I have arthritis and it is great to have a seat that i can lower and slide way back. Not just great - it was important in the purchase decision. . see full Toyota Camry review

Front seat comfort is another subjective measurement. Our experience driving our 06 and 08 Accords has been that we feel little discomfort or back pain during long trips. We did have more such problems with our 05 and 06 rentals, although not severe. see full Toyota Camry review

These seats seem to have been designed for someone 250 pounds. Wide, flat, and no proper support for your back. While this has a lumbar support for the driver, the poor seat design makes this uncomfortable for long trips. see full Toyota Camry review

It could not seat three adults, while the Ford could easily seat three large people, and give them limo-like legroom. see full Toyota Camry review

2008 Toyota Camry Powertrain: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD
The 268 HP V-6 coupled to a 6-speed automatic is very smooth and fuel efficient. The shiftable automatic comes in handy while driving in the mountains. see full Toyota Camry review

The V6 has pep and can pass other vehicles on the highway without a problem or hiccup. Fun to drive for a "family car". see full Toyota Camry review
2007 4dr Sedan 187-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid

Very smooth with plenty of passing power for a 4 cylinder. see full Toyota Camry review

this car is a sleeping straight-line performance hot rod that can keep up with 98% of the cars on the road in 98% of most driving situations. This V6 literally feels like a giant american V8 from the 60s and 70s. see full Toyota Camry review

I dont even know where to begin. This vehicle is phoenomenal to drive. The accelleration, handling and 6 speed automatic tranny all attribute to the vehicles performance. You will have to drive it to understand. see full Toyota Camry review

2009 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4

You have to keep your foot on the floor to get the 4 cyl Camry to be responsive. Highway entrance ramps are not enjoyable. see full Toyota Camry review
2008 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4

Although I knew this going into the Camry, the engine is not a top performer for speed and acceleration. Would like to have seen a CVT rather than a 5 speed transmission. see full Toyota Camry review
2008 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
The 08 Camry 4 cylinder performs well but it does not seem to be a match for the Accord, or even for other cars that we test drove in this price and size range, notably the Nissan Altima and Hyundai Sonata. see full Toyota Camry review
2007 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
The transmission hunts for gears, shifting constantly. Driving at 45 mph and taking your foot off accelerator it will downshift and then upshift at 25 mph. Sometimes the accelerator will not respond for seconds and when it does the car lurches forward. see full Toyota Camry review
2007 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
This car has the worst 5 speed automatic transmission. Jerky during highway driving when going up or down the slightest hill. You do not notice this around town, so if you test drive, make sure you get on a highway at 65 mph and use the cruise control. see full Toyota Camry review
2007 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
This is the first electronic throttle for camry and hence some minor glitches like, speed pickup does not happen instantaneously when gas is applied. Probably it might have been fixed in later models. see full Toyota Camry review
2007 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4
5-speed automatic FWD
Shifts gears constantly around 40 mph. Take your foot off the accelerator and the transmission downshifts as if engine braking. Hesitates approximately two seconds after pressing the accelerator pedal, then lunges forward. see full Toyota Camry review
