All 5-speed Gen5 Camrys are built in Japan which I think gives them better build quality than Kentucky. The SE suspension is a good improvement over LE/XLE and my TRD sway bar makes it even better. I say find one and drive it. You can talk about it all you want but won't know till you take one out for a test drive!
I do notice that vibartion or rattle...mostly from the rear panel(in my case). Shifting has a very positive feeling. And if youguys out there with the stick version. i recomend getting the twm shiffter...great add on. Great overall power, nothing to complain about...except for the fact that my arm rest gets in the way of the shifter in some positions. Its like the armrest is too high. BUt nothign i can't live with.
