@@yournightmare9999 I got a fully loaded 2009 Camry XLE v6 in 2023 with under 100k miles right around 10k and it's still a really nice car I'd take it over a lot of new cars out there.
I've been driving a 2022 sport touring Civic back and forth between Orange county and Riverside over the Ortega highway. About 30 mi of switchbacks and paper clips. I just traded it for a Camry se. Went over that mountain last weekend and OMG. The Camry is not a canyon Carver. It was very comfortable. Especially at lower speeds.
I put a down payment on a 25 X LE, fully loaded and with taxes and all the fees. It's 44,000 and change. I only test drove the LE so I might not even buy it once I sit in it And test drive it. I got to see but it's mine If I want it. Not ready till mid october 😢
Hi! I'd have to drive them too, but from my experience, there won't be any major differences in terms of handling and feel. The XSE may have a slightly stiffer ride, but in the grand scheme of things it won't be much different from the XLE.
Civic is nowhere near this car because the Camry is a class above (test drove them both by the way) They both have great interior quality Civic is more agile because of the shorter wheelbase but in terms of smoothness, sound insulation, and overall comfort this way better My advice get the Civic if you mostly drive in the city, get the Camry if you do a lot of highway driving If you are planning to buy one of them test drive them both and if you can do the test driving back to back can’t go wrong with either of them
I have been a Honda man forever. Usually the accord, but the last 2 generations You feel like you're trapped in there.. the doors And dashboard come up way too high before the windows start. I'm grieving because before I buy a 25 Camry, I'm selling my 14 accord to my son and I'm going to miss it. I'm grieving.😢
Thanks for the video. I'm curious how you compare the drive quality and handling of the new Camry Hybrid with the Honda Accord Hybrid? You mentioned in your 2023 video on the Accord the vehicle was an A+ and two steps above the Toyota/Mazda equivalents (of their previous generation). What about now? And would you be able to take that deep curve at the same or higher speed in the Accord without squealing the tires? Thanks.
I'd say they are similar, but the Accord Touring does feel more luxurious. I also think the Honda has more engaging handling and more cornering capabilities.
There are some honest dealerships. My dealer did not add anything. Did not mark it up. In fact i got $2.455 off the MSRP. Keep looking. Or use a service.
Definitely overpriced but what isnt? Not really liking the new Camry. To clarify, theres more that I don't like about it then I do. Thanks for the review however!
I agree, they are! I think power wise at least from a roll, it's virtually the same acceleration, but this Camry has more instant response. This car traps similar speeds as the V6 would in the 1/4 mile.
For 44k I rather buy the BMW 3 series or Audi A4. More power, sporty and luxurious car. It’s insane that the price jump so high right now… What’s the markup for, there’s no more pandemic or anything anymore or any shortage.
Great review. What is the color of that interior? I put a down payment on a 25 Camry XLE, wind chill pearl on the outside and light gray interior on the inside. Mine fully loaded out The door is 44,327.00. I guess that's in the ballpark. I only test drove the LE And although I love the car, I'm not happy with this seat. So after checking this car out and test driving it, I don't even have to take it. I will be fully refunded if I don't want the car. It's not ready until october though.😢

Look up the differences between CVT and eCVT. eCVT's are more reliable as there is no belt or chain to break.

Even CVTs are now reliable it’s just that people can’t maintain their vehicles is the main issue
