I had a chance to see a couple of 2012 Toyota Camry's in person the other day at an undisclosed location. And I didn't like them.
The new model looks like a boring car from 90's. The exterior doesn't have any flair any close to those of 2011 Ford Focus, Hyundai Sonata or Elantra, which I consider as the new direction in automotive exterior design, which ironically the retiring Camry started back in 2006. It is destined to flop. I am never a kind who buys any mid-sized sedans, but I would never drive this Camry, even if I were given for free. Only if it came with a life-time supply of free gas, I would think about it. All in all, I can see Toyota will lose its ground in this segment in the US, which apparently is not too good for my friends and myself.
