Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2007	4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	These seats seem to have been designed for someone 250 pounds. Wide, flat, and no proper support for your back. While this has a lumbar support for the driver, the poor seat design makes this uncomfortable for long trips. see full Toyota Camry review
2007	4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	It could not seat three adults, while the Ford could easily seat three large people, and give them limo-like legroom. see full Toyota Camry review
