August 20, 200620 yr comment_135878 Tonight I just keep seeing the NEW add for the NEW Toyota Camry and keep thinking how cool it is. Has anyone else seen?? What do you think?? Auto headlights and wipers would be cool. Report
August 21, 200620 yr comment_135952 Sadly Front Wheel Drive is not cool I drove the new MPS 3 Mazda the other day. 190Kw FWD. As much as it really hurts to admit it, it's a seriously good thing. Had it at Willowbank track as well and it was more fun than a backyard full of Labradors. Good chassis, fabulous power delivery (torque limited via DCS) 1st and 2nd. Everything available after that. Pure torque steering animal with the DCS off though. :) Who'd have thought. Report

August 21, 200620 yr Author comment_136058 I think its better looking than the current Camry. There was nothing appealing about that. Report
August 21, 200620 yr comment_136078 As much as I hate to admit it, alot of other car manufacturers have it well and truly over Toyota in both interior and exterior design. Havig driven some of it's direct competition, it still has a way to go. Go Drive a Mazda 6 and then tell me which car you would rather own. Toyota have a habit of taking bland to a new level. Report

August 21, 200620 yr comment_136093 ..... but you'd still have the Mazda....... yea i like the mps too.... but have never driven one Edited August 21, 200620 yr by too quick Report
August 21, 200620 yr comment_136095 To me it seems like Toyota is currently going through a period of styling very similar in application to Mazda in the 90s. Bland, frumpy sedans and hatches that have decent technical merit and solid reliability, but there just happens to be some very cool looking cars on sale next door (Honda, Subaru) and across the street (Hyundai) that are just as reliable, yet cost less. Mazda's saviour was in the form of the Mazda6, a stylish affordable medium sedan that set benchmarks for dynamics, performance and style. Here's hoping Toyota's Mazda6 comes along sooner rather than later, because they are in desperate need of a styling revival. Report
