Default Quad tips mock up

Well one of the great folks in photoshop section photoshopped quad tips stacked like the f models. I really it a lot. I have asked for a traditional setup pic too but here is the f style.

It looks alright. But it doesn't move me because to me, it seems like the owner is trying to make the car something that it is not. But that's just me and it's YOUR car.
How about getting the 2017 rear-end instead?

Not bad, just don't make them too big. I also really like Audis, and a friend's S4 stock quad exhaust is done nicely on it. Then again, it does make a nice rumble sound from the twin turbo V6 on that thing machine!

Quads on an ES just doesn't fit the character of the ES...that stacked looked also seems like the owner is trying too hard to make their car an F but doesn't have the performance to back it up...but do what you want.

That look would be very popular in some areas.

Next time ask daddy to buy you a Honda Civic and save him a few dollars.

I'd take a look at the new Camry exhaust for your guide, which has quad tips. I think it was well done.

Why not do the hybrid mod? No tips at all It's a lot cheaper too.

Just pulling your leg, that's all. You shouldn't make each tip top small because that would look odd. Then again, I've seen Cayennes with massive quad tips that look utterly nuts so a good balance is key.

Quads on a Camry... come on a Camry. But yea I will look at those tips as a guide but they are a little to small. Don't get me wrong I don't huge tips by any means but they have to be a good size to fill in the space.

Quad tips belong on an ES350 but not on a 300 hp sport edition Camry?

The new se has 300hp? Damn that's impressive. I want to get quad tips as I feel it would complete my look esp since I have the spoiler. And I'm getting muffler delete anyways so why keep the stock tips.

They haven't released the official numbers for the new Camry yet, but it has the same V6 as the new Highlander, which is 295 hp, so it is expected to be about the same.

Oh nice. Hopefully the 7es will be based off ga-l platfrom. So it can finally have its own chassis and a new engine.

We're off topic now, but I don't believe the ES will use the GA-L platform, as that's RWD and I don't believe the ES ever will be. I fully expect it to continue to share a platform with the Camry/Avalon. The good news on that front is the new Camry chassis seems incredibly capable. I suspect the next GS, if there is one, will use GA-L.
