I can't believe how smooth the ride was (and still is) on the '92-'96 Camrys. Good luck finding that today.

Here are some beautiful examples of the 3rd generation camry (1992-1996). I had no idea people where swapping in Mr2 turbo engines running 400 horsepower. Never mess with a camry, you just never know what they are hiding under the hood.

Here is a photo of my old 1993 Camry LE V6. It had 235K miles and still literally looked like brand new on the inside. It had been a 1-owner car and garaged kept. I regret selling it.

This was taken in 2003 before I sold it..... someone had put later model Camry wheelcovers on it.

Those fixed up Camry's look awful. Whatever happened to taste? I don't know why anyone would drop a MR2 motor in one either considering it has no torque and there are better options available. The 3S-GTE isn't the best option for a high output engine.

Agree with everyones sentiment that the 3rd gen Camry was the best vintage to date. Those things really moved with the V-6 too.

That is a really nice Camry you've had there, I've always thought the mid 90s Camry's were the nicest looking Camry's of them all, I wish today's Camry's would be as nice looking like they were in those years

My husband drives a '94 Camry. It has a much more solid feel than my '05 Camry. My issue with the '94 is that it is so low to the ground. But the styling is timeless, and its a nice smooth ride, with a solid not flimsy steering wheel.

Oh, and no room for the "super size me" drinks . The cup holder is comical. It looks like its designed to hold a 12 oz. to 16 oz. cup. '94 was back in the good old days when Americans were a little less hefty and drank less pop!! Now we're sold mammoth 64 oz. drinks in the drive thru.
