I'm thinking of buying an 89 Toyota Camry, but I was told that the car is a little 'loud' due to the exhaust pipe, and may need to be replaced. They told me it would probably cost $80-$100 for a replacement. Is this accurate? Sorry, if there's not enough info, but this is all I know about it for now.

Hmmm? I have an '85 Toyota Camry. I just purchased the whole exhaust pipe. (bout 6 feet long) I bought it online & had it shipped to me. Cost me bout...$100...if my mind serves me correctly. ;)
I did the job myself. ;)
My car, AFTER replacing the MUFFLER, (did this MYSELF 2 & saved on labor! WooT!) was SOOOO loud still that my kids can hear me as I pulled into the complex...AROUND the CORNER getting home! And we live ALL the way in the BACK! LMAO
Now that I have replaced the "Exhaust Pipe"...I can sneak up on my babies & they dont know when I am here til I walk through the door. Hehehehehehe
So yea...the daughter of the "Mechanic" (Now & Again) is not correct in saying that it is not JUST the Exhaust Pipe but IS the muffler as well. (though, you COULD still need to replace the muffler) Without actually looking at it, it is really hard to say for sure.
The exhaust pipe can be pretty expensive. Just like anything else though...shop around for the best price. ;)
Will you be doing the job yourself? I do ALL my own work...with the exception of anything "ELECTRICAL"! YIKES! Cant quite grasp THAT aspect. UGH
GOOD LUCK TO YA!

yea theres a few different parts of the exhaust(muffler, intermediate pipe, flex pipe) but $80 sounds like a good price, $100 maybe a little high, all depending on which part of the exhaust system

coming from a daughter of a mechanic no.... it will not only be the exhaust pipe but also the muffler's so about 200 to 300 add in the labor too.
