Most other car companies have started to adopt the "intelligent key" system, so expect that to be a standard feature on most mid to high end cars soon. Nearly all the luxury brands have had this technology for several years now (Lexus, Acura, Infiniti, BMW, etc.) I applaud Nissan for bringing it to mainstream AND making it standard equipment on the Altima.
 
Not so standard; the only Altimas equipped with the Smart Entry system allow you to push the button on the door-handle. My friend has a new 2009 Altima 2.5S, which she has to push lock/unlock on the fob. It does have keyless start, however.

"Warming up" is outdated, as well.

You can either press button on the fob or the button on the door.

There was no button on the door of her car, IIRC.
 
Her car is a 2.5, not a 2.5S, I believe, as I'd stated earlier.
 
Intelligent key is NOT standard on all Nissan Altima Sedans.

You obviously don't live in the NorthEast.

Well, he said 2.5S not 2.5.
 
BTW, 2.5 doesn't even have a CD player.

They're carjackers....don't think they'd be that smart, but that is JMHO.

2010 Toyota Camry by joe97

In case anyone cares Toyota has revealed the facelift for the Camry. Now the grille on the regular Camry looks to take cues from the Venza, and hybrid from the Prius - makes sense.

Not feeling either of the Toyota intros so far, Camry and HS 250h, with the latter really falling on the scale.

Haha, well, I'm "he" who said 2.5S. I meant 2.5. It's hard to tell with her car since she has lots of aftermarket equipment (moonroof, leather, nav). I just distinctly remembered her car not having the intelligent entry/exit.

Pretty mild for a mid-gen refresh, compared to cars like the 2009 Sonata and the 2010 Fusion/Milan. At least the 2010 Camry joins most of the rest of the mid-sized sedans by offering ESC/traction as standard equipment, and the power increase on the I4 makes it more competitive with the rest of the class.
 
I thought the grille on the Venza was really ugly, but the new grille on the Camry doesn't look quite as bad. The front of the hybrid reminds me a lot of the previous-gen Accord.
