I stand corrected.
 
I went out and re-verified, the radio buttons DO glow dimily when the lights are on. It's the cruise control stick that isn't lit.
 
Sorry, got my vehicles confused.

Camry XLE 2010 and satellite/sirius? by rlongwell
Jul 21, 2009 (6:34 am)

I did a test drive with a Camry XLE 2010 last week and liked it, except for the color.
 
While driving it I listened to CNN via Sirius in the car; after we got back to the office
salesman found a model that should arrive within a few days to the dealership with the "correct" color (red). The description and costs are identical on the listings on both cars.
 
When I told him Sirius was working on the test drive car, he said that typically purchasers of this model get Sirius for free for 3 months, and then need to sign up a plan, AND THAT IS ALL THAT IS REQUIRED.
 
I look at the description of the radio on the car and it says:
 
JBL® AM/FM 6-disc in-dash CD changer with integrated satellite radio [6], MP3/WMA playback capability, auxiliary audio jack, USB port with iPod® [7] connectivity, hands-free phone capability and music streaming via Bluetooth® [8] wireless technology, eight speakers in six locations, Vacuum Fluorescent Display and FM diversity reception.
 
"integrated satellite radio" - does that mean I do NOT need to buy any additional hardware to make the Sirius work on the second car? I'm going to check it out before I take possession or complete the sale - I don't want to get the car and find out I need to pay $400 or more for a Sirius tuner! Can anyone tell me if this is indeed ready to go and just needs my subscription info only?
 
Otherwise this seems to be a great car!
 
Thanks for any input!

Did they change the console? by acdii

My biggest peeve about the Camry is the center console. It lights up way too bright and cant be controlled independent of the dash. This poses a hazard in foggy driving conditions. Anyone buying a Camry should be aware of this little problem. At first it looks cool, but the first time I had to drive in fog, and couldnt see outside because of all the back glare inside really ticked me off. I wound up turning the dash lights off, but I couldnt see any of the gauges then.
 
I am seriously considering upgrading to the Ford Fusion Hybrid. I was blown away when I sat in one that a coworker bought. Made my Camry Hybrid look cheap. Considering they cost about the same, Toyota will need to work extra extra hard if they want me to buy another one from them.

I just purchased a 2010 Camry in Houston
 
What to do:
1) Know for sure what options etc you want...
2) Call dealers and ask for internet sales manager or fleet manager.
3) Say you will buy today and tell them to give you there best price.
4) This price will probably be 250-750 higer than there best price.
5) Then ask them to send an e-mail quote and have each dealer continue to undercut the other.
6) In the end you will have the best deal
 
Its not a fun or easy process but you will save yourself potentially 1-2 thousand dollars.
 
Never walk in and ask for salesperson.. its a complete nightmare.

Alloy Wheels by chris789

I'm about to purchase a Camry LE and wanted to know what price I should expect to add alloy wheels. The toyota.com website use to show $388 but now its over $800. I figured they would be cheaper if bought with the car purchase. What should I expect to pay for this upgrade? If it matters I'm purchasing it at sunnyvaletoyota.com in california.
 
thanks,
Chris

integrated satellite radio, (not satellite ready), does mean it is ready to receive satellite..be aware that on the early release 2010 camrys, the jbl's came only with satellite ready setups meaning you still had to get a satellite receiver...recently built models do have the integrated tuner but double check the window sticker on the specific car you want to buy...

V6 test drive by austinman7

I'm about to take a test drive in a V6 Camry. I remember seeing a number of posts a year or two back when the first of this generation, the '07 model, came out, from owners experiencing transmissions that didn't shift properly. I haven't followed this thread since then. Do you all feel that Toyota has put that problem behind them?
 
If this dealer has both '09 and '10 V6 models in stock, will there be any significant differences in the cars?
 
Thanks very much for your guidance.

Aren't the alloys a factory option rather than a dealer-installed accessory? If so, the former would be the way to go.

2010 Camry Transmission by smarty666

Does anyone know if Toyota had resolved the problems with the 6-speed automatic transmission in the V6 of the 2010 camry? I know it was a major problem with the 07 and 08 models. If anyone with a 2009 camry 6-speed automatic transmission I would love to know if your having problems or not?
