Glad to hear that VSC will be standard. The Camry is getting better and better. I hope the new 4cyl+6spd auto will offer 40+ mpg. Too bad about the C pillar blind spot. Hopefully the interior plastic will be upgraded as well. The "silver" plastic around the radio looks and feels very cheap. My mom has a 2007 LE auto and is very happy with it.
We drove the Accord and were not impressed. Accord was smaller, louder engine, more road noise and noisy front shock/absorber system. It creaked over speed bumps at very low speed!

do you remember what's equipped on this 2.5L engine?
VVT-i? or Dual VVT-i? or Valvematic?

Nothing was stated in the items I read, just a "New 2.5 180hp 4 cyl" engine with a 6 speed auto trans.

Hey seatoyotasales thanks for keeping us informed about the facelift. I'm having more faith in this facelift and hope Toyota also addresses quality issues.

Please let us know about the gas mileage when you find out. If the 2010 Camry will get 40 mpg then I know of 4 or 5 potential buyers just in my extended family alone. My aunt's '08 corolla is getting 40mpg Highway with a 4 speed transmission, so hopefully the new Camry will do the same or better.

It probably won't be until at least February of 09 that we know any gas mileage ratings etc. Car is scheduled to start production in Feb or Mar of 09

Toyota is pretty smart. It wouldn't surprise me if the 2010 LE hit 40+mpg. Edmunds says that the new Prius may hit 100mpg. If that is true, the 2010 Camry hybrid could give over 50mpg. With the new Chevy Volt coming out in 2 years, Toyota is really going to crank up the mpg numbers on all of its cars. We are also thinking of buying a Camry or Camry Hybrid next year. MPG is our major concern right now even if gas prices come down temporarily.

Is there a possibility that the Camry's with V6's HP can be bumped to 270+ or 280 to match the altima or 09 Maximas?

"Please let us know about the gas mileage when you find out. If the 2010 Camry will get 40 mpg then I know of 4 or 5 potential buyers just in my extended family alone.

I wouldn't hold my breath - unless they reduce the size to that of auntie's corolla; camrys need to get to 30 mpg before they get to 40 mpg, which they haven't yet. This rumbling that extra gears in an automatic transmission translate into better mileage is worrisome, especially since, in my experience, their 4 speeds do significantly better than any of their 5 speed transmissions that have been standard since 2005. Be wary. There are all sorts of claims of 2003+ camrys getting 30+mpg and just because you read it here doesn't mean you will get it. Don't buy a car based on what people claim on the internet. Go drive it 1,000 miles and see for yourself....the results will be educational to say the least.
