Consumer Man: That I'm stuck in a lease on!?
Amazing cars. A few years ago I heard that the most popular car to steal was the early 90s Camry (our old one), because over 80% of them were still on the road, and they needed parts! The only reason we gave up ours was because it got cranky in wet weather – which is frequently in the Boston area – and the mechanic I went to (a great guy) said there was no way he could guarantee he could find which of the wires and whatnot were the ones responsible. He said he once spent a week trying to do that on someone else’s car, and it got better but not fixed. So we got another Camry.
