New DD not a Honda but hell of a deal

Post by Diz »

So I strayed a bit from Honda with my DD...but we got a check for Christmas from my pops and it went towards this 88 Toyota Camry LE V6 with only 111,789 miles. It has leather sunroof bla bla bla and the heater and AC works great. I picked it up for $400 down from a grand. :) Here are some pics.. May I introduce the Burgundy Bomber...

I know there is a dark fluid under the car in the first pic and that is fluid from the defroster when I drove it home.. I sae the pic it freaked me out so I went outside and put my finger in it.. It's all gravy. :)

Congrats Diz I am so glad to see the S finally not be your DD. Also that does look like a good deal you got man.

She needs a bath but this car is strong. Tranny is smooth shifting, it's slow but it acts like it has some balls, I mean you will never get run over changing lanes or merging but you aren't going to win any drags unless you are racing a Festiva :) My only complaint is that it has a tape deck and radio no cd.. but I guess I can get past that. I just need it to pass an inspection ASAP and the S can sit the winter out on the bench.
