    2005 Toyota Camry LE. I now have the newest and nicest looking car in the family. Bought it right before Christmas because my 1993 Toyota Celica was falling apart. This car is just fine with me. No wishes for any other at this point.

    :shocked :wub :oops: You put us to shame!

    So how does it drive?

    Have you had any problems with it at all (inside and out)?

    How does it compare to the other cars you've had?

    Would you go for one again?

    Well a week after I had it (9000 miles) a big-end bearing in the engine failed :( :( so it had to go back to the dealer for a new engine to be installed!!!! Then the bluetooth/voice recognition failed, so once again it went back but was fixed pretty pronto!

    Despite that and the typical Ford Trim issues it is a very good car!!! The expression on BMW owners faces when I blow 'em away on the dual track is priceless!!! Passats are an easy target too!!! The car is very quick; even a Honda Civic Type R cannot get past me!!

    It's very comfy inside and is equipped with Recaro racing seats. It also has an inbuilt Denso DVD Sat Nav Touchscreen display...

    Would I get another one?? Probably not, I'm starting to feel drawn to Mercedes Benz motors...haha!!!

    The ST is a workhorse for me as it carts me kit about, so it's getting well battered inside!!! LOL:biggrin

    Wow bit extreme with the engine - as long as they were they efficient in fixing it for you - that's the main thing!!

    Er, yeah - with that engine - that's why those are so great - they look subtly sporty (well VERY sporty in your colour), but a lot of people just don't expect em to be so quick - you must have fun. :biggrin

    Somewhere, I have a photo of myself working on a Yellow Testarossa - it might be in my toolbox.

    I went home at lunchtime to change out of my smelly clothes, phoned my mate and told him I had won the lottery, and taken my car in to my old works to store because I didn't want it scratched whilst I went on a cruise to the Carribean.

    Within an hour, he turned up at the garage. If that wasn't enough to make him drool, I told him the Ferrari dealer had leased it to me whilst I wait for my 355!

    I kept it up for about twenty minutes, then he asked if I could take him out for a blast. I reversed out of the workshop, but then had to tell him it was a wind up! - Not even the owner took it out, although we gave it some sh!t on the rolling road :biggrin

    Some of the pranks we used to get up too......

    Yes, but the questions is, did she leave your nads behind or take them with her for a souvenir? Inquiring minds would like to know.:biggrin

    A picture springs to mind of Arro's car with Gav's nads dangling from her rear view mirror - SHUDDER

    Remember, objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are.
