They claim it's a v6, yet in the pictures it has a 4-cyl engine..

They also claim the 7-Series is a 745i, I think it's a 745li, because I don't remember my 745i being that long..

A Camry is already anonymous enough as it is

I don't really see the need for a car like that.

I wonder what's the armored parts like bulletproof? Or just reinforced for crashes and such?

Why is the wheel gap so high though, or is that normal on that trim Gen6? I don't think even CE/LE/XLE are that high.. Maybe they used different wheels with runflat tires, and didn't bother to consider the diameter.

The clear headlamps are pretty cool though, for those that noticed, I'm talking about the clear sidemarks in the headlamp itself.

At that wheel gap, you could even aim inside the wheel well and shoot the struts.

Speaking of armor...

I just hit a curb today...

I hit it pretty hard though, I can feel my car jumped a little.

I did a quick check, but luckily found no damage on the lip kit. I think the curb hit the back rubber guard, the one by the rear wheel, cause I saw a little scuff on it, but no scuff of the tire/rim/kit at all... wierd!

Is there anything that I have to worry about? Can my wheel's balance and alignment be off?

It hit my rear passanger wheel though.
