2015 Toyota Camry to Get Aggressive FR-S Inspired Look
Toyota has promised big changes for the updated 2015 Camry and now we can report that the new look will draw inspiration from the FR-S sports car.
Much like the Corolla and Avalon received FR-S-style front-end treatments, the Camry will also make the switch for 2015, confirms a source who’s seen the car.
Describing the front end design as “aggressive” our informant said there will be a large lower mesh grille with the Toyota logo above it. The rear end styling, he informs us, will be more like that of the Lexus ES.

Calling the new look “awesome” he also commented that the interior has received significant updates and has, “much better styling and technology than Accord.”

What isn’t yet known is if the powertrains will receive updates, though our source is not aware of any. Currently Toyota offers a choice of 4-cylinder and V6 engines mated to a 6-speed automatic.
Toyota will debut the 2015 Camry next month at the New York Auto Show.

If they think that the design for the corolla and avalon looks like the front end of an FR-S, then not only are they blind, but the Camry is gonna disappoint people big-time
A lot of people seem upset by the apparent styling update, and how it looks similar to Scion. Apparently, those people prefer the bland styling of the Camry as it is now. Both the interior and exterior as far behind and are bland as heck. Can't always make everybody happy. I'm sure you all will get over it.
