Could be...we don't know yet. It's unlikely though. It has Dual VVT-i..and there's a manual option. I'm guessing around the high 6's, low 7's.

if you want a 'fast' car...why would you even be looking at a 'Rolla...or Camry?

This hasn't been a new story for years.

Today's V6s will wax yesterday's V8s. Today's 4 cylinders can wax yesterday's 6 cylinders.

Technology reigns supreme when it comes to performance.

Soon there will be a zero cylinder car that's faster than all of our cars.

Where's the news?

x2....

oh no, my camry is slower than the corolla. oh noes!!!!! i better get some nos

but on a serious note, the new corolla with its standard features looks nicely equipped. having the camry engine, similar interior and exterior it seems like the only thing camry has over the corolla would be the size

Camry is the fastest car.......fastest selling car. Toyota knows well that even if it puts a slow ass engine (I4) on a Camry it would still sell.
