All the Bells and Whistles
I love my Brand new 2017 Toyota Camry. I have the mystic grey color and it is like an old mood ring. When the light shines on it the green and blues sparkle. It looks black, then blue, then dark green. Anyway I have all the safety features you can ask for and several other things are a must like the sunroof. I felt like if I were going to be driving a 4 door I want sporty yet luxury. The color of the inside of the material is called ash. It is a light grey with a dark grey. Very sweet car. Only thing I do not like is the backup camera. When the sun is shinning down you can not see backing up. The technology needs to be better. I like the way the lines on the camera go with you when you are backing up. This does not have that feature. The lines are only straight they do not move back and forth nor does it beep when you are backing up. I did get the feature with the lane switching technology and this is to be on the back as well if a cart or kid comes behind me it should beep. I do not see that being an option. I have had the car for 3 days so far and was disappointed that it did not have that feature.

Love it all Except for the GPS.
I bought a 2017 Camry XLE late last year and I love it. It's very comfortable and a pleasure to drive. The dealership in Vacaville has been super.The only disappointment is having to use Scout GPS to have the display on the touch screen. Scout GPS is real close to being totally useless. Out of the 17 times I have tried to use it, so far, it was only able to establish the link 4 times. All of these attempts except 3 were in my driveway. It's not worth having even though it's free. You would think, this being the 21st century, Toyota would have software that would allow you to chose which GPS system you want. May be next year. Ha.

Seats hard!
Bought my 2017 Toyota Camry SE new and not long after we purchased it we realized we don't like the seats. They're very hard and uncomfortable. We sold the car and so glad we did. It sat in the garage to uncomfortable. Didnt like the fake leather.

First Toyota
I replaced my extremely reliable Chrysler 300c hemi v8 that was totaled. Do to our plans to purchase a house I'm 20 months I tried keep costs contained so as much as I wanted another 300c I wanted to keep on budget. The Camry SE is exceptionally quiet and smooth riding. The 2.5 4 cylinder provides decent acceleration. It's no Rucker but it's more than adequate. Interior materials could be better in my opinion and there should be ambient lighting in cup holder, foot weeks, door handles, and map pockets. Rear door panels should have soft touch surfaces too. Seats are far and away much improved over my grand parents 2011. I looked at a ton of cars and rented them and spent a few days with each. The Camry much to my surprise I even thigh it was the best at one particular thing except ride and sound isolation perhaps did everything well. The other car that cane close was the new Malibu but I trust Toyota more so o bought it.

My last Toyota
I have purchased new Toyotas since 1984, with my first new car, a Tercel, with multiple Toyotas to follow. Beginning with a 2008 Avalon I noticed a downward turn in quality. Paint quality on my 2017 Camry is poor compared to my 2004 Camry. Interior plastic surfaces are easily scratched. And the amount of road/wind noise is ridiculous on the highway. But the item that confirmed the end of my Toyota loyalty, the Scout GPS connected nav app on my 2017 Camry. It doesn't work. Toyota has responded to tell me basically "oh well, nothing to for us to do here". That attitude has been echoed by the dealership. I realize some people would say the connected nav issue is a nit, but for me it simply confirms the direction Toyota is going. We went outside Toyota three years ago and bought a new Honda. Better quality, fit/finish, and much better dealer/service experience.
