2002 Toyota Camary 4 dr. Sedan LE, 4 speed Automatic.

MSRP $20,530
Invoice $18,637
CarsDirect $19,337

CR comments:

The Toyota Camry is roomy and comfortable. It's easy to get into and out of, has an excellent control layout, and serves up a quiet and composed driving experience. It handles well, though not as crisply as the Passat; the brakes, though capable, aren't as good as they should be. Part of the Camry's redesign is a new 157-hp, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that's one of the smoothest, quietest Fours we've tested. Reliability should be much better than average.

We chose the midlevel Camry LE, which starts at $19,800 with a four-speed automatic transmission. An optional antilock brake system (ABS) and sunroof bumped the price for the LE we tested to $22,539, including destination. The CR Wholesale Price is $19,639.

If you're gonna get the Passat, you might consider the diesel engine. Incredible milage (>50 mpg) and pretty peppy for a diesel. Not the diesel of old, i.e. noisy and smelly.
