Are you ever driving in your tC an just get the odd feeling that you are driving in a camary or is that just me ?

 

um no cause i see my steering wheel at it has a scion logo on it

 

no i have a coupe not a sedan.

 

I haven't driven in a Camry b4. Other than the engine, what components do they share?

 

i think he means that its boring...


but nope. get an intake or exhaust and it will be more fun :D

 

Other than a 92 Camry, I've only driven the generation before the current ones...

danget that was a scary experience. Unresponsive steering, brakes that felt like they went through the floor without biting, etc etc

like driving my dad's Sienna! Who the heck drives these things?!

 

nope, i do sometimes feel like im a driving a racecar though!

vrrroooooom!!!

exhaust helps alot with the sound it makes

 

That's it, one day I'm going to replace your car with a 89 Camry with 300,000 miles on it.

 

drove an 05 camry (and owned a 95 camry) while my scion was getting a dent repair and its parts installed for about 4 days.

definitely does not feel like a camry. the brakes on that camry were very spungy, there was a very weird rattling (my mom's vibe has it too) in the front... almost like a little piece of plastic bouncing around and the transmission was very unforgiving (jolted from 1st to 2nd on more then one occasion).

 

ash, booo!

i owned a tank before, a 94 concorde. i know all about the slow overweight tank cars.

 

I don't know why people make fun of the camry so much. It's one of the nicest, highest quality car you can get.

I often hear xa and xb owners try to compensate for their cars by saying that the tC has a "Camry" engine.

So what. The Camry motor is one of the most reliable bullet proof 4 bangers out there. It's a lot better than their "Echo" engined car.

Since the tC has a Camry motor, I expect nothing less than 200,000 miles of reliable driving ahead.

 

Nope. Haven't driven a Camry.

 

haven't driven a camry either

 

I used to drive 93 V6 Camry XLE before I bought my 07 tC. I know it's v6 so I can't really compare with my tC. Camry was little more powerful than tC (Of course it's v6) but that Camry is dying now

 

Camry feels HUGE compared to driving the tC

I drove an 07 Camry, and i drive the 05 tC
I would say almost everything feels different

 

yes, please go drive a Camry, you'll be taking your life into your own hands (or more like out of your hands).. that is a SCARY ride.. bad brakes, unresponsive steering..

to paul34! You're right, who buys the Camry? I mean are these people lacking any kind of feeling for a car? Amazing there are that many insane drivers to say the Camry actually sells... I feel sorry for those buyers.. I actually prefer my car to BRAKE when I ask it to, not when it thinks it wants to!.. and not to mention have an ACTUAL steering feel!! what a concept!

And to compare the tc to the camry, someone must be locked in an old episode of the Twilight Zone.. Welcome.. lol

 

if u drive an automatic tc, i can see how it can feel like driving a camry.

 

I got to drive an 07 Camry while my car was getting work done on it and I didn't think it was a bad car. Granted, I would never own one now, but down the road, I think it would be a great car for hauling around kids or someday when I have arthritis so bad that I can't drive a manual. I did notice a big difference between that and my tC though. The "fun factor" just isn't there in the Camry.

 

having had a 1990 camry and a 2000 camry? i have 2 words...
HECKS NO!!

and like ^^ said, the fun factor is HUGE.

 

Definitely, and its sorta ironic that I say that because my dad, my uncle have both had Camrys, and it was the car that lasted us for nearly 10 years (over 250,000 miles!). My uncle has a newer one (but not 07, I heard they 'fixed' that one up a little with better braking and steering), and my uncle and aunt up north have 3-4 Camrys! In the same family! Not to mention a lot more of my family has Camrys as well... oh man

It's a good, reliable car of course, but what the heck!
