i agree with u on that one, i wish they would offer atlease a 17" option for the XLE, but make them luxourious looking , add the 17" off the solara as some option i think

Nice!! 
My mom just got hers this past Tuesday. Shes loving it. Two major complaints I had that were both addressed with the new model is the brake pedal feel and side bolsters. I HATED the way the brakes felt on Camry's. Mushy and it didnt feel confident at all. The new one is greatly improved. Also the previous model had absolutely NO side bolsters. It was like a park bench. They actually added bolsters this time.
Interior is easily one of the best in class IMO, but not Lexus like yet.
Wheels always looked tiny on Camrys. Ever since the 1st gen IMO. But there are optional 18in wheels available.

excellent choice. the front grill kinda looks like a chrysler sebring but i'm sure aftermarket replacements will come out later.
it would look better with bigger wheels with a more open design though. keep these on for a while so your wife can get used to navigating the car around curbs. 6 months down the road - if you don't have any curb rash- you shouldn't have to worry about adding wheels.

congrats on the purchase... i've already seen several new camries fixxed up with big rims and a body kit here on guam. This car really looks nice dressed up! unlike its predecessors that no matter what you put on... body kit/rims.. it still looks like a family sedan... this one can really dress up to be rugged or family or ricer.. etc.. heheh...
