My wife and I test drove a 2018 Honda Accord...we bought a 2018 Camry XSE. We couldn't be happier. Wish we would've got the V6 but she wanted the 4 cylinder. I'm not gonna argue with her...couch isn't that comfortable.
TJ Shah I have a 2018 se with the four cylinder and perfect conditions with the wind to my back I have gotten 42 mpg in my normal commute I get 36 with eco turned off
I'm trying to decide between the 2019 Honda accord sport and camry se with options. Leaning towards camry but have been told the seats aren't comfortable on long drives. And the headrest is too forward and can't adjust it to go back. After owning jt for a while how's the seat comfort to you overall? And would you still recommend the camry
I am thrilled to see a video that so thoroughly explains the 2018 Camary SE! I just bought one yesterday and I got the feeling that my sales person didn’t understand all that it could do. I am a 70+ year old that is not tech savvy and I was more confused after my salespersons explanation than if I’d just read the manual and did it myself. I totally got all that you described and now am happy with my decision to get this car! I can’t thank you enough!
@@Oooo-ms9df The 8-speed wasn't very smooth. Apparently it's the nature of that type of automatic. I also didn't like when I'd mash the gas to pass or an emergency situation.. it took way too long to find the right gear for the most power. There's plenty of complaints online.
Please note that the 41mpg highway mpg is only on the L version (base model) and this SE is a higher trim level. The SE gets up to 39mpg on the highway and 28mpg in the city.
I love how this car is so simple all around, I love how they moved the intake manifold up front, and air filter seems easy to replace, and I do like that headlights aren't separated from the hood, now a days lot of cars separate head lights from the hood, thank you Toyota for keeping it simple
Wow! You really made me walk to my Camry to test it out! You even got me talking directly at my key fob and the front Toyota emblem. Then I proceeded to yell at it cause I thought I did something wrong. 🤣🤣🤣I can't believe I fell for it. You got me
I just bought a 2018 Toyota Camry and i love it. I have been a customer of toyota since 1990 and this car is by far the best camry ever. Oh ! i forgot to mention it fast too!
HowToCarGuy First of all, if anything that grabs my eye about a car, is the grill, specially the one that comes all the way down, so to me lexus is the prettiest car ever made in mankond. here they updated the grill to make it look unique, I like it. I noticed Toyota is going for a more Swirl approach for their interior dashboard, as you pointed out, which is something that appeals to me to.
Great review! Lots of laughs! Also I'm loving my 2018 Camry SE, its got the technology and convenience packages, great fuel economy, excellent ride/road manners, comfortable on long trips, and 203 HP is plenty for me! Safe driving.
this is around the 8th video ive watched on se and yours is by far the most detailed..especially that hood pop. even the saleman didn't show me that . nice site man!
I bought the 2018 SE Camry with sunroof in Ruby flare color I love love love love love love love love love my car bought it for my birthday in December
This 2018 Camry, it really reminds me of the 1997-2001 and 2007-2011 Camry models put together. I see such similarities in both. Headlights, grill and overall sportiness of the 07-11 se models. The long tail lights and sharp curves are like the 97-01 models(especially when you look at the rear from a side angle) It's as if they took 2 of their best generations and put them together into what we see here. Very good review sir, informative with a side of comedy.
I was thinking bout getting the Toyota chr but with limited back seat space and poor rear visibility I think I'm gonna be happy with this new Camry 😁😁😁
One Thing you didnt tell people SE doesn't come with all these standard features you would have to get the Convenience package to get the Push Start and Smart key Access
Great job! Your presentation was very informative and the delivery was excellent. Mid State should be pleased with your work. Dealerships should use this video to train sales personnel. The 2018 Camry is loaded with features that beat the competition. The XSE has an interior air filtration system to keep the air clean and minimize odors. The ride is smooth and the interior noise is very quiet.
Didn't fool me this with the hood release trick. First new car I bought after college was a 1996 Camry. I thought that was the best looking Camry Toyota ever made, until now.
I drive a 2018 Toyota Camry SE and love it, but when i hit the gas it’s like it takes a bit to go up is that normal in this cars or it might be a problem?
Definitely a lag from the jump.. I recently purchased a pristine/like new used 2018 Camry and the salesman informed me during the test drive this was normal. Definitely an odd feeling/shifting transmission.. Hoping for many many years of longevity 🤞🏻
I have a 2019 SE, but I think the 2015 was the best (only two I've driven) I went in to buy my second used SE, came out brand new four hours later! Saying "What just happened?"......it was the dashboard!!!!!
Just bought a silver 18 se Love it! Only one complaint ...the shiny trim on the along dashboard/ console reflects on the glass / side view mirrors . Camry > accord
I got this exact model and color (with the convenience package) just yesterday. I know it's early, but I do love it. I've had my eye on this Camry for almost a year now. I was driving a 2006 Camry LE prior and the upgrade was awesome to feel. This video helped me solidify my decision! Thanks!
AWESOME! Thank you for the compliment and I am so glad you enjoyed the video! Thank you for subscribing and I look forward to making more content for you! Have a wonderful day. Brock
@@HowToCarGuy 2018 was one of the worst Camry years with regards to reliability. The previous 2 generations are more reliable. Aesthetically, perhaps. Mechanically, No way Jose
Good review. One bummer on the new Camry I4 is they don't come with integrated navigation (but use your phone's data plan and Entune navigation app), you'll have to opt-in for the V6 models. I think that's a bad idea, as now you have to pay more money on your phone plan to get an unlimitted data.
I got mine 6 months ago and I love it. A great car to have. I drove from Annapolis MD to Canton Ohio and still had more than a 1/4 tank of gas. When u get on the highway it's like a blast off. Thelma gets u there quickly lol
I bought one last month. Nice car, but why the hell does it not come with a garage door opener button lol..it should come standard with every car!! Also, no heated seats, moonroof, or gps kinda sucks
You forgot to mention that this Camry SE has the convenience and bsm packsge which allow blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, smart keyless entry, backup camera trajectory lines, auto dimming rear view mirror and push button start. If you don’t have those packages then you’ll have a standard key fob with manual key to start the car and no blind spot or trajectory lines or dimming mirror.
TEE HEE!!! GOTCHA! Thank you so much for the positive feedback and for coming back! I'll keep them coming just for you, my friend! Have a great day! Brock
Ever every view I'm learning more about my 18 Toyota Camry SE per my 20-year-old son. Cruise. Intuitive adjustable rear distancing. Heat/ AC. Many choices. Yeah, beefy little 2.5L And I lock your socks too.
Bought a 2019 SE... The 4cly in mountains even with interstate driving avg 31.8mpg. The other complaint would be the infotainment system... vs Chevy's... Lacking . Overall we like it. Had the windows all tinted with strip on front, added XM radio and heated seats
I have the 2017 SE and by the end of the week or should be in the 2018 I'm very excited! I wouldn't mind the xse but with it comes a large price tag that I'd rather not indulge in. Who knows maybe I will give in. But the SE is the best bang for your buck.
I had mine delivered last week. The looks are awesome. Looks like a car that's twice the price. My biggest issue is that the base SE doesn't have Sirius. It's 2018. I didn't realize they made cars anymore that aren't satellite ready. Big time bummer. If I had bought it off the lot instead of having it delivered, I would've gone with the next level up. Speaking of the stereo, Entune sucks. Apple Car Play would've been a better move. You can use the Scout navigation, if you plug it in or use Bluetooth, start the Entune app, start a different Scout App, and you're okay with it using phone data's I just use Google maps on my phone instead. Lastly, it's more powerful and drives well, but it's not inspiring. I loved the get up of my 2005 Avalon more. But, it's a beautiful car, gets 34+ mpg for me so far, and it's out the door for around $26k. Not bad.
+Kevin Allen Excellent feedback! I really appreciate your critique and I have to say that I agree with you on those points. I think Toyota is pretty behind in those areas and those areas just happen to be super important. Thanks again for the contribution. Brock Frady
Did you cover the possibility of user changing burned out headlights? This has been a problem for a few years with some Toyotas which expect you to drive in the dark until you can get to a dealer. Which 2018 Camry models offer/include LED headlights?
Just bought one couple weeks ago and mine did not come with a push button start or the door handle unlock. Should not have purchased. Regretting it now but it was $200 a month cheaper than the GS I had on Lease as I needed to save some money but didn't want to buy used. Transmission is horrible. If you hit the break to slow and hit the accelerator a little hard you get this jolt as it tries to find the gear. All and all you get what you pay for and some times even less I did get swayed by the appearance though. It is a pretty sharp looking car on the outside
Hi , saw the entire video and very surprise to see the difference between my 2018 se and yours , on the trunk mine doesn’t have that button, the key is different too , mine has the actual key is not push button, maybe that’s why , and the handles doesn’t open by pressing the the door handle , by the way the hood thing was awesome, I did believed it for a second hahaha, the first gear on the transmission sucks though is very noticeable Thanks for your time.
It looks like you had some optional upgrades on this model. Can you elaborate exactly which ones? I am pretty sure the key fob system, and the rear camera grid lines are not standard on the SE for 2018.
I believe those are actually standard for the SE model. I checked the dealerships' website and they still have them same car in stock and here's the optional equipment list: Carpet Mats $299 Phone Cable & Charge Package $69Includes:High Output 12W Dual USB Car Charger1 Micro USB to USB Cable in One Meter Length1 Apple MFi Certified Lightning to USB Cable inOne Meter Length1 Apple MFi Certified Lightning to USB Cable inTwo Meters Length 6-Gallons of Gas $0 Southeast Toyota Distributor Plus $0Certified Technician 46 Point Final QualityInspectionDigital Picture Asset Program Clear Paint Protection - Door Package $199Includes:Door CupsDoor Edge GuardsRear Bumper Protector 50 State Emissions $0

Hi , saw the entire video and very surprise to see the difference between my 2018 se and yours , on the trunk mine doesn’t have that button, the key is different too , mine has the actual key is not push button, maybe that’s why , and the handles doesn’t open by pressing the the door handle , by the way the hood thing was awesome, I did believed it for a second hahaha, the first gear on the transmission sucks though is very noticeable
Thanks for your time.
It looks like you had some optional upgrades on this model. Can you elaborate exactly which ones? I am pretty sure the key fob system, and the rear camera grid lines are not standard on the SE for 2018.
I believe those are actually standard for the SE model. I checked the dealerships' website and they still have them same car in stock and here's the optional equipment list:
