Unless its an M, they don't want to mess with a Gen 6 V6. My friend and his 330cI learned the hard way at the track.

A lot of people have pulled up to me at traffic lights and asked what kind of car I was driving. It seems kind of strange that don't recognize a Toyota Camry!

I was one of those guys until this evening... I bought my wife a new 2008 Camry SE... We fell in love with the bodylines and just couldnt say no..

I swore I would never own a camry until I saw the new body style.. These cars look like a $50,000 Lexus, and turn heads like one too!

Cant wait to start adding some personal touches.. (Wheels, Tinted Windows, and possibly Invisibra)

Going that fast on public roads..well, just plain stupid

That 745 would have eaten your lunch, especially at the top end. At 120, that car was barely breaking a sweat. He probably realized how ridiculous it was to be going those speeds on the highway and backed it down before he had to explain to a police officer that he was playing with a Camry

I'm always told that at first glance they mistaken my Camry for a Lexus.

I think with the camry being COTY2007 and most common, most sold... if ppl don't know by now... they don't deserve to drive

Yeesh, I'd much rather have a 330 CI. It smokes the Camry v6.
