Has any car in history suffered from greater stigma than the Toyota Camry? Synonymous with cardigan-wearing, bowls-playing septuagenarians, Toyota Australia attempted to spice up the Camry’s image with the TS-01.Unveiled at the 2005 Melbourne Motor Show, the TS-01 featured some serious re-engineering, starting with the addition of a supercharger to the 3.0-litre V6. Outputs lifted from the standard 145kW/284Nm to 185kW/320Nm thanks to 0.5bar (7psi) of boost and a new cat-back exhaust, while the ECU was remapped with the assistance of Toyota Japan.

Toyota Camry TS-01 used a 3.0-litre supercharged V6.
