    "Sometimes older is better!" Shows cougar photo 🤣😂
  • @ryanmowrey4903
    Bought a 2012 SE at 100k miles. Runs like new. Almost at 140k now. No issues, great daily. Just regular maintenance
  • @Sir.Francis
    I've got the exact 2012 Camry, had it since 2013. I do most of the work on it myself & I'm at 340k miles and still running like new
  • @wendyabrams9690
    Love my 2012 Camry. Bought used 3 years ago with 89,000 miles, now almost 190,000 miles. It hasn’t given me any problems, and runs great.
  • @Hhaisenburg
    I was an Ex-Technician at a Toyota Dealership for 5 yrs and this model was by far my favorite in terms in reliability and cost. Majority of the time these Camrys don't need much done to them besides normal maintenance.
  • @flyguy6255
    I will be forever grateful for finding Scotty Kilmer ! This man is an encyclopedia of automotive knowledge
  • @zachevans7348
    I’ve had a 2012 Camry since 2012. Honestly been the best car I’ve ever owned. Only had to replace a brake light switch once but other than that no issues whatsoever!
  • @topherd1011
    The 2AR absolutely WILL burn buckets of oil if you take Toyotas advice and change the oil every 10K instead of every 5K. The piston rings get gummed up, scores and damages the cylinder walls, and BOOM, burning buckets and buckets of oil. They see it every single day at the Toyota dealership. Those who DO change the oil every 5K or 6 months (and yes time matters just as much as mileage) fair much much better. But this engine CAN absolutely be an oil chugger if you don’t look after it.
  • Oh god its a garbage truck i gotta wait now "shows silverado" 😂😂
  • @photonrayswaves
    Thanks to your advice Scotty I just bought a 2012 with 78k for $8995. Love it!
  • @wowcarwow
    I learn a lot about reliability after watching of these videos. I will name my son ‘Toyota’ and my daughter’Honda’
  • @deu8894
    Thanks for this Scotty, I use a 2005 Toyota Corolla LE which I bought as a used car in 2015 April as my daily driver in one of the most challenging cities to live on the planet and never replaced the engine/gearbox. All I've done is change of brakes and suspension components. I've been thinking of the 2012 Toyota Camry SE 4 cylinder as a replacement and your seal of approval just made my day. Thank you so much
  • For clarification - this 2.5 with the 6-speed continued past the 2012 model until the 2017 model. 2018 and newer use the new dynamic force 2.5 and 8-speed transmission
  • @Anthroid9
    Scotty, you must be my angel because I am looking into getting a newer car and I watch your videos for info. This video was meant for me in my time of need. Thank you so much for all you have done for me, and for the whole youtube (and internet) community. Thank you sooooo much!!!
  • @photonrayswaves
    This is the car I bought 3 months ago. Paid $8995 with 78,000 miles! Love it! Thanks Scotty!
  • The audio system is amazing! It's like the best stock audio in the world!
  • @lapamful
    Lol at the garbage truck meme! 😂

    Hey there, Scotty. I bought one of these babies a little more than a month ago, and I’m LOVING it! It’s a beautiful Cosmic Grey 2012 SE that only had slightly under 116,000 miles on the clock and only one previous owner whom obviously babied it, as I had discovered when I washed it and detailed it for the very first time 2 weeks ago. And as far as being “the perfect used car for anyone,” you are 100% correct! In addition to such crucial categories as safety, reliability, fuel economy, comfort, and low annual cost of ownership, it’s got everything else I really wanted: leather interior with sueded inserts, sunroof, paddle shifters, Toyota’s awesome Entune infotainment system…the works! And the proverbial ‘icing on the cake?’ ‘Shadow’ is quite a looker! I get tons and tons of compliments from all of my colleagues on ‘his’ angular, lantern-jawed looks, which is all the more remarkable considering how I park on the side of our office building where 4 of our executives park (a.k.a. Millionaire’s Row) and they all own 3 newer Mercedes-Benzes and 1 newer Volvo S60 among themselves. In a nutshell, my Camry SE more than holds its own in the aesthetics department. Great video, Scotty! Keep up the excellent work!
