Most people may not notice or mind, but the audio on this Camry LE is poor. But that's true of our two other vehicles also, relative to the 1995 Infiniti G20 I drove for 20 years, with its Bose audio system. I tried to find a Camry hybrid XLE with the upscale audio, but that also comes with a sunroof and big price jump, so I settled for a nice deal on this LE. This may not be a complaint about the low quality of most audios, as much as a tribute to the Bose system in that little G20: there's no comparison. This bass is boomy and nondescript, the treble is unmusical, the volume is feeble. When I retire soon and have time, I may investigate upscaling this system. This, as they say, is only a First World problem, but audiophiles beware.
