This topic might have been discussed before when the gen 7 first came out, but I ain't seen it so here goes.
I thinks it's ok, it's a Toyota after all so it's not going to be bad. Its reliable and solid like all Toyotas and has got decent performance. But.... I really couldn't live with the car's styling. Too angular for my taste, a bit too sci-fi inspired. The back espescially doesn't look too great. I like my cars curvy like the gen 6. I have to say that I am getting used to the styling now it's been around for a while but can't say if I'd ever buy one. IMO

In performance. 7th gen is better. GT is good for fuel economy, GTS for good performance. For the exterior, 7th gen has an edgier look, but it is ugly. The butt sits too high, and looks like a ship. A lot of ppl are split over 7th gen's looks, but almost all agree that 6th is the best looking. For interior, it is not as nice as 6th gen, it has more "plastic" look. The windows are so small, it is hard to see blind spots. The front seats are nice tho, but there's practically no room in the rear. 7th gen is quite a nice car, I don't think I will buy one if a need a new car.
