So I got a 2018 Camry for a week.

Since it's humpday, I decided to do a Maxtdi style review on here for shits and giggles for an appliance. 
First off, it is the new body style, SE model, No sunroof, half leather half cloth, no sunroof, no keyless entry, no push to start, base as fuck.
This is my first time ever I've driven a Camry, so I can't really speak too much from driving experience compared to other Camry's, which in other words, NFG character it has, and shit to drive. But I have ridden in ubers of previous models and some cabs (well duh)
Let's start with exterior, compared to previous Camry's, it looks really good, looks more sporty. The front end is probably my favorite part as far as exterior goes. Side profile looks good, nice lines and attention to detail, nothing bland about this car. Kind of looks like a late model ES with the wheels.
The Interior is pretty damn nice for a Camry, really a nice place to be in. The head unit is really responsive on iphone music along with USB (unlike my GTI)
, didn't fuck around with bluetooth. Gauges are basic, duh. As explained before, the seats are comfortable, but on the firmer side, essentially the pleather is closer to the side edges on the seat, but put cloth in the middle, perfect location for back, so I won't get back sweat. I am the first renter of this car with only 17 miles when I got it, so they're probably not broken in yet, I think. Lots of storage, especially on center console. The car is essentially a living room. Back seat is huge and I'd have no problem banging a bitch in the back 
Steering is pretty much how you expect it to be, electrical steering and light. It has steering assist when you drift out and all that bullshit luckily you can turn it off.
The transmission is where it surprised me, it's not a CVT, but it's an 8 speed slushbox, and it is pretty responsive, kinda reminds me of the ZF 8 speed on a v6 charger I've driven a year ago.
Handling/Drivability: I took ramps at 40-50 mph, and it doesn't seem to have an issue taking that ramp, doesn't seem to have a body roll as well. Brakes are decent, acceleration is pretty much how you expect to be for a 4 banger camry, I felt 0-60 maybe in a neighborhood of 7ish.
I think I covered pretty much anything. But there are few things really bugged me on this car:
1. The interior lights does not turn on when you open the door and there isn't a button to turn that on or off
2. The seatbelt sound is really annoying and it won't shut up, but I guess that's what toyota tries to do to keep
s safe.
3. It's a Toyota, do I need to say more. I feel like a Kurdish refugee driving this car

, and I would strongly croos-shop those before I bought a car that would cause Ron to excommunicate me. They should offer an Accord S, with either the full boat Type R motor or less detuned. 250hp as your top engine option is weaksauce.
motor is too new to really know.
Just based on looks and reviews, this Camry finally gets us out of totally pedestrian exterior design, the interior also looks 
for a floppy 
between the front seats.
with a blown turBRO and max speed of 30 MPH on flat ground.
