The Chinese will copy it and sell it for $800.

It'll be a bit of a death trap, but it'll sell like crazy...

Actually it probably won't. Lexus sells the ES also in China with the V6 (whereas their Camry only has the i4), priced around $80k+. This ES is essentially identical to ours.

New Camry definitely looks better in real life. I love it so much, even the LE and XLE variants are well executed.

Agreed, the rear is not very well done.

Congrats on the new Camry!

Interesting that you would trade in the newer CR-V on the camry and not the older RX. Any specific reason for getting rid of the CR-V that quickly?

All of the Camrys I've seen out in the wild (ie bought) have been SEs, which is definitely a plus. The SEs are now outselling the LEs.
