Replying to: james108 (Aug 29, 2008 11:59 pm) James, it has been 7 months after you posted the transmission issue, is it still OK? any other problem with 2009 Camry V6? Thanks. Replies to this message: james108 (May 24, 2009 8:50 pm)

Replying to: accordhunter (Mar 24, 2009 7:13 am) Oh, I've not visited this site for a while. My Camry v6 has been running well. The squeezing sound is actually coming from the panel when the car is cold. I think I was expecting the Lexus quietness from the camry v6, but I think it's acceptable for a great car at this price level. I'm very happy so far.

It comes down to that age old argument... If you're looking for a comfortable car with a sofa like ride while having the personality of Ben Stein in Ferris Bueller's day off, you buy the Camry.   If you're wanting a car that isn't quite as cushy but actually has some driving enjoyment with better build quality, you buy the Accord.

Replying to: hybrid93hatch (Dec 27, 2008 5:33 am) I bought a Camry this year after also test driving an Accord. Both were nice cars, but the deals on the Camry were much better. They are a bit different, but I don't think as much as some claim. If rattles bug you, my experience has been its an issue on a lot of Honda and Toyota products. You may want to look at the 2010 Fusion. I think they are built a little tighter than either Accord or Camry. Can't say much about the Malibu. They weren't offering the good deals they are now when I was buying and there was just something I didn't like about the entry and exit ergonomics when I sat in it during the auto show. I'd test drive all four of these, narrow down the ones you like best and then go by price.

Replying to: ashwinkumar96 (Oct 13, 2008 8:01 pm) I had issues with my last two Honda SUV's so I have moved to a toyota Camry. Previously always had Honda's over approx 20 years (Accord, Prelude, CR-V and Pilot). I have a V6 Camry 2008 LE.   It does have a great feature that allows you to have a manual transmission/standard shifting which is great in the snow, I live in New England.   I would beware. There are a lot of nice features but it vibrates on the highway once you reach 65-75. This did not happen in a test drive on the highway. This was noticed in the first week of ownership, November '08. It is not a tire balance issue. Have gone back and forth with the dealer and Toyota Corp which has stated it is by design, although it doesn't seem everyone has it. I am heading to arbitration. The bluetooth is great, but eventually gives intermittent problems and Toyota doesn't stand behind it.   Check disputes and complaints about any vehicle you are thinking of purchasing, if you have time.   good luck
#2804 of 2806 What i noticed from pricing on Edmunds. by jason50 Jul 24, 2009 (8:20 pm)
that the Camry is lower priced, but when you actually go out shopping for both the Camry and Accord, the Camry is priced higher than Accord. If you look at Edmunds, the Camry costs less. It is also harder to negotiate on the Camry vs. Accord. Strange but true. I remember back in the day when dealers wouldn't negotiate on the Accord.

I remember back in the day when dealers wouldn't negotiate on the Accord.   My guess is that Toyota knows how to play game very well. They introduced the '10 Camry as soon as it's allowed by the law, Feb. 2009, ( I read this some where on how early they can introduce a car). You cannot find much deal on the '10 Camry b/c the dealers want to get rid of '09. Even if they don't have many '09, they don't have to sell the '10 low b/c they have many more months to sell them.   I bet it will be harder to negotiate for the '10 Accord if they have them on the lot now. I just don't understand why the '10 Altima or '10 Accord is not out yet. Replies to this message: bvdj84 (Jul 25, 2009 4:28 am)

Replying to: gooddeal2 (Jul 25, 2009 4:13 am) But, that could throw the cycle off for the Accord. As the new 08 model did not arrive until September I believe. So, it could be September when the 2010 model arrives.   On my next lease, I am going to look at the date of the car before I sign for it. My car had been sitting for nearly 8mths before moving off the lot. Not a real issue, but 8mths outside sitting, that is not really 100% new anymore. Too long! I will not do that again. I am going to get a more fresh car. Or get a car right off the truck, with the wrapper on it. We did that on our new 08 VW.
