Overview & Reviews
Toyota's perennially best-selling family sedan gets a complete makeover for 2007. Among the highlights are a roomier interior, additional luxury-oriented features, an available 268-hp V6 coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission, and a gasoline-electric hybrid model that earns EPA fuel economy estimates of 43 mpg city/37 mpg highway.
- Roomy cabin, powerful V6 engine, hybrid model available, legendary build quality and reliability history.
- No manual transmission available with V6, some odd styling elements.

Happy with my Camry - 2007 Toyota Camry
By Brian - August 16 - 4:10 pmIm happy with my 07 Camry. Its very comfortable and a quiet ride with low levels of road and wind noise. I drive (not own) quality cars and I can attest to the fact this car rides as well as some cars costing considerably more. As my car is only a 4 cylinder version, performance is adequate to good. There are a few things that irritate me. When one floors the gas pedal, not a lot happens, which can prove to be a bit embarrassing in certain situations. Maybe its some electronic trickery to overcome the lack of traction control! The transmission leaves a lot to be desired. Driving in hilly and twisting roads is hard work maybe a sixth gear would solve this problem.

Good... Not Great - 2007 Toyota Camry
By ChairmanoftheBored - August 14 - 6:16 pmWhen I was looking for a new car I fell for the Toyota hype since Id never owned one and figured itd be a safe bet - while it has some redeeming features its pretty underwhelming overall. Mine suffers from the tranny slip (or "flare") on the 3-4 upshift when cold, build quality is good but nothing like the Toyota-hype I was expecting, as it has its share of squeaks and rattles just like a 10 year old Chevy. Power is great, but tranny hesitates when the gas is floored, kinda like its asking its driver "are you REALLY sure you wanna do that?" Watch out for torque steer as its quite prominent too - again, not expected in a Toyota. Not a bad car mind you, but overall a disappointment.

First Toyota I didnt like - 2007 Toyota Camry
By bobsays - August 10 - 8:00 pmAfter owning many Toyotas and Lexus, this Camry is the first Toyota I did not like. The engine/transmission was a Jekyll/Hyde affair. Sometimes it hesitated, sometimes it was overly sensitive, sometimes it was OK. The ride is best described as pitch and bob. As long as the road was smooth it was good. The center dashboard had the cheapest plastic available. It is hard to believe Toyota would use such materials in so conspicuous a place. This sort of thing is what American car companies were severely criticized for but I havent read one word about it in any enthusiast magazine. After 8 months, I drove a 2007 Saturn Aura. Bye, bye Camry. I bought the Saturn. I look forward to driving again.

Fun, reliable car - 2007 Toyota Camry
By Doreen - July 31 - 9:10 amIm happy with my Camry. Coming from mini-vans, this is like a sports car for me! The V6 seems like it is a "must" for this particular car. It has a lot of get-up and go. I just had it serviced at 20,000 miles and was told I needed an alignment because my tires were wearing unevenly. I do mostly highway driving and have not hit any potholes, so were not sure why this happened. I see from other reviews that there are problems with tires needing to be replaced at 20,000 miles. Also, my son has a 94 Camry and the engine runs so quietly. The 2007 is a lot noisier.

So so - 2007 Toyota Camry
By Nelson NYC - July 29 - 5:16 amThe Camry SE is an above average sedan at an affordable price. It does everything well but nothing spectacular. Gas mileage at 7500 mi is still around 20 MPG and Im hoping it will improve as I rack up the mileage. With 268 HP it definitely has some spunk, but the tranny hesitates at times. My dashboard creaks like an old house in the wind and the starter makes a sound on cold weather starts. I guess for the price of the performance and that it runs on regular gas makes it more attractive than other sedans on its price range. One thing though, at hard acceleration there isnt the torque steer that is experienced with other front wheel drive vehicles with this amount of HP.

New owner - 2007 Toyota Camry
By Eroc69 - July 1 - 11:06 amI just picked up my 07 LE-V6 so I cant comment on the total overall package. I do love the look and the dual exhaust and obviously the engine. I will post a more detailed review in a few months. I can be picky so read here in a few.

good looking camry with poor reliability - 2007 Toyota Camry
By jtlboy - June 30 - 6:46 pmThe performance of a V6 is awesome. Handling is great. The windshield wiper design with the water spray is horrible. The water spray is blocked by the wiper on the left side when it comes out initially. The interior looks good but feels cheap compared to my 1997 LE camry. The transmission is the worst ever for camry. It downshift to much causing engine flare and I had problem with the reverse gear, but the up gear shift is great and smooth. Too bad it is not close to perfect.

Toyota - 2007 Toyota Camry
By olsenmd - May 28 - 12:20 amWe were disappointed that it didnt have keyless entry but other than that it is a very good car. Car seats fit pretty well in it also. I dont see the point of the text display option because it hasnt worked for any of our CDs or even with an auxiliary iPod.

Good and Bad - 2007 Toyota Camry
By Charles - May 20 - 7:16 pmThe ride is nice and the power on level ground is good. Fit and finish is really good on this car. The bad though: the 5 speed automatic hunts when driving up and down mountains. Its VERY bothersome when the transmission down shifts the second one brakes when going down a mountain. The speed control as well is balky in that the slightest uphill grade causes the transmission to down shift.

Great car at first look - 2007 Toyota Camry
By thrawnis - April 25 - 5:16 pmUnfortunately, I have had almost 40 problems with the car since day one, and I havent even reached the 1 year mark yet! Problems include parts falling off like grab handles and panels on the inside AND outside, brakes constantly squeal even after four dealer visits, radio/head unit failed, squeaks, rattles, etc. While I love the design, the poor components, sub-par fit-and-finish, poor quality control, and unreliable work on the part of dealership techs will make me question the quality of any future Toyota vehicle. I love the cars visual and aesthetic design, but quality is just as important and for that reason, I would NOT recommend the new Camry to anyone!
