Congrat! I live in Canada too, where do you lived? I lived in Toronto. I also placed an order of a white SE . . . but I have to wait till August in order to get the car. Anyways! It look really nice in White! I guess I made a right choice. Thanks for sharing the photos!
I have got 3 rattles - and believe me i'm not being overly picky about them.
1. the sunroof rattles when it is fully open driving at 80-90 km/hr. (approx 50mph). It kind of resonates in the roof?
2. the driver side door panel, near the seatbelt pillar, but in the door rattles at about 60-100 km/hr. if I push against the door panel while driving, the rattle goes away.
3. there is a rattle in the rear deck/rear window area... I haven't been able to pin-point it as of yet. It comes anywhere from 40km/hr - 100km/hr. It happens even on very smooth roads.
Thanks for the info. I only experienced the rear rattle so far that you have descibed. I actually thought it came from the sunshade that is mounted on the rear deck but it doesnt. What really bothers me is the squeks that i keep hearing from my front dash(air condtition area and where the shift knob is) and its annoying. Now it even starts when you first turn on the air condition. Seems to be worst now with the heat and the car always being so hot.

I noticed those sqeeks (they sound like "clicks") for the first time yesterday when it was like 40C degrees (killer hot) outside. and when I turned on the A/C, it got worse (as if the cooling plastic was contracting or something... but once the car really cooled down, it got better.
The main problems so far are the rear-deck rattle and the sunroof rattle. DId you get the rear rattle fixed? If so what was it?
I can't believe my 2003 acura EL (souped up civic) had ZERO rattles for 3 years.
The toyota is a nice car overall so far... even with these minor production-quality issues.

My Japanese Camry is squeak, rattle, slosh, pop, hesitation and loss of power free!!!!
I know exactly what your talking about, the same issues that I have and I keep wondering if there is something that can be done about it cause the squeeks are getting worst but like I said, only when its hot or when I first start the car, once the car is running or the weather is not as hot, it doesnt seem as bad.
I havent got the rear deck fixed, will see first if it is getting worst and if so I will bring it to the dealership again. I love the camry and the minor issues arent as bad but hopefully they can be fixed.
Maybe we should have gotten japanese camrys like njerald.
