If you are leaning camry you can get no more reliable platform than the 4 cylinder 2.2, 5 speed. The V6 is not nearly as reliable as the I4. My three have all been automatics with no problems - i dont view that as a liability on these cars.
Get a clean one with service records and you will own it for a long time and barely have to put a dime into it.
Okay, back to MB's (currently trying to learn about the ACC to fix it) for me...
