I'll pass on the Solara. I do like that other version of the Camry much more than the NA version, though.

That's the taiwanese version of camry- which is also the version of camry to be sold in china as well.

I believe all Asian (except Japan- which will build US version)/Oceania camry will look like that.

That version of camry comes with active HID, active cruise Control, radar control pre-safe system (what ever that mean).

In fact is has more euqipment than ES350 on the top of line V6 model. It also comes with rear seat entertainment control, rear massage seat, and cooler compartment.

That non-US Camry looks bloated. I'm probably the only one who prefers the US version. The interior's a lot nicer, though.

That gray Camry doesn't look too bad but the front end still looks like

BTW, the refreshed Solara looks uglier then ever.

The Solara update makes the front end too damn big. In that picture it looks like a minivan.

Didn't like the new camry, don't like this...

I thought toyota was going to make a run at the big three, but their recent designed might put them back to #4....

their recent quality issue might hurt them, but their design won't.

remember people bought tons of last gen camrys and corollas. people really don't care about design.
