Let's wait and see. Sometimes it's hard to predict in advance. Look at the Sonata, for instance, which went from one of the worst cars on the market to one of the best in just 5-7 years....and Mercedes, which did the opposite....going from some of the best cars to some of the worst in an equal time span.

BTW, as far as the Camry is concerned, I thought the third-generation (1992-1996) was far and away the best one...and it has been downhill ever since, though the car has kept the ride quality and refinement it is known for. Strangely, though, its Lexus ES300 / 330 cousin seems to get better each generation.
