I remember back in 2018 when they redesigned the Camry. I absolutely loved it and thought that it gave a Camry a sportier appearance. Prior to that I never really cared about Camrys. For 2025 model year I think they pulled it off again, raising the bar once again. I hope there's a 2025 Camry Nightshade edition or GR Camry 😊

My 6 year old is convinced the Toyota Camry is the world's fastest car. Every race track we go to, the Camry is used as a pace car, last month we went to Sonoma Raceway for the Velocity Invitational, there was Lewis Hamilton's 2008 Championship McLaren being lead around Sonoma Raceway by a Toyota Camry before shattering the track record. Then there's Ford unveiling the Ford GT Mk IV, guess what car was leading the Mk IV onto the track? The Toyota Camry! Toyota does an excellent job of projecting an image for the Camry, by signing an agreement with many race tracks to used the Camry as either the pace car, leading car, safety car, etc...because it works on my 6 year old.

I hate that they discontinued the Avalon. My Avalon lasted more than 20 years, never got any repair the whole time I owned it . The comfort it provided was equal to a Lexus on a half price I paid for. It died in a major accident car crash. So many good memories and happy moments having that car. And it saved my life. A neglected driver crossed the stop side and crashed into my car pushing it with me inside to a house. The car is all smoky and smashed, I passed out a few second but not injured. I replaced it with a new Camry 2019. It's a good car but not to compare with my Avalon. I feel like the Camry body is not strong enough to protect driver and passengers in a collision
