The Camry has at all times been an underwhelming automotive.

True of almost all Toyotas with a number of notable exceptions just like the Supra. Mazdas are most likely the very best Japanese “driver’s” vehicles, adopted by Honda. I keep away from lining up behind Toyotas at stoplights.

However most true of the Camry (at the very least of the particular vehicles in fact).
The Corolla sedan, when geared up with the guide transmission, is a poor mans sports activities sedan. No its not quick, no its not Porsche stage dealing with, however you’ll be able to row your personal gears and carry some crap round and never really feel like you’re driving a soulless fridge.
The Avalon, on the opposite finish of the spectrum, was at the very least an honest V6 powered mid dimension sedan for doing these lengthy freeway cruises. No it wasn’t a City Automotive or De Ville, but it surely might at the very least aspire to be extra of a Buick from Japan. It has a task.
However the Camry? That is only a fence sitting spork of a automotive. Looks like a rip off Avalon or an overweight Corolla with a lacking third pedal.

It is determined by what you need in a automotive. I’ve had 8 Camrys over time and so they have all offered snug dependable transportation. I had thrilling vehicles once I was younger, however then I grew up.

No it actually does not. The issue is not that the Camry shouldn’t be that its dangerous for some makes use of, its that its not good for any of them. What you need in a automotive has nothing to do with that downside. Its like saying a spork is healthier to eat a steak with than a spoon. Whereas true, the correct reply is to get a fork for the steak in case you are consuming steak and get a spoon in case you are consuming soup. The Camry is a spork, its a spoon with slots that drain the liquid out and a fork with tines too brief and stubby to truly work effectively as a fork.

Calling a Camry snug is a joke, its not a cushty automotive. Its not probably the most uncomfortable automotive in existence, however by no means have I sat in a single and mentioned to myself “wow that is snug”, once I consider a cushty automotive I believe City Automotive, De Ville, Buick maybe, however by no means Camry. Its underwhelming within the consolation class.

Its dependable, however not more than different Toyota merchandise which might be higher vehicles. The later fashions with the 4 cylinder engines are actually inferior to the later mannequin Avalon the place they nonetheless had a V6.

And provides me a break, there’s nothing “grown up” about driving a Camry, it simply makes you look unhappy and over the hill driving the identical fundamental plastic field that everybody else is. There isn’t any age I’ll ever be at the place I’ll aspire to drive that, as a result of it has nothing to do with “rising up.”
