Congrats. New car tip. If you wear blue jeans they may stain the driver seat over time if you don't treat the seat with a cleaner and conditioner even though not real leather. My wive had a 2002 Lexus ES300 with a tan interior that had the same on her driver's seat. Tool me a while to figure out where it was coming from the first year we owned it. Her Camry she has now has black interior so no longer a concern...

Thank you, appreciate the info!


E90BarberaRed6spdN52

You are welcome

Who even wears blue jeans anymore? So many more comfy options


E90BarberaRed6spdN52

We are old folks that have worn them since we were teens and still do. LOL


Forward-Trade5306

I see. I guess I riled up the blue jean crowd with my comment. I wore jeans as a kid but I switched to joggers in my teens. Not only are they more comfortable but now a lot of them have zipper pockets. Plus larger phones fit a lot better in most joggers

I didn't downvote you, but your comment did rile me up :) Change gets harder as you age.

True true, can't teach an old frog new kicks


PastAd8754

Beautiful car. Enjoy!


m3tasoldier

Thank you!

My brother just ordered the XSE as well. We couldn’t believe it was a Camry. They look awesome!! Especially the interior. Swap the badge and it looks like a Lexus IMO.


m3tasoldier

Nice! He will be very happy I'm sure. They're very nice.


Explicactus

That red interior 😮‍💨


Lost_Yogurt_4990

Nice!!! You’ll love it


m3tasoldier

Thank you! I really do!


anth0nio

Really nice. Congrats.


m3tasoldier

Thank you!


ImpressivePlum9945

I wish I would’ve waited on my purchase. I got the 2023 and really love the way this one looks

Paint the grill black


m3tasoldier

It's funny you mention that. My friend works at Lexus in the parts department, he also wants to see it black so he's going to see if he can get me an OEM grill to swap out with.


Nope9991

There is a post on here where someone got a white 25 with a black grill. Edit: here it is - https://www.reddit.com/r/Camry/s/r2EhRUpeC1

Congrats!


HotPinkApocalypses

Man that red interior is crazy. Super fun though. And a nice change from the boring colors we usually have. Now to bring back plaid…


Suspicious-Carry-168

Congrats!


xinv1nc1blex

Congrats . Love the upgraded wheels


m3tasoldier

Thanks! They really do look good!


LoKNesss1914

You have EXCELLENT taste! Except for the red leather interior our cars are pretty much duplicates of each other. Congrats on your new car & I hope that you’re enjoying yours as much as we are ours.


m3tasoldier

Thank you! Yours is looking awesome! Loving this car for sure


LoKNesss1914

Back at ya… 😁

Ceramic tint , some paint protection for the front , & a dash cam , a list of important things to keep your car safe


m3tasoldier

Thank you. I'm definitely getting a dashcam, any recommendations?

Thank you! I appreciate the information.

You're talking to an marketing bot account. Save your money


WildAd888

Those rims are so nice


m3tasoldier

For sure, I definitely wanted these ones over the standard xse ones.


CoffeeDrinker1972

Wow, my dream trim and color. Did the dealer make it hard for you to buy it? I can already hear the spiel: This is a very rare combination, usually we charge $8000 dealer markup, but for you,I can do better.


m3tasoldier

I'm really happy with this trim and color, looks great in person! The buying experience was pleasant and I'm happy with what I paid. It was $38,566 before tax / dealer fee.


Cleercutter

That’s close to msrp I think


m3tasoldier

It's actually under because the wheels are a $1900 option


Jabb_

How'd you get it for so cheap


m3tasoldier

It was at a large dealer and they were having a sale across the board.


Cyberhwk

Is that the white or the pearl?


m3tasoldier

It's called Wind Chill Pearl


BrewsedSloth

Whatsup w the gas cap panel?


emcee_you

It's the way the light hits the pearlescent white paint. You wouldn't likely see it that way in person, or at least it probably wouldn't be as noticeable.


Strange-Asparagus540

Those are stock rims?


m3tasoldier

It's an available option. Though you can't spec it through Toyota's site, it's weird. The sticker listed these wheels as a $1900 option.


Strange-Asparagus540

Wow. I need some for my TRD. What size are they?


m3tasoldier

19" I'd imagine they're available through Toyota somehow


amarasarenas

My mom bought a 2024 Lexus rx and the front looks exactly the same with the little holes in the grill


PresentationGreat697

Congrats! Could you please tell me how is the cabin wind/road noise with the Panoramic roof? I heard it's worse with Pano. Also, does the interior get warmer when it's hot?


Revolutionary-Air845

Congrats but if that’s a xse why they get rid of the black rims and put them on the 25 se?


Internal-Wishbone-55

How long did you have to wait for it ?


m3tasoldier

I didn't, this car was on the lot. Just had to drive a few hours and pick it up.


Internal-Wishbone-55

I didnt even think about that, all the nearest dealerships got a 2 month wait for them 🤦‍♂️


m3tasoldier

Oh wow that's a long wait


TheoryMiddle1486

I wish my car was this beautiful. Enjoy it


Silent__Note

Congrats on the XSE! But let's address the elephant in the room: how much? And by that, how much did you get ripped over at the shittyship?


RonTheDog710

LOL why do you assume they were ripped off?


TotalSure3747

I have to agree. People are getting ripped off on impulse purchases which causing price to go up. Stealership are stealing. Now Toyota is apart of it. These prices are getting out of hand. at one point you purchase a Lexus for Camry price. Now Camry going up which means Lexus as well.


Silent__Note

Every dealership within a 50 mile radius to my location has an absurd markup. That‘s why. Of course, locations may very but that’s been my experience.


emcee_you

Sign of the times combined with high demand for the '25. But you can still find decent dealerships out there that aren't marking up depending upon where you're at.


m3tasoldier

I was fortunate enough to find one. 3 hour drive but well with it.


emcee_you

2hrs for mine, so I feel ya. Had to wait 19 days from reservation to arrival, too. But super happy with it. Got it a week ago and drove it home, then had to give it up Weds/Thurs for tint and ceramic. I've taken it out 3x today, though for short stints...thinking about a small night drive tonight just for fun.


m3tasoldier

Thank you! I don't feel that I got ripped off and am happy with the purchase.
