An OG here. I have a black 2020 model. Aside from the boy racer rear wing and the problematic low front air dam, this is the most grownup car I’ve ever owned. Absolutely thrilled with it. 32mpg at 85mph all day long. Has excellent passing power. Excellent road car for Nana and me. I just ask, if anyone sees a couple of old folks hauling ass down the interstate, kindly move outta of our way.
My wife and I bought the Avalon TRD in 2020, and oh boy the looks you get when you step on the gas pedal. Unfortunately and fortunately for me the Avalon is discontinued, but that just means the TRD model will be a rare bird.
32mpg, more than my 1.6 cla with 120 hp lol :)
@@fathercadi I like the avalon :)
There's no replacement for displacement. Sadly the beloved bread & butter civic sport went to a 1 5 turbo in 2016. Guess they believe my friend who says the smaller the better for mileage ..
@@rstuff1605 Absolutely right! I bought the TRD to replace a Yaris. The reason was.... While the Yaris got excellent mileage around town, it sucked on the interstate. I live in the Ozarks, many elevation changes. Pulling hills with A/C required 3500 to 4000 rpm to maintain momentum. Anyhow, my TRD average combo driving for 25K miles has been 28.3 mpg. And I drive rather aggressively. My only complaint is the frontend paint seems to chip easily. They just don't make paint that can standup to the debris from tailgating folks. Oddly, all my vehicles have weak paint...LOL
I hate how right you are about this camry. I just turned 40 but been eyeing this camry for awhile😆 it still turns my head every time I see it on the road
Glad you recommend it to old guys like me
I bought mine a year ago and am not disappointed at all. I have had zero issues with it and its very fun to drive:)
as long as you are a fan, everything is ok
Did you do any add ons? (Like jbl speakers) extra ports or anything if so do you have a problem with the jbl upgrade/ how’s your sound quality
9:27 WOW does it really sound ????
I love that you say "damper" and not "dampener". One's for cars and one's for garden hoses! :)
You'll surely get more garage space in the afterlife.
something that dampens is called a dampener lmao

'Stiffness is so important'
Thank you, Sarah
Yep, I get stiff every time I watch one of her videos!😉
I watch just to listen to your witty, funny, very entertaining talk and your excellent critiques. You aren't bad looking either. That's a understatement. Thank you.
I have not done a baseline dyno but, your exhaust comment made me realized how hard it is to find journalists who know their beans inside out. Suscribed and looking forward to follow your content further.
Thank you Sarah as a mechanic I started to hate all cars you make it very fun
Sarah I love you. ❤️ your way of delivering it with enthusiasm and humor comes from a true enthusiast like you
A neat car! Yes, stiffness is important, especially in the corners, and on twisty roads. Thanks Sarah, another excellent review!
The cam timing is actually VVT-iW allowing the engine to run in a modified Atkinson Cycle mode at low RPM. It also has both direct and port injection (D4S)
On a recent trip I set cruise for 97kph (60mph) and got 42 MPG US or 5.6L/100km. That’s over 620 miles (1000km) on a full tank. I love my V6 XSE though for the better creature comforts.
I just got home from a medical visit and here you are! Great review, I enjoy you enjoying a vehicle.
SO freakin knowledgeable. Love how enlightening your videos are. Especially the more in depth details.
0:01, "Stiffness is important", u said the truth, I totaly agree.
Bottom bell jeans or whatever they’re called should make a comeback. You look great Sarah
Great review! I appreciate the prep you put into each review. Very thorough! Also those pants are just rad! Cheers!
I watched your video on the gr86 and was amazed at how detailed you were. On top of that, you are hilarious which made the video more enjoyable. Easily the best car reviewer on youtube
Great review from someone who owns the same exact car you reviewed. I love mine lots and im glad you enjoyed your time with it :D
0:13 -- "I'm not a real scientist. This is a lab coat I bought on Amazon for like $15." *WHAT?!!* I feel like I've been LIED TO!! 😏🤣
Lol 😂
Great review Sarah, your unique doing all your reviews
Great informative videos! Always a pleasure to watch 🙂
needs to be offered as a manual!

Sarah, thanks for brightening up the day, your reviews are hilarious, keep it up
Excellent video Sarah! As they all are! Huge thank you.
You are delightful, real and fun to watch
Great review Sarah👍👍 Love the way your mind works😏 Love your sense of humor🤡🥳
Just discovered you. You're awesome. Love your personality and review! Subscribed
such a stellar review! keep it up!
Thank you for an in depth review Sarah! It seems that they took the free reign transmission programming from the Tacoma and applied it here. It takes getting used to.
The hardest working content creator on TH-cam 😊❤️ much respect ✊
I thought there was a Toyota spoiler alert in there then! 🤔
FACTS 👏 👏!
9:27 WOW does it really sound ????
💯
I drive a 2001 LE 4 inline cylinder with 226k miles. I was considering getting one of these but now as I see the GR Corolla releasing, once I graduate and have money I think I am going for that GR. Though these Camry's are sick looking now. Mine as it is it does look sporty with the factory little spoiler which has the 3rd brake light and a sun/moon roof so I always ride with it tilted so it looks sporty. Has some mild issues but still runs so smooth. I do love it.
I have watch your videos for a long time and haven't subscribed, but today Sarah i have, my reason is that your pants matched the TuRDS interior. Your videos are so entertaining and top notch on the techs of what the manufacturers put in there vehicles. TURDS is Toyota underated Racing Technology.
Great video as usual, that exhaust sounds pretty nice!
I hope to see you check out the Forte GT Manual some time, I have a '21 and I love it.
i am a person of Earth.. when studio Sarah went to field Sarah for the PFFfff ! Bean Score, i was left in the dust. Great switch up that caught me sleeping.
That car sounds like a Lexus V8. My wife loves the red accents and the blue. Impressive car for sure.
I too think its a great value, well engineered, affordable, fun-ish to drive and own and its stiff too. Wireless charger is a ding but maybe that can be added from the parts bin. Cute outfit.
Thanks Sarah for another great video. Your extreme talent and skill is a gift from above. Love you and all what you do. btw, Stiffness IS important. I am proud to say i have followed your channel from day one. Bless you and stay Safe.
In the seat of her pants, so glad to hear that Sarah has a healthy boyfriend. 🤣
I have been looking and this one seems like one to consider. Fabulous review and I love the nails...!
I owned a 2005 Malibu in my keg stand days. That car was a tank!
I learned a whole bunch about this TRD (coming from a 2017 TRD Taco) treatment in a Camry. Thanks a whole bunch. I rock a 2022 Corolla Hatch with a 6M transmission (old school, old Phart driver) and I’m super happy with this vehicle. Warmest thanks for the knowledge. Cheers and Thanks!!
Sarah, once again, a terrific and thorough review of the car , unlike anybody else out there!! You are single-handedly making a fashion statement by bringing back The Bell bottomed pants of the late 60s !! WOW: 4.6 Penguins !! 5 Cookies. Although this may not be a car for me, it sure does represent to be a True Value for the $$$. Thanks for the video and another opportunity to see you in that Lab coat and Black Glasses. You are the Best Lab Technician on the "Inter-Web".
Have a 2020 in the garage. You have to swap the tail lights. Huge housings that don't light up hardly unless you put the better version tail lights on it. I agree on the supercharger.
LED taillights should never only be on upper trim levels in any car. The tail/brake light is too small for such large assemblies, but still better than my wife's '17 Camry. Also, I personally dislike the trend of using white needles on white gauges, but here they did the same in red - just a form of brutalism.
I was like... that engine sounds like the 3.5 V6 in the Lotus Evora/Emira... and it is a 2GR variation. The Evora has the 2GR-FE. These are really nice sounding engines. First time I actually heard it coming out of a Toyota.
Actually would love for you to review the Evora GT if you can get your hands on one... if not an Emira after it's hit the streets later this year.
I've been looking for a new car and now am really interested in this. It wasn't on my radar so thanks for the awesome review. I even have the right t-shirt for it. It says "I'm a snowboarding grandpa. That's like a regular grandpa only much cooler"
Thank for being so through. Most informative reviews out there. So glad to see Toyota has the dual injection system that will keep carbon build up to a minimum. Now on the bean score, we talking jellybeans? That would go along with the eye candy theme.
Excellent work on this review.
I kept thinking it was a honda because of the front end, another great car review, wish other reviewers put in this much effort
I never thought I would say these words, but I may have to check out this Camry. Phenomenal value, incredible mileage for a big V6, and a little bit of fun to drive. Sure, I would rather have a Lexus IS 350, but that is like $20k more!
Great review! Still love my 2020 TRD.
I got my metalic black trd camry at the beginning of this month n I love it so much fun to drive n u don't see them all over the road like most cars
That opener! 🔥🔥 truth!
Been waiting for this one! Have been considering the TRD, Sonata N Line, and Kia K5 GT Appreciate the insight!
Cross the Camry off your list lol. A k5 sonata or accord are better vehicles period
Kia and Hyundai provide a lot of car for the money, but their ongoing engine reliability problems would keep me from purchasing them. Their oil consumption problems don't seem to be going away, either.
@@competitiveautomotive5457 Yeah it seems to be the general consensus. Basically narrowed down to either the K5, Sonata, or Elantra. The Accord just ain't for me.
Those Camry look sick. Great video Sarah
Another great review. Thanks Sarah. I like that u take off the engine covers
Stiffness is important.🐎🐎🐧🐧👍
It's nice that these type of models are still alive in the (not ultra rich client) car world
Hey my early morning tarot reading chams spelled out to me i have to bingewatch your videos today . I agreed . Stay awesome . Snipe on. 🤩
great review.. love the styling.. now crack on and finish the ranger.. 😋
Love your reviews and channel Sarah! Great car...
What's the chance you can do a review on the Kia Stinger GT2?
You will love it..
Love your channel Sarah ❤️ much love to you ❤️
It is still nice to see that Toyota welds together the galvanized exhaust parts. Blowing off the galvanizing and guaranteeing rust, when the could coat/spray those parts SO easily to prevent rust.
The exhaust is all stainless steel. What exhaust parts did you see that were galvanized?
@@tonydavis190 If that's all stainless, then it was just discoloration I saw at the welds. Toyota exhausts used to rot out in places like the muffler intake and output pipes, which were welded to the muffler itself after the pieces were galvanized. Blowing off the galvanizing.
you are the best car reviewer .
“…adds stiffness to the seat of your pants…” 2:52 …then the expression. I cried 😂
loved the review!!
Your innuendos are on FIRE 🔥😬👍🏻
STIFFNESS IS VERY IMPORTANT.. FANTASTIC JOB SARAH... I MYSELF LIKE TOYOTAS ..
I had those same tires on my Fusion Sport. I did some research and they were the best tire for sports sedans.
That interior looks great!
I really like your car reviews, plus love the way you present the material you are covering. Thanks for making me chuckle a few times in all of your reviews. I always finish watching your videos with a smile. Keep up the great reviews, you are awesome!
Maybe the best car reviewer. Nice work
Love the car and I love your videos! Finally a real car, not a electric drill.
I just got a 2018 Camry and I don't see any differences between these and the 2020s.
Over 40 miles to the gallon always feelsgoodman.
I would have chosen the TRD, but Toyota left out some interior comfort features and Cabin noise reduction of the TRD therefore I selected the Camry XSE V6. Too bad they just did not make an XSE -TRD version. Meaning incorporate the TRD components into the XSE. I'm getting the 2023 Camry XSE V6 which is expected to be the last year Toyota will utilize the V6. Toyota intends to discontinue the 3.5L V6 in 2024 only offering the i4, i4 Turbos, and Hybrids. Nice job pointing out the mechanical essentials on the TRD and for us to inform Shop Mechanic where to hoist/ lift points as not to damage the car.
I realize you do the Sporty versions. I bought my wife a 2022 Honda Civic Touring, but you covered the Si and/or Type R. I would have been ecstatic had you reviewed the Camry XSE V6.
Watching this episode I wanted to share I am making homemade taquitos. Sarah, your show has made it into my kitchen. These taquitos are going to be delicious.
way back in the early 2000's when I was selling Toyota's. There was a lot of interest for the upcoming sport model Camry. after the facelift. Plenty of late 30's guys asking after it lol
I have one of those sport model: a black stick shift 1999 Camry TRD. I was so surprised to see a Toyota 'race' car on the dealer's lot and I bought it for 27k!
Another fun, informative and entertaining car review. Thanks for sharing your expertise.
Happy Saturday night Sarah. From reading recent comments it would seem that belated birthday wishes were in order, Sounds like you put in the time AGAIN and got to know this car. Clear comprehensive concise and silly. Who could ask for a better review?
Great job Kid!
Your awesome and hilarious! I loved this video, very informative and I died of laughing.. Keep up the great work 💅. Much love.
Hey Sarah, that’s great the TRD is more than just a sticker and some badging as one could almost let that slide on the Corolla Camry and Avalon but I’m glad Toyota didn’t they really want that option to mean something. I don’t know how long TRD has been a factory option I had a 2000 tundra with TRD off-road and I don’t remember the T100 being available in TRD but I could be wrong. So great you got a lift reading about the upgrades on the car is one thing but being able to point them out in a video takes it to a whole new level especially the way you do it. have a great one as always🐧🐧🐧👍
The nerdly loud laugh you incited after the description 🤣 😂 😆 😄 😅... nice😊
I think the term "adolescent parents" works🤣.
Sarah: chuckle for you with today's experience . My old MINI started smoking and smelling today. I thought "this is it. It's on fire and the demise will be quick". Got my fire extinguisher out to put out the engine fire and under the hood was about a pound and a half of peanuts. 🐿
Great video and review! Very funny!! 😉👍😎🏴
On the shifter ............ nailed it! 11:02
The exhaust tunnel and components add wight to the car for sure .lol nice and heavy, thanks BigAl California.
This is a kind of Camry I'd buy. Though I feel this urge after watching almost every Sarah's review. Also blue is my favourite colour, and this kind of blue looks cool, especially with the black rims.
I like the red trim
Love your reviews, glad you shoe the mechanics of the cars, wish they were longer... and discussing better or worse choices in the segment. Thank Sarah.
When you are you gonna do a review on AWD Camry? I would be quite interested on your input. Coming from 2020 FWD to 2022 AWD; there's huge difference.
Yes, stiffness is important. Other than the exhaust, this is more a kit of TRD's all over. Sounds like it's faster than it is...
That color is awesome! Very periwinkle like.
This lady is sharp, great presentation
Glad I found you. Not irritating, unlike Supercar Blondie. New fan. Subbed.
Hood struts causes added weight. I was expecting them to throw in a fiberglass prop rod that rides in the trunk to enhance balance.
@Sarah -n- Tuned .. your TRD review deserves a 'stiff-icate' award for the amount of innuendo !!!
A couple months ago I bought a 2020 Toyota Camry SE Nightshade and wanted a TRD really bad but couldn't afford it so I figured I'd see what I thought of The Camry in general and maybe consider buying a TRD in the future. I LOVE my Camry and am defintley gonna snatch up a TRD when I can afford it if they're still available or if they lower down in price
That exhaust sounds great to me.
The flares are nice.
Loved the review.
Sarah, can you please review Honda Accord 2022 and Honda Civic 2022.
Would love to hear your thoughts about them.
And how this Camry stacks against Accord?
I absolutely love the TRD Camry
Lol I should’ve saved my comments later in the video you talk about what I was thinking Sarah on the lotus Evora and the supercharger….😜🌮🌮
Soon you do review at corolla gr😍 This was very much fun review too!😎
