I bought my Camry as a daily driver as my other car is a 1995 Firebird Formula convertible.

The other car is an ML500 with a 5L V8. I love the torque on that. The traction is insane too. U can practically launch the car in any weather.

I have an 07 Camry SE V6. That's the "city beater." That is used for any distance within the city, as well as transportation of things like concrete, toilets, tiles, etc. I also use that to drive to my lectures and run any errands.

If we get into big stuff like drywall, then I bring the ML500 in. If we're talking about a larger project, then I always get a U-Haul truck. I've driven their "flagship" 26-footer several times, which is a real truck. I must admit there is something special in operating a behemoth like that.

My wife get's to drive the 07 XLE. My daily driver is our 94 XLE.

Our other car is a 1990 Mazda Miata purchased new in October of 1989. I just took it out of Winter hibernation this past Monday. It's as fun to driver today as it was back in 1989. It has never seen snow and only seen rain twice in it's life. In fact, it still has the original wiper inserts.

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.
