The all-new 2015 Toyota Camry showed its face at this year’s New York Auto Show, but until it’s going to show up its keen face in showrooms, it’s time for the automaker to... you guessed it - milk the cow with the current version!
And by milking the cow, we’re referring to all sorts of special edition 2014 Camry models. But while there is no need to introduce such things on the US market because the model still sells like hot cakes, check out what Australia got now for being a good little country.

It’s called the Toyota Camry RZ, it’s orange with black accents and you almost feel envy for not being available at your dealership too. In fact, this is the first Camry finished in Inferno Orange, the same shade you also get on the Toyota GT 86 sportscar.

However, just being an orange sedan won’t cut it so the Camry RZ also comes with black grilles and foglights surrounds matched by black 17-inch rims, a subtle but sporty body kit, a sport tuned suspension, dual exhaust system, sporty gauges, premium three-spoke steering wheel and shifter, rearview camera and a six-speaker audio system with Bluetooth capabilities.

The standard 2.5-liter engine has also been retuned a bit, now making 183 hp (3 hp more over the standard engine) and 231 Nm (170 lb-ft), while the fuel consumption is said to have remained the same 30 mpg (7.8 l/100 km).

Wondering how much this four-door “stud” costs? Well, in Australia it comes at AU$31,990 ($29,700/€21,820), which is just AU$1,500 ($1,390/€1,023) more over the Camry Altise on which it’s based, but that won’t really matter because you can’t get one.
