Bought a new 2026 Camry LE

[ChrisMU]

Following up on my recent post about an Avalon replacement… here’s my new Camry. I also test drove a Prius. Camry had more headroom, rear air vents, and I didn’t like the Prius shifter. I had intended to buy a base LE model with the convenience package, but they only had one in white at the dealership we bought from. Considering the SE meant dark cosmos was a color option, which was our favorite. I will be getting different skins for the black wheels, as well as removing the black overlays on the chrome emblems. First dealership sales guy wasn’t budging much on price on the LE and straight-up told me he would rather sell it to someone paying more. No way was I going to pay $37K OTD for an LE. So, we drove to a competing dealership and bought the SE for $1,100 under invoice.

Dark Cosmos is definitely my favorite Toyota color right now, followed by Storm Cloud.

Nice! Enjoy and thank you for sharing.

For future reference block out the plate, I know you're in Texas, but you never know what type of strange people this forum may attract.

Camrys are the best deal in Toyota hybrids right now. Enjoy the road hugging weight!

OMG! A racing Camry! That's all these little old ladies need to see here. They already think they at the International Speedway!

Looks good... like that dark cosmos color. I like the more roomier mid size carmrys

Beautiful color! Sweet car-- may you have many years of faithful enjoyment of it.

I guess the first guy has never heard the phrase, "do you want part of something or all of nothing?"
