Seriously 9-10km/L (50% city drive , 50% HW) ?

I still thinking to buy a second hand 2.0G wo...

10km/l is normal for d segment.
you want less fuel consumption? go for lighter car and smaller cc engine.

do u still used your camry? I'm planned to get one 2nd hand model.

Is it true cornering not so good?

How about install ultra racing bar for stabilizer?

and install iridium spark plug?

so far i know early camry using normal spark plug

the xv40 camry is using iridium spark plug. change every 100k.

agree. at higher speeds and rpm, the engine roar is more obvious in the Accord

Camry is a regular family sedan focused on comfort, so Camry and good cornering are never expected in the same thing.
You may need to do many things to improve its cornering capability, UR bars is one of them (especially anti-roll bars). Others are change suspension (springs & dampers) to stiffer ones, change rims to slightly bigger (17') but lighter ones and certainly change tires to high performance ones (UHP class tires). By doing those you should improve the cornering quite much, however expect the comfort level to be reduced a bit after all these done.

Spark plugs is already using iridium type as std.

anyone know does this camry rear seat can be fold especially G spec?

Why buy a car and try to make it do something it was never designed to do? Suspension and chassis capability isn't something that could be improved merely by installing bars and tightening nuts. You need new springs and dampers and etc which would cost a bomb, and that would've made the purchase irrelevant in the first place. Worst, you will hardly get the right tuning after spending a bomb on those upgrades. Get the right car is a way better idea.

The latest 2012 camry rear seat cannot fold. Only a small hole from the center arm rest to take things in the boot.

how about 2007/2008 model?

so sad RM100k plus car cant fold down seat. so whats the meaning of family sedan...so weird toyota

Fuh! And sacrifice the speed you can fly over the bumps with a stock camry?

I had to slow down to get over some bumps at around 20++kph and those camry don't even see the brake lights come on and flies over it at an much faster than i do.

Folding seats create rattling noise after a while la. Why you need to fold the entire seat down anyways?

Many people say cornering is not so good for toyota camry. I think is depending on the drivers skill. Both my relatives who are driving 2nd camry (2.0 and 2.4) can corner at very high speed without much hassle. There was one time i sat in his 2.0 camry. He was speeding pretty fast and tailgating all the way while playing Clash of Clans, lol.. And i am aware that his car dont even have VSA. Sitting in his car is like sitting in a sports car instead of a comfort car.

family man with more than 3 kids must have this function..at least for me..

Family man and performance (especially cornering performance) has little to no relationship. You would hate to see your 3 kids slip and sliding from one side to the other on your rear view mirror when you are driving isn't it?

As for the folding seats. I am not sure what is the use of it. But, you have your valid reasons i believe. Unfortunately, if Toyota don't see a reason for it. You are going to get stuck with it.

The Fiesta (normal variant) can take a corner at higher speeds with less understeer than a Camry anyday. If that doesn't help you redefine the word "sports car" in your dictionary, i can't help any further.

Driving like a hooligan in public roads do not make the car transform into a sports car. If that is the case, we have plenty of sport cars on the road like Myvi, City, Mazda 3, Vios, etc.

Naah stock Camry will still need to slow down quite a bit approaching speed bumps. If want to fly over speed bumps then get one of Kadajawi favorite cars, a Citroen.
For me I have no issue slowing down a lot for speed bumps coz I don't encounter many of them anyway.
