#1934 of 2806 over invoice? lighted mirrors by rutger3 Jan 24, 2005 (7:46 am)
(jjnikk76):My comparison was between the Accord LX vs. Camry LE (not XLE). This is a fair comparison. The LE version does not have lighted mirrors.   (alookman): You can get a camry for invoice or lower, just like an Accord. The difference now is the camry offers a $750 rebate.

Replying to: xcel (Jan 17, 2005 4:59 pm) I would love to test drive a RWD Camry with VSC and curtain airbags anytime. Would be a fantastic car. When will it be available in the US?   I am sick of FWD cars, including the Acura RL, TL, and Lexus ES330, which does not want to do turns, besides the 2 seconds hesitation problem with the E throttle....   RWD cars are FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well the new RL is AWD not FWD.

Replying to: venus537 (Jan 22, 2005 12:48 pm) I am talking about camry's interior styling. Imo, the camry looks more refined than the accord. I am talking about the quality of material. First comes the Camry, then the passat and in 3rd comes the accord. Look at CR. Replies to this message: venus537 (Jan 29, 2005 8:00 am)

Replying to: venus537 (Jan 22, 2005 1:21 pm) First of all, my dad owns a lexus and i have the camry XLE and i have driven his lexus. They are very similar to each other except for the Lexus having a little more superior quality material and more standard features. I would say that Camry is so much more refined than the accord, it is so much more quieter and has an unbelievable suspension, great looks. The accord is one of the ugliest cars I have seen out there, not to mention a number of ppl complaining about misaligned dashboards Hey...you are entitled to your own opinion as are the hundreds/thousands of other ppl that have made the camry the #1 best selling car in the US. And, btw, maybe they like the isolation whatever that means. I hate the tiny armrest in the accords Replies to this message: peterpan (Jan 24, 2005 7:42 pm) cutedh (Jan 24, 2005 7:43 pm) ktnr (Jan 25, 2005 5:20 am)

Replying to: cutedh (Jan 24, 2005 7:17 pm) I agree with you that the new Accord is UUUUUUUgly big time, both the profile, front and tail ends!   The Camry's styling is OTH very agressive but cute and cool. It's peppy, smooth, quiet, solid... very close to the lexus LS430. After a few years, the Accord's seat fabrics and the plastic interiors would start to fade, cracked, flaked and peeled, but not the Camry.   I have a Camry LE I4 that was parked outdoors for 16 years. The paint faded in spots but the seats and the plastic interiors are 100% intact. It's also in great shape with 250K miles with original engine and AT. Everything works fine in it. It cruises safely and comfortably at 90MPH. It's stable at high speeed even with original struts. I cannot ask for much more in a car.   I was thinking of replacing engine and xmission mounts to make it smoother. The guys at the body shop told me they see a lot of Camry I4 with 400-500K miles still running strong, as owners still spend money fixing dents on them.   My friend has a 10 years old Nissan Maxima whose seats and plastic interiors are all cracked and broken, including door panels and handles.It also has a bunch of other problems with the engine and transmission.   The people who enjoy the Accord's rough ride and cheap interiors must be used to riding oxcarts in China...with genuine leather seats hehehehe Replies to this message: cutedh (Jan 24, 2005 7:43 pm)

Replying to: peterpan (Jan 24, 2005 7:42 pm) The accords interior is very unimpressive to me and the woodgrain trim seemed so unnatural and cheap. I love the moonroof feature in the camry a lot better than the accord which is manual.
#1943 of 2806 Re: A Camry looking like an LS430?? [cutedh] by 307web Jan 24, 2005 (9:33 pm)
Neither is great-looking. The the new grill and tail lights on the 2005 Camry is an improvement, but the Camry still is NOT good-looking especially on the sides. The dashboard of the Camry looked dated even in 2002 and is only slightly better for 2005. The Mazda 6, Altima and Passat have better styling than either a Camry or Accord. What competing 2005 sedan DOESN'T have better exterior styling than a 2005 Camry or Accord? Only thing close is the new Galant. Exterior styling are the worst attributes of BOTH the Camry and Accord. Seems like they were in a contest to see who could out-ugly the other and there is no "winner." These are cars you buy for reliability and reputation and try to close your eyes to the appearance. If it wasn't for the quality reputation of Camrys and Accords that allow people to look past the styling, I think these would have both been sales disasters on the scale of the Pontiac Aztek. It is a waste of time trying to debate which is the worst-styled of these two.
