The 1999 Toyota Camry was released in the middle of the fifth generation of production (1997 to 2001) of automaker Toyota Corporation's best-selling mid-sized car. The LE trim--the Camry's "luxury" version that was equipped with a standard four-cylinder engine--was ranked above the base CE, but placed lower than its six-cylinder engine-equipped sibling (LE V6), as well as the "extra-luxury" trims XLE and XLE V6.

Engine, Transmission and Fuel Economy

    The 1999 Toyota Camry LE came with a 2.2-liter, 133-horsepower in-line four-cylinder engine, and it had a four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. With a gas tank that could hold up to 18 1/2 gallons, fuel economy was rated at 23 miles per gallon (mpg) for city driving and 30 mpg for highway driving.

Safety Features

    The 1999 Toyota Camry LE had power door locks with the child safety feature, and driver and passenger airbags. It lacked the anti-lock brakes of the LE V6 version, though, and other safety features such as traction control, vehicle anti-theft system and keyless entry were not made available.

Interior Features

    Designed to seat up to five people, the interior of the 1999 Toyota Camry LE included air conditioning, cruise control, power windows and a stereo system with AM/FM radio and cassette deck. The cloth upholstery came in Gray, Oak or Sage.

Exterior Features

    The 1999 Toyota Camry LE, like the other trims, only came as a four-door sedan. It had 14-inch steel wheels. Standard exterior features included the customary lights and windshield wipers, but not much else. The colors of the 1999 Camry LE included Antique Sage Pearl, Black, Blue Dusk Pearl, Blue Velvet Pearl, Cashmere Beige Metallic, Sable Pearl, Super White, Vintage Red Pearl and Woodland Pearl.

Price

    The original manufacturer's suggested retail price for the 1999 Toyota Camry LE was $19,858. As of 2010, according to automotive valuation publication Kelley Blue Book, the price range of a 1999 Camry LE is between $6,000 and $6,500.
