Weanesday, January But even though the list goes on, Toyota completely restyled the Camry for the 1992 model year. For 1993, furâ€" ther improvements and enhancements make Camry an even more attractive choice among family sedans. "Â¥ ince Toyota doesn‘t believe in resting on its laurels, significant P improvements have been made to the awardâ€"winning Camry. "The Canadian consumer is more @iscerning and demanding than ever before," says Toyota Canadian Executive Viceâ€"President Hector Dupuis. "That‘s why Toyota is constantâ€" ly striving to improve all of our products =even those like Camry â€" which already been lauded by the media satisfied owners alike." _ Consider the awards the Camry has received since its Canadian debut in 1983: J.D. Power Most Trouble Free Car in America, 1985; Consumers Digest ‘Best Buy‘ in 1986; Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) ‘Best New Import of the Year‘ in 1988; threeâ€"time winner of Canadian Automobile Association (CAA) ‘Used Car Performance Award‘ (1988, 1992, and 1993); Family Circle Magazine Family Car of the Year in 1989.

Lastly, Mazda has unveiled the MXâ€"6 Mystere and the new 626 which will be called the Cronos in Canada as it is in Japan. But styling was never as important with Mazda as it has become today. The previous 929 and 626 in parâ€" ticular carried don‘tâ€"rockâ€"theâ€"boat Japanese styling which was never bad, just nondescript. In Japan white is the favorite color by far.

Rounded, pugnacious lines with a wide hip line closing to a rounded tail caught everyone by surprise. Mazda couldn‘t make enough of them. With the 929 and the MXâ€"3, the stylists used the same hip line (at least I think they did) in creating cars which are generally agreed to be about as pretty (929) or as attractive (MXâ€"3) as they come.
