Well, if you're using the "Hoffa" scale of trunk measurement, You could fit several in small packages. LOL!

But then again....why do you think they use Lincolns...LOL!

That would make it 12 "feet" wide, by 3 "feet" deep, by 6 "feet" high.
Use a Vacu-seal, lot's of room.

ORIGINAL: Camry man 08

I, as a 10 year Camry owner, having owned 6 Camry's, the 2008 as my newest, happen to like Camry's more. Who needs over 300 HP of power? MY 2008 Camry with the V6 has 268 hp, does 0-60 on 5.7 seconds, and will hit atleast 140, i can woop a altima, ricer in a civic, or alot of other things on the rode. Would i like to have a vet, sure. But there is no need to have one, in my opinion they are overrated pieces of fiberglass with an engine.



Hay starship it goes whith this one

I don't Know what they actually cost but 6 in 10 years would be more then a new corvette. I think we might have economy corvettes now.

Well lets just say, a Camry,..........$23,000 off the floor.
We're lookin' at 15 of them over the next 25 years
Now, you are buying a new Camry every 1.666~ years over the 25 year period.

Let's say the car goes up in price by $3,000 every 1.666~ years.

That's ($23,000 x 15) + ($3,000 x 15) = n
                       $345,000 + $45,000 = n
                                               $390,000 = n
 
Well, that's about 4 Vettes. So, the question now is, 15 Camrys or 4 Vettes?
A new Camry every 1.666~ years, or a new Vette every 6.25 years?
(Questions are just gettin' harder.  )
Or, one Vette for 25 years, and save about $300 g's?
2 Vettes, one every 12.5 years, and save 200 g's?

( Dang, I hate this new math.... )
