Shit Twin owners say:
"Redline EVERY shift"

"Change everything so it is just a Twin in name only"
"Kick the rear out every chance you get"
"I can blow anything away in the twisties"
"Drive it like it is MEANT to be driven"
"Anybody else driving a capable car in any form of an aggressive manner is a douche"

I didn't make that bit up. That was a quote from the Mayor of Toronto, John "long story" Tory. In his crackdown of cars making excessive noise, he said showboating and aggressive driving is done by mostly men to make up for their inadequacies.

If you put a 3.5L v6 in a twin it would smoke most pony cars. The xse is Toyotas sleeper/hot sedan. Idk how it handles, but it is certainly quick.

They handle just like a heavy mid sized sedan with loads of power and slightly tweaked suspension. They also make up about 5% of the Camry production so this whole "Camrys can kick our ass" sentiment is bullshit. Even the V6 numbers barely beat the Twins in any manner beyond timed drag race events.
If anybody is getting their "ass kicked" by a Camry they need to trade in their Twin for a nice minivan.

Those things can really take off, but not without making a big commotion.

I mean nothing wrong with that. You won’t lose much practicality, but you won’t be able to drive it in bad weather (high water, snow etc.) as well as you would an SUV.

The power/torque is inspiring(hilarious really), kinda feels like a Ecoboost Mustang, just with 4 doors and a less than desirable driving position.. I will not mention cornering ability, albeit surprising.. it's no Merc.

It really makes that middle aged man feel on top of the world to sum it up.

Oh ya that .1 second 0 to 60 rating over the Twins must be awesome.

Such a glorious .1 second it is. The Glorious Camry Master Race clearly is too good for you.
