No more Gen3 :(

I sold my 1994 Camry XLE V6 to my parents for $2500, which they are giving to my sister since shes turning 16 soon. So im now a proud owner of a 2007 Camry LE V6

Here are just a few quick pics:

The SE was nice, but they ran about $1500-$2000 more then the LE, and the only ones they had on the lot were fully loaded SE's for $29K+.

I just love the new V6, it's so fricken fast, lol.

Nope, same engine and trans. The only difference is the SE has a different grill, standard fogs, slight body kit, and comes with factory rims. There may be a few other options but I cant remember.

I really like the color to, I was looking at a blue I4 5-spd, but it was just too slow, especially since I was coming from a V6 Gen3. As I said before, this car is fricken fast, lol. I also love manually shifting :P

The V6 is fast... its double the HP of Gen 3 4 cyl. The new I4 aren't slouches either, they can keep up with gen 3 V6's.

Ya it is, 3.5L FTW!

I wouldnt quite say that though, the Gen3 V6's were around 188HP, while the Gen6 I4's are around 158HP. They are powerful enough for people who only need to drive around town, but I'd say my '94 V6 had a bit more power, and it was also a few hundred pounds lighter.

And thanks again, I cant wait until I drive the car again tomorrow to work

Ya, it was a pretty big upgrade, but well worth it!

The first of my mods on my list are rims. Since I can get 2 new sets of tires alligned for free from the dealer, im looking for some stock XLE or SE rims, so I can swap those out.

I also plan on adding a true HID kit, custom grille, stock fogs, and a few other things.

I think it's been validated the TCH can keep up with the older V6's and outgun the current I4.

Very nice upgrade! I was gonna buy a '07 LE V6 instead of my tC. At least your Gen 3 is still in the family.
