Replying to: lmacmil (Jan 14, 2005 9:49 am) Rumor has it though, that the next Camry will debut ahead of expectation. The last Camry debuted as an '02 MY in the Fall of 01, meaning a Fall 06 release as an '07, but I've read unconfirmed reports that the debut will be in Spring of '06... likely as an 07 if thats the case. One report had it early as fall of this year, but I find that hard to believe. ~alpha |

The current Camry is essentially the same as the Toyota Mark II sold in Japan. An all-new Mark X was recently introduced there and could be close to what the next generation 2007 Camry will look like. See it at the site below--click on the small photo for more pics......Richard http://www.infomotori.com/a_52_IT_13721_6.html

Replying to: richards38 (Jan 17, 2005 3:09 pm) ___Thank you for the link … The Mark X is a RWD automobile? That is not an easy transplant if they intend to make a FWD version for NA? ___As far as appearances go; it looks Jaguarish from the front end and the previous gen Acura TL from the rear to me? It will place a lot of pressure on the Accord’s total sales and pricing holdup later on this year more then likely given Toyota’s 2007 Camry release means early to mid 2006 as an actual release date. ___Good Luck ___Wayne R.

| tough choice between these two, but just learned that Toyota has a $750 rebate plus 2.9% financing, this may make the difference in choosing . plus Toyota comes with a longer warranty, power seat,and larger trunk. but of course the Accord comes with more zip, better handling, telescoping wheel. This is close. One other factor, it seems there are more camry LE's on the lots, then Accord LX's to choose from. | |

comparing similar hierarchy models, it seemed the Honda had a more refined interior (some of the Camry's dash trim was downright cheap). The Honda also had a "firmer" feel than the Camry (firmer seats, more robust lumbar support, etc.). Whatever....both Honda and Camry sell very well. |

Driving the Accord is like riding a touring bike, with a wooden seat, over rough roads!! You can feel every bump, bounce and shake. Handling qualities in both Camry and Accord are not much to brag about, since they are both FWD. Camry's seats are much softer, more cushiony, more comfortable, with just the right amount of back support. The Camry's ride is much quieter and smoother, more like luxury cars. In fact the Camry's ride quality comes pretty close to the top Lexus sedans. It just has more chassis twisting and body rolling in hard maneuvers, things that are barely perceptible to experienced drivers, whereas the Lexus always feels rock solid. Unless you are familiar with the ride qualities of luxury and high-performance cars, you would never be able to discern the Camry's ride quality compared to the Accord's. Drivers should feel more tranquil and less fatigue in a Camry, especially on long trips, for women, children and older people. As Camry and Accord are roughly equivalent in prices, features, performance and reliability, I would favor the Camry to reduce the amount of wear and tear on the bodies and minds of drivers and riders, especially during the long hours of commute or long road trips. After all you want the car to work for you, not you working for the car! For fun and excitement, I have plenty of computer games, some far more exciting and challenging than taking the risks of tearing up roads and terrorizing traffic with my car everyday, as a few Accord drivers think they should. Test drive all expensive luxury cars, Lexus, Acura, MB, BMW...before buying your next cars. The guys at Jim Falk's Bevery Hills Lexus will give you a free wild ride that would proves the worth of luxury cars. No, I don't work for Toyota!
