Used 2004 Toyota Camry for Sale near San Diego, CA

Odd as it may seem, our 2004 Camry LXE is our luxury car. After years of driving gently-used hand-me-downs (our other car is a 1995 Camry LE), we bought this one new, and have loved it ever since. With regular maintenance, it still feels and looks like new, except for a small dent in the rear fender. Apropos, does anyone make touch-up paint that actually matches a car’s original paint? The front seats are comfortable and adjustable to support the back; the back seat has plenty of room for two [grand] children’s booster seats and their mom sitting between them, and they can adjust the temperature back there. The trunk is terrific – room for just about anything, especially with the fold-down back seats, which accommodate extra-long items. The optional net that stretches side to side in the trunk to hold packages upright seemed like an indulgence when we bought the car, but it’s been very useful, and we miss it when we’re using the older car. Improvements over the 1995 Camry include electronic seat and side-view mirror controls, electronic entry, a better set-up for between-seat storage of miscellaneous items, and cup holders that can still be used when the shift lever is forward, in park. [What were they thinking when they designed the earlier model??] Luck-of-the-draw: Neither one of our Camrys has been included in the recent recalls for floor pads or runaway acceleration. The 2004 Camry is our road-trip car, for comfort, dependability, and mileage. Otherwise, it’s used in-city, for errands. The only drawback that we’ve found (and have had to adjust our driving to) is that despite good tires, traction when there’s rain, snow, or ice is not always reliable. In slippery conditions, we have to leave plenty of room to stop, and we’ve learned not to accelerate quickly from a full stop.

Quality you can count on. definitely one for the Hall of fame. Acceleration is decent. Handling superb. The build quality is in my opinion second to none. I beat up the cars I drive a lot. I drive almost 24000 a year in the car and it still runs quiet smooth and very reliably. I love the fact that it reminds me to change the oil. I think that is the one most important maintenance issue on any car.

My Toyota Camry has been the BEST CAR that I have ever owned! It is always reliable, has not caused any problems for me and is fun to drive. I bought it brand-new in May 2004 and have put 87K miles on it in the last 4 years (my commute is 80 miles each day to work round-trip). I would completely recommend the Camry!

Never had 1 problem, only good general maintenance, was still running smooth at 250,000

This vehicle is comfortable and very luxurious for a 2004 model. The gas mileage is fantastic which equals some hybrid models on a long trip. Maintenance and upkeep has NOT been expensive and the handling is smooth - a pleasure to drive.
