the bigger the car CC, the FC will be bad when in city driving, No doubt about that and no matter how light your foot is, it will never have good FC.

That's why CVT with sports mode and shift tronic will help sometimes.

good handling but ride comfortness i still doubt a lil... i feel humps and bumps easily although it is on a comfort tires, can't imagine if it was on a performance (harder) tires... especially the rear passenger if long journey and bumpy ride then u know smile.gif

I'm not saying that it has best ride comfort. But for me the ride is okay & handling best in-class. So it offers best of both worlds.

Drove d 2.0G Camry a couple of months back. Personally, I feel that d 2.3 would make more sense due to its weight if it was not for d rd tax. D 2.0 frankly is merely sufficient but d 4-speed auto does cope rather well.

Compared to the equivalent Accord, Toyota r more inclined towards comfort while Honda's engine edges slightly ahead with sportier suspension setup.

Bro, 2.3 or 2.4? I think is more on typo error.
Anyway, 4 speed auto is just like Proton Wira's older 3-speed auto tranny models, won't be FC friendly... Hope Toyota Malaysia will bring in 2.5 models which is having 6-speed...

Yikes. Yup my typo, should b 2.4.

But I do hv a strong feeling d next Camry would b at least 5-speed since it is behind d crowd in terms of technology advancement .

I find that the Honda Accord is damn noisy above 110km/h. IMO the Camry is much better.

While every brand going for 6-speed, Toyota still 1 step behind? What's the meaning of "Mowing Foward"? This is more on moving backwards.

Sometimes it's due to tyres. If the car is using performance tyres then obviously it'll be noisier.

Cabin noise is higher for accord vs camry at various speed. This starts from 60km/h and above.

And I will use the "manual mode" during jams to prevent it to fail faster....

What can you expect from Camry 2.0 147hp. It is a car tuned towards ride quality rather than performance.

If you ask about performance, based on my father '09 Accord, I can tell that the Accord 2.0 can easily tapau Camry 2.0  from 0-190km/h ++. Oso Camry can't take corner as hard as Accord could. I oso tested that Accord can also tapau Teana & Sonata. Ride comfort of Accord is also good. Damn nice this car. When i'm old enough i'll surely going to buy this Accord. wub.gif

Accord ride is horrible, I tested Camry and Accord in the same day before deciding for camry. No doubt accord is nicer to drive.. power wise, I cant comment as it is Accord 2.4 unit that I tested.

Hello all,

I just bought a new Toyota Camry 2.0G about 2 months ago.
Can some of the Camry 2.0G owner share with me some of the things that I am doubtful about.
1.Fuel Consumption
My car mainly travel in small town for about 10-30km a day with trafic lights, start- stop, max speed goes to 70km/h.
MID shows 6.3km/l
I have clocked only 3000 km only so far.

Is the FC ok ?

Bad FC if it's true! The way you should measure is by first filling up until really full, reset the odometer and drive for several days until about 80% of the tank consumed. Then refill again until full, then divide the distance shown in the odo by the volume of fuel you've just pumped, then you'll get your actual avg. FC. Don;t just look at your econo meter reading because that is very inaccurate and only shows the FC at that specific time and condition, not the true avg. For this car in healthy condition should be able to reach at least 10km/ltr.

2. Auto unlock of car door when shifted in P.
Can we disable this function?

Don't know but why want to disable?

3. Lack of power... Hehe.. I think the car is a bit lack of power

Sigh...you bought that size of a car with puny 2.0 engine still complain about lack of power!  doh.gif  Car that size at least needs 2.5ltr NA engine, or needs turbo/supercharging or else it will be very underpowered. Only in Malaysia people buy such cars!  doh.gif 

4. Bumpy when go through yellow stripes.

Check your tire pressure, maybe too hard. Camry should be comfortable enough unless you're expecting Mercedes like comfort! Or have you changed rims with bigger diameter ones and hence thinner tires?

5.Body kit, I plan to install bodykit  now (not the toyota original one). What is the market price now? My car is black.

This depends on the shop, material and styling. It can range from 1.5k to 2.5k all inclusive.
