1987 Toyota Camry (Cont.)

Traveling through the seasons. This car never let me down. Never had a problem. Got great gas mileage. Drove like a luxury sedan ( or at least that's how I remember it being ). It was the perfect car. I loved it!

1987 Toyota Camry


In 1989, through a lucky break, I ended up being offered a 1987 Toyota Camry with low miles in EXCELLENT condition. A woman I worked with was getting a divorce and her husband told her "You either have to sell the Camry or sell the MR2!" thinking that she would choose to sell the MR2 and that he would win because she loved that car, however, this being Minnesota she couldn't choose it. WRONG! She not only chose the MR2, but she sold me the Camry for just what they had left owing on it. Basically $5000 less than it's book value at the time.



I admit though, I was still tail light obsessed. This car handled so well. Snow, mud boggin, and yes just normal road trips as well.
