Re: A Camry looking like an LS430?? [cutedh] by 307web

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.

Exterior Style Too Subjective--Discussion Meaningless.... by richards38

One person's beauty is another's beast. Unless you park near a window and gaze at your car all day, choose the car with what you think has the best interior because that's what you'll be looking at most of the time.
 
When I was shopping for an '04 car, the Accord EX-L sedan (black leather) had the classiest interior of any mid-sized car I tested, so that's the car I bought. No regrets.....Richard

You are correct. Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. If you are happy with your accord, so be it. I am really happy with my 2005 Camry XLE and it is the best decision I have made in comparison to the accord. I have an oak interior and there are camrys with the dark leather and they look exceptional. I don't regret buying my camry and you know what...I am just in my early 20's, and i still find the camry more appealing than the accord. What's your point????????

"not to mention a number of ppl complaining about misaligned dashboards" by cutedh
 
Can you direct us to the posts where a 7th gen Accord owner complained of a misaligned dashboard?

Sales Figures Are Misleading..... by richards38

I've never seen any breakdown on fleet sales vs. individual sales of popular cars.
 
Both the Camry and the Ford Taurus have been among the top-selling cars, but many were to rental car companies and other fleet buyers. I don't think Hondas are in many, if any, rental car fleets.
 
Maybe Honda doesn't want to demean its image by offering fleet pricing which could depress resale value when large numbers of late-model cars are offered for sale by rental companies.
 
Car choice by purchasing decision rather than volume would seem to be more relevant to any discussion about which cars sell more.....Richard
