2009 Toyota Camry CE

The entry-level Camry CE trim, also known simply as the Camry, rolls into 2009 with only minor upgrades. The Camry CE comes equipped with a 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine that produces 158 horsepower. The engine links to a five-speed manual overdrive transmission, which comes standard, or an optional five-speed automatic.

Standard features for the 2009 Camry CE include multi-adjustable front bucket seats, power windows and door locks, an illuminated entry system, cruise control, and a six-speaker AM/FM audio system with a CD player and MP3 capability. Antilock brakes with brake assist, an advanced airbag system, integrated front fog lamps, a tire pressure monitoring system, and high solar energy-absorbing glass also come standard.

Drivers have long given the Camry high marks not only for its economy and build quality, but also for its ease of handling, safety features, and roomy interior, as well as its exterior styling. Some have reported an increase in quality issues in the past few years, but given the fact that the Camry holds its value well, the 2009 version should be as popular with drivers as its predecessors.
