my guess would be a camry too
it's not likely going be a newer car because they don't use those lenses anymore.. its bigger and bulkier now with a lot of space inside the housing

It's close but I don't think it is a Camry tail light. The corner diffuser is red but on the camry, they are off amber.
And the angle of the cover is not right as the camry has a 90 degree bend.
As for the front corner lamp, the camry is clear and has that reflective pointy shit behind it whereas this piece has the lines that goes across the plastic.

miata tails look totaly different | look at the border, and also, the colours are in the right position.
the chances of that being from a camry are pretty damn high.

I've seen those running around Vancouver before. The angle of the lamp will depend on the mounting behind it - this piece could be the corner reflector, because I don't think the taillight assembly is all one piece with a 90 degree bend.
The headlight shards are tiny, so it could be from something or other... hard to tell. Again, different years will vary...

On second thought, Camry does look like a good answer.

the amber bit is detached from the clear shell, and it broke off when the guy smacked it.
It has to be a Camry. Final answer.
Also more CSI for you:
Because it's a camry that went fast, the driver was probably drunk. Only a drunkard thinks driving fast in a Camry is a good idea. Then he ran for it, likely to escape charges of DUI. Him being run off the road by a 3rd party is another possibility, maybe he got off your lawn to chase down the 3rd party. Either way he does not think much of his encounter of the bushes and the house. Also the car must have jumped the curb at a very high (closer to 90 degrees) attack angle otherwise a Camry would lose its wheels because of its front strut design and he would not be able to get away. If there aren't a lot of circular tracks on the lawn my guess is he lost it on the road outside and backed into the yard. His vehicle is a Camry LE and not a CE as well because the wheels did not lock up and dig a train track into the yard. The base model Camry has no ABS.
If you can take some more pictures of the front lawn maybe we can deduce more facts from the trajectory and speed etc. Also the road just outside the house would be an area littered with information too.
That was CSI:Vancity brought to you by hk20000. Should you believe it? Well, do you believe in CSI:Miami? ROFL.
It's a Camry. You aren't gonna catch it. Camry = best getaway vehicle ever.
