Should you buy a Toyota Camry TRD? The Unfortunate TRUTH!
A Toyota Master Diagnostic Technician, Camry Owner and Car guy reviews the Toyota Camry TRD. The supposed Halo model of the Toyota Camry. Things are not good here folks.
The Toyota Camry TRD was one of the Toyota models that I looked forward to the most, I was actually getting ready to buy one when they were announced. That bubble bursted quick when I finally learned the technical details and actually drove one.
Link to the 2GR-FKS 3.5L V6 engine technical details:

This generation Camry is a significant improvement and marks a departure from the previous generations. But the TRD model falls short.
The truth about the Camry TRD will hurt many Toyota fans and owners. I love and respect Toyota as they make fine cars, However the truth needs to be said. This is a disappointment and it has to be said as it is for the sake of continuous improvement.
It is a problem when the Halo car of a Model is marketed as a "bargain buy" or isn't exclusive. It is a problem that the halo model feels like a base model.
While the Camry TRD is a super reliable car to own, other trims in the Camry line up are reliable as well. It will take a very specific buyer to make sense of the TRD Camry. One that doesn't mind the base model features, Doesn't mind the bolt on type modifications for a Halo Model. Doesn't mind the extremely harsh ride for no significant gain in handling.
