Just came accross this SHORT TAKES review on the TCH by Car & Driver magazine dated June 2006. They claim the 0-60 speed is 7.7 seconds. http://www.caranddriver.com/shortroadtests/11035/short-take-review-2007-toyota-c- amry-hybrid.html Another article stated that 3,000 TCH were delivered in May, 2006. I think that must mean delivered and ordered. WillyBill

One figure I saw was that the TCH would add about 10% to normal Camry sales. But what if it was such a huge hit that demand stayed at 100K units and accounted for 20% of Camry sales? |

Here a the first 2 pics. carspace More later. The car runs great, exceeds expectations. All the engineers at work want to geek out over this vehicle, gave 5 people rides and all were impressed. Trunk is fine. Didn't realize it had the regular 12V battery back there too! First trip to work I averaged 35 MPG over 40 miles of mixed light traffic, 2 full throttle freeway merges, country roads, and 5 or 6 stoplights. That's the benchmark run that I do each day, twice. Hope to get it up to 40 MPG as I learn the hybrid tricks. Taking it on a trip this weekend, averaging 34.2 MPG so far on this tank (140 miles into it, and the vehicle for that matter) |

I am not getting a great vibe about my local dealer and was hoping to get some advice. I've have been told my my local dealer (rural far N. CA) that Mag Grey with Bisque leather interior is not available in CA, which I've since learned is not the case. Also, he wants a $2K non-refundable down to get on the waiting list - which also seems out of the ordinary. My brother lives in the Bay Area and I'd like to talk to some dealers there - anyone have a dealer that was good to work with that you can recommend I call? I'm partial to the mag grey w/bisque, but not wedded to it - its just the sum of our interactions that make me want to look elsewhere. Thanks! |

Replying to: hardchemist (Jun 14, 2006 2:07 pm) You may have posted this previously, but I'm curious which wheels you replaced the stock ones with. I'm considering a wheel upgrade myself (possibly to 18" rims), but don't want to add any unsprung weight to the car, if possible. Anyone who has any advice on wheel upgrade considerations, please feel free to chime in. I've never done it before. |
