me silver

Black looks ganas, but kerja teruk. The salesman promise me RM100 petrol only.

Finally, a 2.5V silver. Don't opt for the gps. Got RM100 petrol & touch 'n' go RM50.

Need to travel 500km tomorrow.

Bought this car in klang valley. Tomorrow, heading back home.

Right after toyota open it for booking.

Fuel consumption kl to perlis: ~RM60 (average 90-140 km/h) ron95 Petronas

According to the owner's manual page 309, I can only play dvd video when the engine is stopped and the parking brake applied. Dang.

Wooooooo. I'm not even 40.

Why I choose Camry in the first place:
1. I can't afford to buy a conti.
2. I can't afford conti maintenance costs.
3. At my place there are only Toyota and Nissan (and national cars) service center exists.
4. I did test drive Teana, and I felt that Camry is better.

My friend who bought teana end up buying a small chinese car for daily use and only teana for long distance travel only due to the high fuel consumption.

My new 2.5V only costs me around RM60 from kl to Perlis.

What I did was accelerating the car within the 'eco' range. The 'eco' indicator will disappear if the speedometer goes beyond 140km/h and if I aggresively push the accelerator.

Even my 2 months old Latio 1.8 Sport consumes more fuel.

Btw, imho, this car is not that luxury, even though it is better than all my current and previous cars. Please note that this is my first car in this segment.

P/s:
1. I like the fact that I can use my phone via the audio system, but too sad that I cannot play video while driving. But then, even Grandis won't allow playing dvd unless the handbrake is on.

2. 400km more to go before the 1st service.

If I am richer I would drive an Audi, but, for now I chose Camry between teana and accord.

I know nothing about vsc, but I thought supercar has a racing mode which disable all these equivalent features in order for the driver to enjoy speed. Please do correct me if I'm wrong. I'm a kind of noob about cars.

The rightmost meter shows the fuel consumption.

Even airbags won't helped at this speed.

My 2.5V came with free toyota solar and security film. It's a clear one.

It's 100% city.

Maybe because 2.5 uses different engine and six speed gear box.
Drive on highway within eco range from kl to perlis RM60.

I try my best to drive within the eco range. No more than 140km/h.
In other words, I try not to let the eco green light from disappearing.

P/s: Perhaps your city is different from mine.

Added on June 25, 2012, 2:45 pmThat's why I avoid living in the Klang Valley or any other big city.

My city got no traffic jam.

p/s: When other people "balik kampung", me "balik bandar".

I live in Kangar.

I don't calculate all by myself.

But, when I first brought the car back from KL, I refuel the tank for almost RM60. This can be considered as the 100% highway.

And for the city driving, I have posted twice in this forum the gauge photo that depicted the fuel consumption.

OK. This is the first car that I don't push to the limit (yet maybe) like my other previous cars. I try to drive within the eco range. Even some of my friends shocked - why a sudden change in my driving style. It's a 2.5 engine man.

Sitting in this car reduces my enthusiasm for speed. Like you all said, it's an uncle car. But, who cares. I would say enjoy the ride.

Perhaps, the green eco light that disappearing when I push the throttle harder or when the car exceeds 140km/h that contributes to this scenario.
