Gen6 Gave my wife my Camry

I couldn't fight the urge any more...I sold my Miata to get my Camry and I found one for the right price as a project. I am now about to pick up a 2nd Miata so I will have a dedicated drifter and a cruiser. Ahhh, feels sooooooooo good to be back in the RWD go kart.

Wife isn't crazy about my exhaust so I took it off for her and put the OEM mufflers back on...

I would have opted for the 370Z or even a new Mustang GT/Camaro if I wanted RWD performance.

But the wind in your hair is tough to beat.

Ah, very nice pick on car, either the miata or s2k are both very fun cars to drive, very different compared to the Camrys, even a stock s2k vs a Gen6 on some Tein SS's can't compare.

Because one's a mid-size FWD family sedan and the others are purist RWD roadsters. They will obviously have very different driving dynamics. It would be absurd to make any comparison between cars from very different classes.

If you've ever driven a Miata or S2000, you know that those cars are very tossable and handle like they're on rails, they have excellent steering feedback that isn't light and numb feeling like the Camry's.
