Replying to: kdhspyder (Aug 16, 2006 11:58 am) People like to say maybe they will drive out in the wilderness on a 2 lane unlit road at 75 MPH at 2 am and want or "need" super bright lights, but the reality is, most just want to show off since Xenon lights = "BLING." You probably won't like having your fancy Xenons stolen and put on other Camrys who's owners didn't get they option when they purchased the car, but want to stick them on their car anyway. See Maxima owners and their high insurance rates due to frequently stolen Xenon headlights. Xenon headlights are probably as big or bigger of a theft magnet as fancy aftermarket rims and stereos.

Replying to: bigdaveinomaha (Aug 16, 2006 7:05 pm) The belief that your Xenons can't be stolen because you live in too nice of a neighborhood for the possibility isn't a valid one. Do you plan to always leave the car parked in your garage, never park at malls and airports or anywhere else that isn't as nice of a neighborhood as yours?

Replying to: bigdaveinomaha (Aug 17, 2006 5:44 am) I wish the moon roof was optional on the XLE Camry. I want the extra headroom. It used to be. No more. Toyota has adopted the policy common in old-style coffee shop restaurants: "Please, No Substitutions!" For the great middle class, which is their target market, this strategy is immensely successful. But for people who want it "their way," Toyota is the wrong car company. In a few years, Xenon headlights will be available on Camrys. But by then, high end cars will include something else that Toyota won't offer. |

Replying to: bigdaveinomaha (Aug 16, 2006 5:55 am) 1) ebony interior: high quality leather, looks lovely. 2) 18" bright-polished aluminum wheels with W speed rated tires, again, look lovely. 3) halogen instead of Xenon headlamps but the beam configuration (which determines the overall illumination pattern of the lighting fixture) is again excellent. With the fogs on, they are almost indistinguishable from Xenons but WITHOUT the theft problem. And, of course, there is that 303 HP engine with 323 foot-pounds of torque and that intoxicating exhaust note . . . simply exhilarating! Go check it out. You'll be surprised. It certainly represents a refreshing alternative to the bland Camry with the poor interior, small wheels and so-so lights. Not to mention the six cylinder engine . . . |

I read the whole "toyota camry woes" forum. It is quite scary the way people wrote the problems. Are you guys (with 4 cyl camry) happy with your purchase?
