Really, a Camry?

Yep, a Camry.  It is indeed a rare one, but this one’s also here because the ad is humorous.  This is not only a Camry All-Trac, which means AWD, it’s also got a 5-speed manual trans…

Here are a couple choice quotes (SIC):

“Toyota rates these bad boys at 128hp, however it feels more like 135hp on the butt dyno”

“basically like an Evo minutesthe power and good looks”

“AC who needs that shit? Just roll down the windows and enjoy the southern California weather, in the event your girlfriend is bitching it’s too hot simply take it to your local mmechanic and have him charge it and it will be blowing ice cold, that will get her off your back till she finds something else to complain about”

Classic 80s Toyota – heavily oxidized and probably just won’t die.

We love accordion shifter boots.

Up forsale is my amazing1988 Toyota camry all trac (awd) 5 speed. Car has been well maintained and believe it or not it runs even better than it looks. Under the sun faded hood sits a fire breathing 2.0L 3S-FE, Toyota rates these bad boys at 128hp, however it feels more like 135hp on the butt dyno when your ripping through all 5 gears on this flawless 5 speed transmission. Let the light from the fully functioning sunroof shine through the inside of the car and you will be shocked when you look at the instrument panel and it reveals this little gem has only gone 162,723 miles in its 26 years of providing an enjoyable ride for anyone who is brave enough to try and tame this beast. Providing traction is four brand new Douglas tires providing a solid 195mm of contact at each corner with whatever terrain you are tackling that day.

The good
-Brand new tires
-Brand new battery
-Brand new alternator
-Brand new rear axles
-Brand new clutch
-Replaced rear main seal doesn’t leak a drop of auto zones finest oil
-5 speed AND awd, basically like an Evo minutesthe power and good looks
-Very hard to find but look no further!

The bad
-AC who needs that shit? Just roll down the windows and enjoy the southern California weather, in the event your girlfriend is bitching it’s too hot simply take it to your local mmechanic and have him charge it and it will be blowing ice cold, that will get her off your back till she finds something else to complain about
-driver corner llight missing the lens
-paint on top surfaces is faded heavily
-dash is cracked
-failed smog

please keep in mind how hard these cars are to find when making an offer. This is the perfect platform for someone to build the ultimate sleeper. I am open to trades of equal value just send them my way. My asking price is 1700 dollars as is I have a temp pass through the end of March for the car. The car runs amazing I believe it just needs to either a new cat or o2 sensor to pass legally.
