No sir, I do not like the Camry SE ads targeted at yuppies
Ya know those ads where it's like they have the Toyota Camry SE as the perfect car for the recently promoted junior executive type? They end with some stupid slogan like, "first time getting your butt kissed," "first trip on an expense account," etc. As if now that you have that new middle-management position with a few people answering to you, you really should treat yourself with...a Camry SE. Because, ya know, it's such a wonderful yuppie mobile. Oh no, it's not like a regular Camry! It has gunmetal wheels, tinted headlight housings, a spoiler, fake aluminum dash trim and *ghasp* amber gauge lighting! Please, someone else tell me this is really stupid.

Those just look like they have brake dust on them.
I suppose that's a cool look for it since nobody would drive the car hard enough to get the wheels caked with brake dust.

I don't think there's anything particularly wrong with the car, it just doesn't sufficiently qualify as a yuppiemobile in my book. It doesn't exactly say, "ah yes, I am indeed a dashing junior executive, as you may have guessed from looking at my car." It's more like, "I got the less-un-sporty version of the Camry."
