I am struck by the attractive option of the 2012 Camry Hybrid. On the other hand, Toyota has been a bit questionable lately, and it is the first year of a redesign. What do you think? ---

If you really like the 2012 Camry Hybrid and it will suit your needs then help out the economy and buy one. I would avoid a first year new model like the plague but the Camry has been around for several years so it does not fall into a totally new year model category. ---

The Camry Hybrid was never recalled for any reason. That’s a pretty good record for 5 years of manufacture. ---

I’d have no problem buying one, had it been available a year ago I probably would have. While it’s new, it’s a development of the prior model, not ‘all new’, so there’s lots of proved parts in it.
