 The 2008 Toyota Camry is a mid-size sedan available with a 158-horsepower 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine or a 268-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 engine. It offers a comfortable ride, ample interior space, and front-wheel drive, with both four-wheel anti-lock brakes and stability and traction control systems as standard or available options. Key considerations include potential oil consumption issues with the four-cylinder engine and the option of a very quick V6 for those seeking more performance. 

• Four-cylinder: A 2.4-liter engine producing 158 horsepower and 161 lb-ft of torque is standard on all models.
• V6: An optional 3.5-liter V6 engine provides 268 horsepower and 248 lb-ft of torque, offering significantly more power.
• Transmission: The four-cylinder comes with a 5-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmission (XLE trim is automatic only), while the V6 models are paired with a 6-speed automatic. 

• Four-cylinder: The four-cylinder achieves an EPA-estimated 21 mpg city and 31 mpg highway.
• V6: The V6 is rated for 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway.
• Hybrid: The 2008 Camry Hybrid was also available, offering fuel economy comparable to a sub-compact car, around 5.7 L/100km city/highway. 

• Braking: All models come with 4-wheel anti-lock brakes, electronic brake force distribution, and brake assist.
• Stability control: Vehicle Stability Control and Traction Control are standard on V6 trims and available on the LE V6.
• Handling: The suspension consists of MacPherson struts with coil springs and stabilizer bars front and rear. SE models feature a sport-tuned suspension. 

• Oil consumption: Some four-cylinder models from this generation are known to have issues with excessive oil consumption due to defective piston rings. It is advisable to check for maintenance records or have a mechanic inspect for this issue before buying.
• Reliability: While generally reliable, some owners have reported specific issues like fuel pump problems and problems with interior trim.
