threw in a ...
