Some of that may be true, but even mentioning Camry in the same breath as Rolls and Maybach is beyond absurd.

The Edmunds review may let some of the air out. Will be interesting to see how the new Accord compares.

And this reviewer says this Camry is really good! Right up there with Luxury Sedans! Staying number one in it's Class is in the bag!!

It's not a bad looking car and I actually like the XSE with the 301 HP V6. But being a FWD vehicle it would never find its way into my garage.

Cool

Ed Wallace from Dallas-Fort Worth is a Luxury Sedans Reviewer and he was just raving about this 2018 Camry XLE V6!

0 to 60 in only 5.5 seconds with a 4-cylinder engine is very quick!

The reviews I've read from legitimate car mags rate its 0 to 60 times between 7.8 and 8.2 seconds which is more realistic.

There is no way, no how a 3300 lb car with 203 hp can do 0-60 in 5.5 seconds. Not even with the 8 speed automatic. 8 seconds sounds about right. Not that anyone really buys a Camry for 0-60 bragging rights.
