it's been fun but time to move on.

with my gen 3 overheating for the 2nd time on 2 motors, I'll be parting out my Camry sometime next week. sorry, i won't be parting out any stock parts. hopefully someone will buy the car as-is or else i'm rolling it off a cliff. LOL

i'll be replacing my Camry with either a '09 camry SE V6, '09 4runner sr5 or '09 venza.

Why not wait for the 2010 Camry? They're already at my local dealerships. The Venza does look nice though, I'm headed to the new car show with my gf tonight so I'll get a chance to sit in it and what not.

4 runner = slow (relitivly), poor handling, lumberous.
Camry SE V6 = fast, slightly sporty, sexy.

Not really - just updated styling, LED tails, and standard VSC/traction control. Might as well go for the 2010 if you can find one.. I much prefer the mid-gen facelifts in general and the 6th gen is no exception.

yea, i don't think we can wait for the '10. we need a reliable 4 door ASAP.

as much as i'd like to mod the new car, it's purely going to be a family friendly car.

since the wife said no mods to the new car, i'll be looking for a super cheap 1st gen LS400. i wont do anything extreme except for coilovers and some nice wheels.

camricer, that Venza is sick but like i said, the new car will have 0 major mods.
