Been waiting YEARS to see this review!

I still have my 2007 camry se with 255k miles...and about to take it on a road trip from KC to Toronto in a couple of days.

The camray has changed so much. Even the name!

RIP CAMRAY

The interior is actually really nice

My favourite car from that era. Own a 2010 facelift. Love it. They just do everything well. 152000 miles so far runs as sweet as when it left the showroom. Zero repairs just replacement of usual wear and tear items. Still good looking too IMO.

Had a Sky Blue xle 4 cylinder with a beige interior got many comments on the color of that car, it glowed in the sun... Great car travel RN and used it for many miles and years to contract assignments... Never left me stranded.

Love the interior design and finishes.

I guess someone finally took the time and explained to John it's 'Cam-REE' not cam-RAY... That was annoying lol

I miss the manual transmission…

Not my favorite Camry in terms of the wrapper it came in(the silver on the dash looks like a cheap wal-mart boom box). But under the hood man did they ever hit a home run with that 3.5 V6 The times Motorweek posted are slow, most of them would rip the quarter mile in the low 14's, if you could get it to hook 0-60 in the mid-high 5 second range. It has the performance of a V8 with the fuel economy of a six. Punching it at low speeds or coming out of a corner, you can kind of feel that yeah maybe we are kind of pushing the limits on how much horsepower you can actually use in a FWD car, gotta have a firm grip on the wheel.

Oh, believe me that interior was the worst, and the color came off of that silver pretty easily

Definitely a bit of a sleeper with the v6, like 90% of Camrys have the 4 cyl

the dead grass and lack of leaves on the tree lead me to believe its likely cold outside. Cold all season tires don't grip as well as in the summer. Id wager they couldn't get the tires to hook up on the track and it cost them lots of time on the clock.

Cam-Ray!!!!

0-60 for this Camry is motorweek inaccurate. It’s more like 6 seconds. 0-60 has never been motorweek’s strong point

My parents bought a new 07 back in Fall of 06. It was fine until it got wrecked in 2012. Replaced with a 2010 Matrix that still runs great with only 90k. I almost bought a 2011 SE back in 2019 but ended up with a 2007 Accord that is also amazing.

Can't say the new 2007 won me over. My wife had a 2006 SE and I had a 2007 SE for many years. Hers had less issues over the years and ended going a lot longer than mine did before we traded them in. Newer isn't always better.

It seems this generation was the only one that had somewhat of a lower reputation. I see them all the time and I actually like the interior of this generation. I have a 2012 Camry and it is just better than the other cars in its glass except maybe the Accord.

I rather for Toyota put a manual transmission from the CE I-4 in the SE V6 and the horsepower might go up slightly. The XLE top line is the one to have because of the rear reclining seats and the navigation system. And the 2.4 liter inline 4 is potent, but for a 2010 Toyota Corolla XRS with a manual transmission. Horsepower is ok but the 1zz 1.8 liter VVTi L have more punch and its rev happy for the Corolla S and Corolla XRS in the 2009-2010 model

I have a similar 2009 Toyota Camry SE V6

You chose wisely because the 2.4 of that generation burned oil

Vanilla bean ice cream.... The only thing that's going for it is consistency. American makers keep flip flopping on what they make for a mainstream car,..

A good car that I used to smoke some Civic SI and Fiesta ST whose drivers think they are driving race cars 😋

Very 80s silver interior. Only looked good on the Avalon

Yes, interior fit and finish on the '07 Camry was a huge downgrade compared to the '06.

The cheap looking interior was the biggest criticism of this generation Camry. Plus, the 4cyl engine from 2007-09 had some reported issues with oil consumption which I believe led to a class action lawsuit against Toyota.

Did he say Cam RE and not Cam RAY ??

To me, the least attractive of the last 5 or so generations of the Camry. I never liked this one for some reason even though Toyota sold a zillion of them.

The 2007 burned oil.

The outside is fine but the inside looks really cheap. Even the XLE trim looks cheap.

Toyota makes their vehicles as cheaply as possible. They have been for years.
