It looks a lot more aggressive than the current style. The trunk looks awfully small though...with the infamous Bangle treatment. I guess the seam isn't too noticeable on a black car. The rear looks much better than the newly revised Accord. I saw one today and thought it was a Cadillac.
Anyone agree?

Surprised no one compared this to the Hyundai Sonata.
I'm not sure I really like it yet. The grill looks Yaris to me. The tails a lot closer to the Hyundai Sonata/3GS tails (they both look similar). Headlights look very Sonata. Does have some Accord cues to it.

Looks pretty good. An evolution of the current Camry model, sort of TSX-like sporty-ish (the rear doors seem similar).
The tail end is very Volvo/LF-Sh like, a bit too close to the Lexus IMHO. The front is aggressive, interior looks good.

My main complaint is, while the headlights are not as outlandish as before, IMO the front end looks too much like a Mazda....and I am not a particularly big fan of recent Mazda stlying ei
I was going to also suggest that if Toyota was smart they would bring back the AWD Camry All-Trac to compete with the Subaru Legacy, but now that Toyota owns part of Subaru that may not be necessary.

Yes, mmarshall they need to bring back the All-tracs!! When my poor old 'Rolla finally packs it in, I'd love to get a new Camry All-trac, actually, a Coralla XRS all-trac (with manual trans, unlike the auto only AWD Matrix) would be really ideal. Hopefully the Subie connection gets AWD back into the Toyota showrooms on the car side. I love my old 4WD, now that we have a bit of snow on the ground - I am loving it even more.
Back on topic, the interior pics of this new Camry look really nice - still think the exterior is too "similar" to other things, but I guess really in this segment it doesn't matter, they all look the same anyways!

Looks pretty neat I guess - but what incentive is there (assuming prices don't get a big hike for the new gen) to buy the Avalon? The Camry has ballooned up like a binge eating newly wed.
I'm not really impressed, though the interior is attractive. Hopefully they've streamlined the underside of the car ... the exhaust hanging down like it kicked a weld was never very attractive or efficient.

As to the why buy Avalon - easy answer, Avalon is still a lot bigger car, and ultimatly it will be more luxurious.

Well, looks like my Dad will be the first in line to get a new Camry when this is introduced early next year(he has to have every new generation, what a Camry nut 
).
Anyway, the exterior looks okay. Maybe I need to see other colors, and different models(SE, XLE, this picture looks like the LE) to get a better idea of what it really looks like. I will say that this model does have more potential than the previous models. Its definitely a more bold design. What I dont like and what the Camry is famous for is SMALL wheels on a BIG body. This model is no different.
Interior looks great. Definitely a class leading interior once again. THe current gen interior was way to bland, but had great ergonomics.
