wife's response to turbo purchase
So when I bought the turbo I never expected the wife to use it as a negotiation tactic (a.k.a. raping/torture) to get a new car. Well here it is.... a 2012 Camry V6, loaded with EVERY option. I gotta be honest at first I was mad, but now I am loving it. The color is AMAZING. The V6 is VERY tourqy and linear, the upgraded sound system is unbelievably bassy, and for a sedan I'm happy. Still a bit of a shock to now have the payment, but I guess what the hey! :-) I'm going to get some good pics later, but for now here's a preview. What do you think should be done to this beast?
My ideas are.........................
remove terrible pinstripes (DONE!!!!!)
Hexis Paint protection film
8000k HID headlights
4500k HID foglights
TRD lowering springs
...... any other ideas? Remember this is the wife's daily, so I gotta keep it quiet and comfy :-).

Nice. I look forward to hearing how it holds up as I have a few friends with new Toyota vehicles that are complaining about alot of issues, all luckily covered under warranty. I wonder if the Toyota quality has declined or if these are just outliers?
And...wives will always find someway to make you 'pay' when you do or buy anything for yourself. My wife does it all the time, even though I save my money separately for a long time for any car part.

A friend just got the is same exact car color and all just got the BBS wheels and he loves it. I whent for a drive in it and i have to say its a very nice car the interior on these look amazing.
I worked for Toyota for 4 years and have drove a lot of the older Camry's up till this body style and have to say this is the best one yet.
Awesome purchase man will be a nice get away car when your not driven you S.
Now on what to do with it i say wheels, Tint the front 2 windows and the TRD springs like you said. I think some 18in Gunmetal BBS's would look nice as hell on this car.
