[@alexha8061]

@@awakenedone7577 lol dw the car is quickest out of anything I've ever driven, but not fast. Not that I would ever go 100 over the speed limit anyways. I like to drive comfortably and safely Always sad to see a family killed in a fatal crash because of someone speeding like crazy but surviving

[@ThatGuyWhoComments1]

Bought my first car on my own at age 23 and it did indeed change my life as well, it was also a camry. No need to rely and ask others. Go and leave anywhere you want any time, long as your car works and you maintain it ofc.

Will take care of it 🚙

Dude, thank for posting this I just turned 23 and I feel like I have presssue on my self to buy a brand new car. I drive an old Honda and now seeing this just takes weight off my shoulders. It’s okay to wait to make a big purchase.

Congratulations on your new purchase! Recently bought my 2022 Corolla Hatch 2 years ago and I wish I could re-live that feeling you expressed in here haha. Before I got the hatch, the Camry was on my list too and man, it is such a nice daily and quick for what it is. But I couldn't keep my eyes off the hatch. That 2025 color is really nice! Glad I stumbled upon this video. I usually see your content on TikTok haha.

why was your salesperson looking like he bout to hit the club lmao

Haha yeah, but he wasn't the one that sold me the car cuz I went back a diff day. He helped me get my toyota app sorted out.

[@mfg15]

Just a heads up so you're not blindsided.. If you're bringing your new car when you move to CA, they will make you pay the sales tax you didn't pay when you register it. Hold off on updating your license and registering it for as long as you can.

[@LadiesMan217.0]

Congratulations on the new car man, it's really inspiring to see someone be grateful for what they worked hard for. Those seats looks very comfortable and that Camry looks absolutely gorgeous in green. I also have a goal of getting my own car one day, right now I'm either driving my mom's car when she's not using it or I'm riding the bus. One last thing coming from a car enthusiast, make sure you're always on top of your vehicle maintenance such as oil changes, air filter, brake pads, etc. I recommend you keep a logbook to record what kind of service has been done to your car, it will help you be organized. Toyota has been refining hybrid cars for decades now and they're tried and true. As long as you treat the car right it'll treat you right back.

[@JackyLi]

Thanks for the tips man. Always on that oil change every 5k!

[@luisisdelulu]

Beautiful Camry, my literal dream car. I've been trying to save up for a Camry. My uncle actually taught me how to drive in his Camry SE and I fell love since and now I hope too get one soon congrats.

that's such a sick color too, one of the best blues i've seen in ANY car; and the fact it's on a Camry, which looks fantastic this year? Toyota just can't stop winning recently.

Its a great choice and my son ask for this car too. Personally I love tesla's and have been driving one for over 3 years and the only repairs I did was a windshield replacement for $500 deductible and windshield wiper fluid. Glad you're happy. I remember my first car was a 2002 Acura rsx type s and that car was amazing but my family grew so I had to replaced it after almost 10 years.

That first drive back from the dealership is the greatest feeling man I went from 11 Camry to 21 Venza. I was thinking of going back to Camry too but loved the Crown when I test drove. Even though Toyotacare do give you free oil changes up to 25k make sure to change it every 5k if you want to keep it for long.

One of a kind feeling! Yep I plan to change every 5k miles, just did my 1k recently

[@FallenArtemie]

It ain't no sporty car but it's a top notch daily driver and Toyota did not go weak on the quality and coolness of this generation. It's gonna last a long time and you're gonna love it being there for you, congrats bro. Thank god you didn't get a CUV lol. And you 100% right about Teslas, they are very convenient but you need to have the financial foundation to make it convenient. So many people buy EVs without reliable charging access or a house to charge at and then get fussed up about having to drive it out to a charger every week or so. Additionally, they are insured as luxury vehicles even though the Model 3 and Y can arguably be less comfy than its ICE competitors. So, all around good choice on the Camry.
