Nice car! and it's red too which means the cops are more likely to nab you for speeding (or so they say). J/K

NICEEEE, Good Luck with it jafar nothing like driving a new vehicle, well at least until it gets dirty :laugh: Seriously though it is a good looking car and I am sure it is good on gas ( gas mileage has to be part of the decision when buying a car now a days for sure )

I drive like my father (under the speed limit) so no worries there lol.

7L/100km which is pretty good. It's one reason I got a new car because older ones have worse fuel economy. Also I get all the warranties and new car replacement in the insurance if I write it off :)

5731 Avery nice car . I have owned two Altima's in the past. Currently driving Ford. Most reliable car I ever owned were those two Altima's. One of them I drove past the 300k mark before selling it. The other newer model the ex-wife got in the divorce. She got the new car and the money and I got the house and my(then) 14 year old daughter. I clearly won that exchange as my daughter was worth far more than all the money or property I've ever had or owned! Trust me, if the Altima's are the same as a decade ago you will love that car. Good luck with it.. -Tyr

Not sure how anyone could get excited about a Camry. I had one as a loaner when someone backed into my daughter's Mustang and she wouldn't be seen in it.

Our lease is soon to expire on our Camry. We won't get another because they were downsized in 2012. The V6 is pretty good, we test drove a four cylinder and wondered how people drive those things. We will likely get a Avalon, which with the nice discounts is only couple grand or so more expensive that a Camry V6. Next year's Avalons will come with a back-up camera standard on all models. If you go to TrueCar.com, you will see new V6 Camrys are going for $24.3K while the Avalon is $26.7K

I tested a few cars but the camry was a more comfortable ride. In Australia they have spent a good amount of time tuning everything to Australian road conditions. I can't wait to drive it across Australia some time next year!

The newer Camrys (2012 on) are way different to the older ones. It may be a mid range car, but it is one of the better ones. I like the leather trim, reversing camera, blind spot notifications etc.. It has enough power to keep me happy too.

When she gets a license, she can! :)

Mine is a 4cylinder 2.5l 6spd auto. More than enough power for my needs. It's comfortable, has bluetooth, navigation, reversing camera, blind spot notification etc... And it's red! :)

Yup. It's pretty smooth.

The loaner I had was a 2012, red in fact. She never even looked at the interior. She has the base model O5 Mustang, cloth and plastic interior, so no its not leather and cheap electronics that would impress either one of us. :laugh:

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Toyota Camry and other models due to safety concerns (http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/news/2013/10/toyota-camry-rav4-no-longer-recommended-safety-concerns/index.htm)

Called me bragging on the car and how great it is !! Must be very good because he doesn't go overboard like that unless something really impresses him what with him being a Jarhead and all. ;)--Tyr
