Retired my 1990 metallic blue Olds Ciera after having it for 16 years...feels kinda weird not having an Olds in the family anymore...my Dad sold our other 1989 black Olds Ciera last year to a friend of his. My paternal grandfather had worked for Delco Remy (GM) in Anderson, IN and so my Dad got a special deal in buying our Oldses when we lived in Roanoke Rapids, NC. It's something how having a car for so long you become really sentimental about it.
But this Camry and BTW it's the first import that's ever been in our family...I was told by some peeps that Camrys sell fast down here and I'm very grateful that I bought it when I did because later after taking the Olds to the place where I bought the Camry...anyway, we were told that a couple from VA had called and shown interest in the same car that my folks and I had our eyes on!
The Camry runs very well...although the gas cap...it's funny...there's a gas cap release handle right near the trunk release handle in these Camrys but the coil spring is worn out so for one to fill up there needs to be another person in the short-term to manipulate the gas cap release handle while the other person then opens the gas tank cap...kinda hard to explain...but not surprising since the car is 5 yrs-old. Will be taking the car to a mechanic that the dealers know and work with and will have a new coil spring put in later next week!
