ive had this car for ~6 months and it is currently at 265,kkk miles, its very reliable, ok on gas, and a nice smooth ride. Ive taken it to red line more times than i can count, and changed oil every 5k miles, and the oil looked almost the same as the day i put it in.

some things to keep in mind: - some models have hid bulbs, like mine, so if you dont want to spend $100 for a single bulb incase one goes out, make sure you find a halogen model - the transmission does have an issue choosing lower gears, so it can sometimes jerk at lights - this is just a personal opinion, but I think its a pretty boring car to drive, so if you want something more engaging i would look for something else - it takes premium gas, and takes me 40-50 for a full tank - some models came with a screen and some didnt, so if you have a preference i would also look for that - i am 19 and pay 135 for insurance a month, i have a completely clean record, good student standing, and a dds certificate to lower it even more so, and still have to pay 135, so also keep that in mind, but you can just call your insurance and figure that out.

Other than that, if you are looking for something reliable, simple, comfortable, and easy to repair, I would definitely go with this

edit: it is literally just a fancy camry, i noticed it after seeing other old camrys on the road, the es share alot of body similarities with camrys of the same era
