2003 Camry SE V6 VVT-I

I was quite lucky to be able to rent this car from Hertz for one day, the new V6 engine is great, I felt the car accelerated much faster than my own car (2001 Camry V6), besides the engine cover looks so much nicer now. The only problem I have with the car is how its gear changed and the engine growl more than my own car. The gear seems to change at a weird moment, the tide became not smooth during acceleration within the city. Probably the gasonline in its tank only has a octane rating of 87.. since it is a rental car.

RD32L that's 5 speed right?

interesting about the automatic shifter... you shift from 2 to L by pusing the knob to the right
