I bought an XSE V6 new in December. I consistently get 28 mpg in town and 37 on the highway. I drive pretty conservatively 99 percent of the time. With smaller wheels and/or a different set of tires you'd probably get better mileage and an even quieter ride! The Bridgestone Turanza EL440s that come on these kinda suck. But it's a great car! So glad I bought the V6 while they still offer it!
purchased a month ago. better than the crown to me. i love this car. fast as hell. very responsive 8 out of 10 for the sound system. it also has ambient LED lighting on the inside that dim in drive and then brighten up in park. Smooth ride like the Avalon. Amazing to drive at night!!!!!
The handling in this gen Camry is really good as is the ride balance. Not to mention with the v6 it’s very quiet inside. Near Lexus like levels of isolation
what vehicles do u find exciting? I know each person has their own feelings about it but personally I don’t c how anyone can say that this styling is boring. I will agree that after 6 years with this body style(2018) it is beginning 2 get a little dated because there r so many out there.(by the way saw a photo of the 2024 and wasn’t crazy about the styling).
@@michaelcrockette8694 I think the Camry was never designed to be a flashy car. It has to appeal to the family sedan segment. This current model is the most aggressive Camry I've seen. I like it.

I have the same exact car a 2021 though. Supersonic Red V6, I got the whole car wrapped in paint protection film. It makes that color just glow in the sunlight. Great car very nice to drive.
Very expensive, I went through a local detail shop which outsourced it. It might have been a little cheaper if I went somewhere that installs it themselves. Probably around 9k with taxes. They used xpel film.
When did you vedio record this review? I was going to buy a 2023 Camry from this exact dealer, speced just like this one. But they won't budge off MSRP. So I ended up buying one out of state with almost $4k in additional options and paid $2500 less out the door than what South Dade was trying to sell theirs.
@Drive On Reviews I honestly doubt it. However, all these dealer that have been taking advantage of their customers are going to encounter some hard times this year. Banks are going to stop lending to over MSRP sales, folks won't get qualified, and rates will be rapidly increasing. Unless there's a dramatic price drop or increased incentives, the car market is going to take a beating. It's already happening with the used car prices.
@@Do-UR-Research2749 bro I’m in Tampa Florida and I tried to purchase this exact car and trim level but it was just white and Toyota tried to sell me over MSRP $8000. It’s getting ridiculous why are they doing this? I had to walk out three times. I had to get a Kia K5 instead GT
@American Kendoll happy it all worked out for you. Don't be afraid of looking out of state. These Florida dealers think they got us local folks bent over a barrel. This was the second Toyota I bought out of state and saved thousands.
Had a 21 V6 XSE. Gorgeous vehicle. Quick. Aggressive when necessary, but smooth. It's beautiful in and out. Frost Chill Pearl with black top, Ash Grey Leather. And mostly the safety and air bags worked 💯 to keep me alive. I totaled my Camry on the freeway at high speeds. God is good🙏
I'm actually purchasing a 2023 Camry SE this weekend. I don't like the styling, but am sold on reliability. I'm forced to get one, because my car won't make it when the redesign 2024 Camry is released at the end of this year.
Thank you for the feedback but I started honestly doing it this way before redline but since he has a bigger platform, it seems like I’m copying him if that makes sense
What happen to Full Tank of Gas, Odometer shows 11miles and it has less than 1/2 tank. JBL Sound System rate 6.5 out of 10 which is not Premium. True, Toyota has not updated the Infotainment Center, it was refreshed in 2021 but still has Safety Sense 2.5 rather than Safety Sense 3.0. The 2023 Camry is supposedly the 40th Anniversary, instead of getting a new 9th Generation this is the 6th consecutive year of same 8th gen. style. Rumor of 40th Anniversary to be celebrated in 2024 or that Toyota has a 2023 Camry that is re-badged with a new exterior and interior color but remains the all identical to its 2023 Camry. If you need Wireless Car Play and Android Auto get the Ottocast U2-X Pro rate 9.1 out of 10. To place windshield wipers into Service Mode, within 10 seconds after turning Off the Camry, hold the wiper arm switch upwards to MIST for 3 seconds. To Secure Lock your Camry, on your FOB Press and Hold LOCK and at same time Press UNLOCK TWICE ... requires both hands to do this. You will not be able to enter the Camry unless you Press Unlock on the FOB. Your Toyota vehicles sends out a constant signal trying to communicate with your FOB. Thieves can hi-jack/steal your car by using a Blank Coded FOB and a Laptop Computer then encode that blank FOB and drive off with your car. Therefore, Secure Lock. Using your FOB, Press and Hold the Lock button and at same time Press Unlock Twice. Pull on the door handle and you cannot get in. No one should get in unless the Unlock button is pushed on the FOB. You have just prevented easy thief. I own a new 2023 Camry XSE V6. For your own safety, replace the dangerous Bridgestone Turanza EL440 tires ASAP with a renown high quality brand from Continental, Pirelli, or Michelin Tires. Turanza tires are known for sidewall bulging, tread wear gone between 15K to 20K miles, and after 15K miles produce tire-road noise due to tread wear. They provide terrible handling in the rain and snow. They are a Summer Tire for dry climates but watch out as may get a blow out. Bridgestone provides No Warranty on Turanza's. Yes! low Ground Clearance of 5.7 inches so watch out for Potholes, manholes, sewer drains, Curbs, and Speed bumps. Backup camera and Birdseye view are low resolution but can do as not the worst I have seen. Define boring? Just because body design is not to everyone's liking or it's been 6 consecutive years of same looking Camry and lost its appeal. The Camry you showing Does Not Have Cold Weather Package as there is no Heated Steering Wheel another thing missing was Birdseye view switch and not sure why? may needed Navigation Upgrade Package. I have Heads Up Display but it's not required and hard to see on bright sunny days. Toyota offers many subscriptions after 1 year Trial must pay. To Remote Start your vehicle from the FOB after 1 year, you must subscribe and pay. Most of the Toyota Apps are the same way .. pay up or do not use. Avoid signing up for Sirius XM they just keep sending you junk mail and email notification. Alexa does not work well, just use Google Assistant. Enjoy your new Camry!!!!
Did you notice the speedometer goes up to 160 mph?? Who are they trying to kid? Other car manufacturers do the same thing and it is really annoying in the sense that it unnecessarily squishes the dial numbers. I would much prefer a realistic speedometer (120 mph?) with numbers spaced every 10 and easy to read.
@@DriveOnReviews Thanks for remembering me. Iam good bro. I do catch every review you do but keep meaning to comment. Still your biggest fan. Hope all is well in sunny Florida
I’d probably wait for the 2024 model, with the new infotainment system and likely full digital gauge cluster similar to the rav4 or highlander. Yes it is boring, but I’d rather have a long lasting boring car than a somewhat interesting GM car.
They tell you not to change oil till 10000 on my new 2023 xse camry but I was a quart low at 7500 miles note I also did the 5000 mile maintenance which was fine so between 5000 to 7500 miles I lost a quart of oil which makes me nervous about this camry .
I don’t understand how anyone could look at this car and think “boring”? I’d choose this car over any expensive luxury vehicle. 🤷♀️
Just ordered this same exact colorway and engine. It’s my first car so I’m just excited for it to come fr
This is Hood luxury

Owned V6 Camry and it is fast! It might look ho hum but it is a powerful car. I highly recommend this car for anyone looking to buy a new car.

Trading my 23 civic for this for that exact reason. This car is powerful and puts it down quick. If you haven’t test drove this car then you need to
