Inspired by the FP post this morning: what would your three-car dream garage would look like if ONLY Camries were allowed (no, the Avensis and Aurion [JUST KIDDING THE AURION COUNTS NOW] don’t count.) Here’s mine:

Three Accords. Specifically 00-02 Euro-R, 02-08 Euro-R, and for a daily a TSX wagon with a manual swap and JDM Accord Type S badging.

Not pictured, me slowly walking away while clicking the lid closed on a zippo.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from action movies, it’s that you dump the gas out then light the Zippo, drop it in the gas, and turn to walk away. You never take the nice, fancy, expensive Zippo with you!

DD: 2018 Toyota Camry LE Hybrid, with the SE suspension: (I’d actually prefer the SE overall, except I’d want the 16" wheels and the Li-ion battery.)

Kinja'd!!!

Track: ~1980-1982 Toyota Celica Camry GT 2000: (IT SAYS CAMRY)

Kinja'd!!!

Something I have no idea what to do with, other than haul shit that doesn’t fit in the other two: 1986 Toyota Camry LE Liftback Diesel: (MUST HAVE THESE WHEELS, photo is almost certainly not of a diesel.)

Kinja'd!!!

I could’ve used a wagon, but I wanted a liftback in here, and I wanted something more WTF than the wagons.

Also, not allowing Aurions doesn’t have much point to it - you can get basically the same thing in the form of a US-spec Camry XLE V6, you just need to add the supercharger and better suspension if it’s a TRD Aurion.

1994 Camry V6 Coupe

2018 Camry XSE V6

Kinja'd!!!

1990 Toyota Camry All-Trac

Kinja'd!!!

The all-wheel-drive of the All-Trac will be useful in the snow. I’d just have to keep rust at bay.

The XSE would make a competent and smooth daily driver.

And the coupe, I’d keep it well preserved and bring it to car shows as an ironic statement.

I’ve seen enough CSI to know if I leave the zippo behind they’ll break out a computer on site that can recreate my DNA sequence based on a single flake of skin I left on the striker wheel.

That’s how they program the drones to track you down based on pheromone signatures!

No Alltrac wagon? (Supposedly they exist...)

Yeah, I only just realized that moments ago—the Avensis is really the one I was trying to avoid as it’s nowhere near a Camry. SO let’s revise the rules just for this:

Kinja'd!!!

No more Holden Apollo for me! A TRD Aurion from here on out!

Leave it to you to find the awesomest Camries ever. What is that last thing? Anyways, the South American/Japanese Camry is much classier than the American and the XV20 wagon, while not quite as awesome as the XV10 because only one rear wiper, is certainly much, much better looking.

Kinja'd!!! "Amoore100" (amoore100)
09/16/2017 at 13:13, STARS: 1

Yes. You found it. The Alltrac V6 wagon. Honestly, that blue one is probably the only one that exists, ever, anywhere.

Totally on the first, still can’t get over the proboscis of the second, and yes yes yes on the third—love the corporate “T” grille from the Celica XX.

Kinja keeps eating my pictures. I’ve tried three different browsers!

1991 Camry DX (sedan, four-cylinder, five-speed).

1996 Camry LE V6 (sedan, automatic).

2016 Camry SE Hybrid. This would be my DD.

Didn’t know it was an option, I’ve only seen two AllTracs and they were sedans.
