#13 of 5260 Camry is very distinct by badgerfan Sep 30, 2004 (10:03 am)
No other manufacturer is able to consistently expose so much tailpipe as Toyota. They've been doing it on all three of the last generations of Camry, and it seems to be getting lower and lower with each iteration. I guess this must be a much in demand styling feature!   Seriously I can't understand why they haven't been able to tuck it up somewhere. With Toyota's supposed attention to detail, it seems this would be a trivial problem to solve, but it seems to get no attention, or it would have been fixed at least 5-6 years ago.

Replying to: badgerfan (Sep 30, 2004 10:03 am) Someone posted on this earlier. S/he had asked his/her service manager about it, and the guy said that it's just easier and cheaper for Toyota to do it that way, and not thread the exhaust pipe over the rear axle.   Too bad, because I agree that it looks stupid.

Most people dont notice/care. It has never been an issue on our 2002 Camry.   ~alpha Replies to this message: badgerfan (Oct 01, 2004 8:51 am)

Replying to: alpha01 (Sep 30, 2004 6:33 pm) Well, even my wife, who is not an automobile enthusiast at all, noticed it when we were following a Camry last year. Some of them seem to hang much lower than others and this one was a particular low hanger, probably due some assembly or manufacturing variations, but she asked me "What was with the exhaust pipe on that car?" (with no prompting from me).

That exhaust position allows more space inside the car, too. That's how Toyota gets a full size spare and a 17 cu. ft. trunk, while the Accord has a doughnut and only 14 cu. ft. Replies to this message: ian721 (Oct 01, 2004 11:35 am)

Replying to: toycash (Oct 01, 2004 10:24 am) Really? Because with all that space between the pipe and the underbody you could expand the trunk another 7 or 8 cu. ft. if you wanted. And it wouldn't be that hard to fit the pipe under the axle even with the 17 cu ft trunk.
#19 of 5260 Camry wagon ? by daniels2 Oct 02, 2004 (11:10 am)
I wonder if Toy will ever bring back the Camry wagon? We have a 2002 sedan and have been looking at wagons for a 2nd car. With Camry's legendary reliability, comfort and just plain good looks, I'd seriously consider waiting if Toyota did decide to make a wagon. Scott

I think its unlikely that Toyota will bring back the Camry wagon with the next generation. Most people today usually upgrade from sedan to SUV/Minivan for extra space, not enough interest in wagons for Toyota to even consider it. Then again, the matrix is like a wagon.

#21 of 5260 Camry wagon by danielj6 Oct 02, 2004 (2:09 pm)
If Toyota revives the wagon, that'll be my next car. There's a market for a sport wagon of sorts. Something to compete with Subaru's Outback, Dodge's Magnum, Volvo and BMW.   I believe that The Camry wagon was discontinued around 1996 or so. It was a handsome vehicle indeed. I'll be standing in line to get one, although I'm really doing well with my Corolla. I prefer a wagon over a sedan.   It seems to me that Toyota may be hesitant to reintroduce the wagon as it may overshadow the Highlander, high wagon/suv combo.

#22 of 5260 If you really want a wagon, by bklynguy Oct 02, 2004 (2:16 pm)
I would go for the Subaru Outback. The interior is really nice.
