The $500 car is one of the most underrated workhorses in society. It’s critical that these cars exist to help those who can only afford that much.

We seriously need to bring back Affordable, Reliable & Fun (Sporty) wagons to N. America. So tired of the SUV overkill already. Very cool to see this find, hope you will keep us updated on it's future.
Cheers!

This car deserves respect. Just treat it nice, do not trash it, do all the scheduled maintenances, and run it as a daily if you want to see how well it does over time!

I had a 1996 Toyota Camry XLE V6 and it had 560K miles before someone side swipe me and bend the frame and it was a total lost. I’m telling you, it was still driving buttery smooth with that V6 engine. Unfortunately, I couldn’t drive it no more because of the frame being bent.

Honestly with that many miles, that Toyota deserves to get some love. Hopefully you guys can find a bumper and two matching hubcaps to make this Camry whole once again :)

I have a 357k 2014 Mazda 3 hatchback and took it for an oil change. The mechanic asked when I had the engine rebuilt. I said I haven't had to do anything to the engine. He said it's incredible, it's bone dry in there, none of the seals are leaking. I love that car. It treats me well. This toyota would be a perfect work car for me.

350, 000 miles on a 1996 Camry means that the owner took care of it that's why it lasted so long, but a lot 90s Toyota are still running 😮

Don’t forget to do the timing belt. You can’t check oil with engine running. You do check transmission fluid while running.

What more does a person need... It is honestly a vehicle that has everything you need, reliable and worth preserving! Please fix it and film its development for us!

What an incredible find! This high mileage Camry wagon is a prime example of why Toyota has such a loyal following. It's impressive how well it has held up, and it's a testament to the care and craftsmanship put into these vehicles. Thanks for sharing this remarkable story!

That thing is a gem! Gold emblems, V6, spotless interior, honestly if you just threw a new set of wheel covers on that and gave it a good detail it would look amazing. That car has life left

I had a 1990 camry that I bought in 1990 and sold it in 2021. You need to stop at Walmart and get an Obd2 reader for the check engine light. It might be a bad gas cap. Your battery might be dead because your alternator is bad or going bad. Auto Zone can check your alternator. When your engine is cold in the morning, take off your radiator cap, top off your radiator fluid, start your engine and let it idle with the radiator cap off for five or ten minutes while watching the radiator fluid at the fluid fill neck where the cap goes. If you see bubbles coming up through the fluid, you might have a blown head gasket. Also, that year may still have had a separate differential fluid reservoir with a fill and a drain plug separate from your transmission. Check your differential fluid level to make sure it's not empty. If it's empty, that could cause your speedometer to bounce around which may indicate worn out parts related to your speedometer or differential.

never thought to check the oil with the car on lol

[snakehandler]

One of my absolute favorite specific models of all time. How many of y'all miss wagons?

[zachtravers]

The 1MZ-FE is one of the best engines ever made, as long as you keep up on the oil changes to avoid the sludge issues. We had a 2002 Lexus RX300 (1MZ-FE with VVT-i) with 347k miles on it, we only traded it due to rust, it wouldn't pass inspection.

Absolutely love this kind of stuff. Need to have a community of high mileage gems

"Does a Toyota EVER Die!? "
If you've ever been to Africa or any remote part of the world you'll quickly learn that the answer is "no".

My mom has a 1999 Toyota with over 327, 000 miles. She bought it brand new. Only the driver side window doesn't go down other than that it works great. Starts and drives still like the day she bought it.
