This camry has 4 engine variants.

The first one is the 2.5L 4 cylinder engine (6 speed transmission)

The second pix is the 2.4L 4 cylinder engine (5 speed transmission)

the 2.5 was fitted in the facelift in 2009 so the one with the 2.4 should be 07-08 model years

The XV40 Camry was introduced at the 2006 North American International Auto Show alongside a hybrid version and went on sale in March 2006 for the 2007 model year.

Power comes from a choice of four and six-cylinder engines. The 2.4-liter 2AZ-FE I4 engine was carried over and produced 158 horsepower (118 kW). It came with a five-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmission. The 3.5-liter 2GR-FE V6 in contrast came with a new six-speed automatic and produced 268 horsepower (200 kW).[127]

When you open the bonnet, check the stickers on the inner side for engine type.
Having someone who knows more about cars than yourself carry out a pre-purchase inspection for a fee; to help look out what only trained eyes can see helps.

Nurey thanks for the insight going by ur simple explanation the 2009 with the 2.5L seems to be more powerful but in a scenario when engine fails which would be cheap to buy I have heard people say some engine come with 20pin gear which is very expensive I would wana aviod that also which of them drive smooth over to you sir.

This is Toyota, engine failure is not associated with it. I would advice the 2.5L as the gear in the 2.4L especially those in 2007 have issues getting damaged easily.

Check the fluid and test drive to confirm gear conditions before buying and then always follow the gear ATF schedule maintenance in the manual for a long lasting use.
