17.5 MPG on regular in all-city driving.
Car definitely shifts gears better (faster with almost no slip/lag) when filled with 89 or 91 octane (just as the manual says it will).
Never felt underpowered in this car, even with passengers.

One more tank:
381 miles
12.23 gallons
= 31.18 mpg
95% highway, total ODO now at about 1200 miles.
 
Trip computer now reading about 35 mpg for this tank, 95% highway, 65 to 70 mph. It is breaking in well, and mileage is getting better and better!

Must be nice
 
I sit in bumper to bumper traffic 40+ miles each way to work and my most recent fill up 400 miles put me around 23 mpg on my 2007 SE V6. Although, when I get some open road, I open it up so who knows.

The one tank I got 26 mpg I sat in traffic due to a wreck for about 30 minutes which definitely lowered my mileage. For the most part when I am on the highway it is clear sailing for all 55 miles.

I averaged a little over 18 this winter in mine and pretty much all city driving (although I do have 4-5 miles of my commute at 40-45 mph. What's your highway mileage? I'm only getting about 26 at steady 70-75 mpg cruising.
 
I have only used regular so far but will be going on a 2000+ mile round trip this summer and plan to use regular one way and premium coming back to see what the difference is.

About 20 cents per gallon. The performance advantage of premium grade gasoline will vary from imaginary to imperceptible. If you're traveling from the west or east coasts toward the Continental Divide, the trip back home will yield slightly improved fuel economy. Because of using premium grade gasoline? No - it's because you'll be going net downhill on the return trip.
 
(Have a safe, enjoyable trip with your family - I'm jealous. )

I have read many posts saying mileage increased with premium but I suspect it won't be enough to offset the $.20 increase.
 
I will be going from Indiana across I-80 to New Jersey, then up the Hudson River valley and over to New Hampshire, back across Mass and NY to Niagara Falls then back thru Canada and Michigan. Lots of driving (we've done it before but not for about 15 years) but we have so many people and things to stop and see along the way, flying is not an option.
 
Look for my report in August

More 2007 Camry V6 XLE mileage numbers.. by faldoc

Here is my complete mileage table through today:
 Fillup no. ODO Gallons MPG
       1: 340.0 12.445 27.32
       2: 401.1 13.030 30.78
       3: 381.3 12.223 31.20
       4: 481.9 15.384 31.32
       Totals 1604.3miles 53.082 gals 30.22 mpg
As you can see with each tank mileage is getting better. The first tank had more city driving, the last 3 tanks almost all highway. The trip computer had me at 34 mpg at this last fillup, so it is off by 2.68 mpg. It is possible that this last fillup, being a rather slow filling nozzle, filled up a bit more than usual.

1974 miles / 67.803 gals = 29.11 mpg (70/30 highway/city).
 
You have to drive really slow on the highway in order get a good number. I mean at the speed limit - 65mph.
