2012 | 4dr Sedan 178-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Toyota consistently in top 5 JD Powers brands. Friends owning Toyota vehicles have had stellar performance. Important for a road car we plan to drive 10 yrs + more around town. I have had good pas luck w/Chrysler but 2012 cars like 200 not fit my needs. see full Toyota Camry review |

Despite the recalls Toyota remains a brand with excellent reliability and dependability. Both the dealer and Toyota have gone to great lengths to ensure I was satisfied before and after the sale. Resale value has been consistently high. see full Toyota Camry review |

Toyota has a reputation for reliability and quality. Although there are a few squeaks and rattles in the car I feel that this car could last the next fifteen years and come out better than many of its competitors. see full Toyota Camry review |

I have owned a used Volvo 544, and a used VW Rabbit, both of which were disasters, and then bought, new, a Corolla which I gave away after 19 years when I bought the Camry. (It is still running.) That told me the reputation was welll-grounded. see full Toyota Camry review |

The 10 year/ 100,000 miles warranty is un-beatable. I spoke to couple friends & co-workers who owns KIA or Hyundai, they all said the warranty is great, but they never needed it anyway. A reliable car with great warranty, no other auto makers can match. see full Hyundai Elantra review |

Hyundai has gone from bottom of the bucket to top tier automobile in--my opinion--less than 10 years. To me, this fact alone speaks volumes about the company itself. The Elantra is a fantastic competitor to the Civics, Sentras and Corollas out there. see full Hyundai Elantra review |

I always thought of Hyundais as unreliable cars. The only reason I took a chance on this car was because of the warranty. see full Hyundai Elantra review |

Horrible trade in value. I was actually told by a dealer that they did not want my car!! It was a year old, excellent condition with 30k miles. They said resale is horrible for hyundai. see full Hyundai Elantra review |
