That's why they do like a Camry though, if it's new and clean. It shows you're successful enough to have a decent car, meet expectations, and it also doesn't have things girls hate like low ride height, anus shattering ride, loud exhaust.

Chicks don't really like the :poorvette:

I think my gf thinks it's "alright" and is glad I enjoy it, but would rather ride in a regular sedan due to reasons above.

I see nothing wrong with a car such as the new Camry as the daily driver and then a :poorvette: or similar level sports car in the garage.

Eh, if you care enough to have a sports car you may as well :turboyaris: or similar over a Camry for the same price.

It's a perfectly fine car but not made for any enthusiast.

Pending on what :dill: are out there I’ll probablt either swing for a Charger or another GTI. Although I did see an Elantra sport that looked very nice. Hyundai is doing nice things with their cars

Hyundais are terrible to drive across the whole line. Not unlike the Camry, they're comfy and reliable and fine, but if you actually enjoy any kind of driving dynamics, Hyundai/Kia are the worst marque in cars, worse than Toyota.

I owned a better looking version of this car when i bought my 04 TL. I still like it more then the new Camry but neither suit my driving style. It's just too big for starters.

I was a passenger in a 2012 Camry and was impressed on how supple the suspension was. We hit a pretty deep drainage dip in the road ( you know you loved to hit some sick air on your bmx as a kid off these things) and the car just took it so well. :notbad:

Bwahahahaha "hey ladies"

I've had women get my attention in the :poorvette: but its only to compliment the car.
Everyone is different. So here's a story.
I stopped by my friend's work dressed like shit.
Ya know, messy hair, T-shirt, standing next to my pos xr600r and I haven't shaved in three days. I was waiting outside standing behind a pillar and I saw some girl walking out on her phone. I decided to say hi because I didn't think she saw me and I didn't want to startle her if she suddenly saw me as she walked around the pillar. She said hi. Then my friend comes back like did you talk to Taylor? She said she wants to "put the make on you".
So yeah run away from girls attracted to fast cars. Good girls see the real you no matter what you're driving or even if you're dressed like Freiberger from Roadkill.

I guess they're doing it right, keeping it lightweight, look cooler, etc. kinda like the Accord Sport. That doesn't have sunroof either.

Ok so I got my GTI back and the camry is buh bye, i'll miss it but not much. There is one gripe about this car that Toyota could've done, it's the fact that interior lights don't open when you open the doors like, I don't know, hmmmmm almost all cars that has been made for atleast 30 years, wtf toyota.

I’m pretty sure there’s a button or a setting in the MFI.

It costs $0.20 less per unit to put it in the MFI settings instead of putting a dedicated button in the vehicle. :scrooge:
