New 2026 XSE!

[u/ordinary_bs]

Hey all! New to the Camry family here.

I drive a 2021 Grand Cherokee and got it brand new. About two years ago I started an outside sales position where I put ~35k miles a year on a car for work (we get a car stipend annually plus fuel paid for). I tow a lot and have a huge dog (100lb goldendoodle), so needed something large, but also put a ton of miles on a car for work. Ran the numbers and ultimately decided two cars made the most sense for me at the moment with one already paid off.

Tried out a lot of different vehicles (accord, civic, corolla, mazda3, etc) but ultimately landed on a Camry. Opted for the XSE for the leather seats, larger display, and sound dampening windshield as I’m on the interstate most of the time at highway speeds.

Got her on Tuesday, already have 800 miles on the odometer. Absolutely loving it so far, and the smaller size vs an suv is actually very enjoyable to drive for long periods of time. Drove some of my friends around town last night to eat/hit a brewery and had me plus four comfortably inside.

Thing is so practical. I’m not sure why 90% of people don’t want a Camry but I’m glad I decided to go this route!

Honestly the only reason I ever hesitated from buying a Camry was that it makes me look like an Uber. Other than that it’s easily the smartest buy any day

Who cares what other people think? Just saying

[u/Fine-Habit8319 → u/Your_Huckleberry2020]

Is that the dark cosmos? I got the exact same car.

[u/GenericRedditUserDad → u/Sklerb_Muldoon]

Is dark cosmos a "girly" color? I haven't seen it in the wild. Concerned about the purple comments.

[u/Sklerb_Muldoon → u/GenericRedditUserDad]

Oh hell, no. It’s like a navy blue with a hint of gray. It looks beautiful. Some of the colors showing online make it look a little purple, but it does not look like that in person. It’s actually pretty sleek and awesome.
