my gen 5 is 4T....its a kentucky made (TMMK) line two camry
theres a thread somewhere here that shows how to read VINs
you can tell engine, trim level and everything just by the VIN....its also useful because you can tell what type of toyota oil filter your camry takes by the engine letter in your VIN
