Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
Hey everyone,
I have been looking into buying a 07 Camry SE for a few months now and have been going back and forth between the hybrid and the SE. I have now decided on the SE and went back to the toyota site to build one and get final pricing. It seems like that have changed their packages and prices and it is coming out way cheaper than before. Basically, a fully loaded one is coming out to $26,435 whereas before I thought it was closer to 30k. Are these new prices on their site correct? I have yet to find one at a local dealership at this "new" pricing.

For the most accurate package options might I suggest using Toyota's eBrochure. All you have to do is type in your zip code and it will generate a PDF listing all of the common option packages and prices available in your region. Toyota's build a car site, in my experiences, has been crap. It typically seems to lump numerous option packages together, even though they are available separately (sometimes not listing options all together). Edmunds is also a wonderful tool for pricing out a new car.
EDIT
The eBrochure is not the same as the standard brochure you can get from a Toyota dealership. It is region specific and list common package groups sent to your region along with general specs and dealer/port installed accessories. It is far more comprehensive than Toyota's craptuclar Build a Car function.
Nope...they have dumped the prices....very very bad move on Toyota's part IMO. Dropping a car by $4k in MSRP for the same features (A 15% drop) is going to leave a very bad taste in many buyers mouths.

from my window sticker... (04/06 build - bought in may)
Not sure how you can even add some these options now. I tried to build another one using 98052 as the zip code and not sure how to configure it like what I bought. You can only add the Nav. option and can't find a place to add leather and the rest.
In the past.. my option B had more items (VSC, Rearview, Spoiler etc.) now it's different. Personally I think there website is off now and I bet when you go look at the window stickers you'll see all the additonal option packages or the individual options and their price.
I do see a little of a decrease in pricing but not anywhere near 4k on Toyotas website. What kind of options are getting because when I got to build a 06 SE V6 the base price is already 25,300
1. Presumably we're talking about the SE four-cylinder automatic, if we're talking fully-loaded at $26,500 or so.
2. No option package includes leather / heated seats.
3. No option package includes navigation.
4. Switching to the SE V6, it looks like "it comes with leather." Though, just bisque and ash -- I don't see charcoal anywhere.
5. Fully loaded V6 with leather (still no option package with navigation) comes to $27,085.
6. Wow, the four-cylinder XLE with leather is almost $1,500 more than what I paid for mine when I bought it.
7. The ONLY model with an option package including navigation is the Hybrid. There's just not even one word about navigation for any of the other models, anywhere.
Prices on the Camry's did go up... The Toyota website changes their packages according to the number of orders they get with those specific options. Those packages are the ones that are most commonly ordered in your area... If you want something different from those pacakges, you'll have to order it and it will take FREAKING FOREVER!!!
So, if it seems like the prices went down, they probably dropped one of the options from that combination package.
