I bought both of the new because after penciling it out with the high resale prices buying a used one didn't make any sense, I could buy new for just a little more than a 3-5 year old used one. When I bought my 2014 camry I traded in my 2005 camry, it had 299,700 miles when I drove into the dealership and handed them the keys. Other than tires, oil changes, and two batteries the only maintenance it ever had done to it was one wheel bearing at 160,000 miles. I never even checked the automatic transmission fluid the entire time I had it, and I bought it new. It still ran perfectly and the only reason I traded it was I was a bit leery of relying on a vehicle with over 300,000 miles on it to drive to work considering my 250 mile commute twice a month.
