Gen6 I like my Se V6 but

I like my SE V6 but there are a few things I would like to change. I have had no problem at all with the car no rattles no trany problems nothing.

I would like the electric seats to move faster. The new camry seats are half the speed of my old XLE. I would like to have climate control like the XLE and I would like to have bigger wheels and tires. Maybe more confortable seats also.

No offense, but why didn't you just get an XLE?

Buy bigger wheels and tires.

I recall Motortrends comparison of the SE to Se-r complained about rims too small on the SE.. While I agree the rims look a tad small on the SE's.

But what I find stupid on the comparison,, on the same article they complain at how hard the SE-R rides on real roads... You can not have both,,, big rims, little tires = harsh ride on real roads. (well at least in my state,, we have very bad roads)

I test-drove several SE-R's before I settled on my Camry. If I would have had an extra $1k in cash (I wanted to buy the car in cash), then I would have purchased an SE-R.

And honestly, I'm still questioning my decision.

And, I do agree that I would love to drop an automatic temp control in my SE, don't think it's easily possible though.

I like the look of the new Camry SE compared to the Altima SE-R

Even 215/50-17 would help

I have a 02 Acura TL also it has 215/50-17 tires and there is a noticable differnce in size between it and the SE's 215/55-17.

I wanted an SE with Climate Control so I would get the ground effects and bigger wheels...

I figured it would be easier to aftermarket that kind of stuff than trying to change the climate control, so we went with the XLE.

My biggest beef with the XLE is that Toyota should have ponied up some chrome or polished rims... even if only 16".

Speaking of which I was at the dealership the other day buying a 4Runner and I saw a 07 Camry with a TRD PKG wheels and everything.
