1997 Toyota Camry, XLE V6

 

This page was last updated sometime in 2003. It is now 2007. I still have my car. I will be updating this page soon. A lot of things have changed. All of those pictures were taken in California and I no longer live there. I also no longer have that interior blue neon. Or the Silverstars. Despite all this, my car looks virtually the same. Anyway be on the lookout for when I update this page. Thanks!

Greetings! This page is dedicated to my automobile. The title at the top tells you what kind of car it is. Beauty isn't he? I could be modest and say it's nothing special. Granted, compared to other show cars and hot rods, it's not. But to me, it is!



Story: This car was purchased on May 29, 2000. When we first went to the dealership, we were looking to buy an Echo. We wanted something that got great gas mileage. A car big enough to seat 5, yet small. At least that's what I though! After test driving the Echo, mom wasn't impressed. She wanted something bigger, more luxurious, and with POWER. The salesman showed us the Camry, and that was that. He made the mistake of telling my mom to make him an offer. After hours of fruitless negotiation, they finally gave in to my moms original offer. What a steal. :-)

After my mom realized I needed a car more than she did, she decided to let me have it. Complete with payments. <sigh> Now almost 3 years later, I've got a great car that's still running strong!

What's new: I bought something for my car and added a picture of it. Read about it below. Enjoy!

Blog:
I bought a neon light for my car! Something I've wanted for a long time! While some people think it's rice, I don't! It's nice to have something giving off a cool blue glow inside. Plus, it blinks on and off to the beat of music. Some things on this site have yet to be updated like the links page. Drop me a line if you feel like it. Later.
