Wind and road noise. Cheap interior. Noise in the front end that could not be found (factory rep included in the search). In the shop 5 times with many parts replaced but no fix.
I would not recommend this car to anyone.
This is the best performing (engine/response) that I have owned since I was a kid, but it simply is a pain to drive because of the rattles, squeaks, moans, and groans that it makes.
Had you kept your '98 Camry, it wouldn't have been any better or a car. They have their own fair share of reliability related problems. And besides, most of them have a noisy and weak 4-cyl. engine.
