Crazy how lighting conditions change the appearance of that Ocean Gem color. In the thumbnail and most of the walkaround shots, it looks blue. As in...blue. Not aqua or teal, but blue. In some of the driving shots, it looks decidedly greenish teal. When I went to see it in person, it looked greenish teal, not blue. I went there to buy the Ocean Gem, but, honestly, it looked more than a bit geriatric. It looked like it was specifically designed for the elderly. Old women, in particular. On the other hand, a Heavy Metal XLE with the optional blacked out logos parked right next to the Ocean Gem looked surprisingly menacing and a lot more high end, like a German sports sedan. Going in, I wasn't expecting to prefer Heavy Metal over Ocean Gem, but parked side by side in bright sunlight and also with shifting cloud cover it was a no-brainer. As for the road noise, that giant pano sunroof sure isn't helping things. Go without the sunroof and you'll have a better car, a roomier car, a more affordable car, and a quieter car. If you want an even quieter, plusher ride with much better fuel mileage, get the base LE mode and skip the optional sunroof. Functionally, that's the best Camry available right now.
Toyota is almost single-handedly saving sedans. I’ve seen tons of the 25s on the road already. Just wish I could comfortably get in and out of them without flaring up an old knee injury.
Never thought I would prefer the front grill on the Honda Accord better. Low profile tires on this car are form over function. They are lousy in the snow and wear out faster than conventional tires. The bumps are felt harder because there is less rubber between the tire and the wheel. Beware of panoramic sunroof's sine they tend to leek and start to creek and pop over time. Also it lessens the rigidity of the roof line. It is a good car but in my option not superior over the Accord.
Toyota needs to let the customer choose what they want on it. Not a “package deal of stuff u don’t want. Reslly disappointed in Toyota. They’re not interested in the customers
I think Toyota does a better job than most. For instance you can add all-wheel drive to any trim. You can add a sunroof to any trim. Honda is the worst. They have a take it or leave it mentally.

honda's system works in traffic jams without having to pay for a subscription to toyota traffic jam assist
That’s this year, I suspect this will change in the future

It’s disappointing that memory seat not available in the top trim

i hate that the sunroof is tied to the option packages on the XLE. I want the 360 camera and parking sensors without the stupid sunroof.
Understand, but there are far worse things in life
I love the ocean gem metallic color but the don't have that in the dealership so i got the heavy metal color its unique too,
not your regular gray
I like him

as someone who came around before someone insisted that everything be an EV, i must say this is the worst generation Camry i've ever seen.
Camry is out of your budget anyway. Stick to your GM trash, cupcake.
