#7798 of 7923 Re: $21,077 [cam2010le] by mike_smith Oct 02, 2009 (4:15 pm)
Replying to: cam2010le (Oct 02, 2009 1:22 pm) I also looked at 2009 Accord before deciding to buy the Camry. the major issue for me was the brake issue that accord has and honda is not doing anything to fix it or do a recall on them. i did not want the heartbreak of having to worry about such a thing within 6 months of buying a brand new car. A friend of mine owns a 2009 Accord that he bought and had the braking issue within 6-7 months and he was very upset about it...He also owns an older version of Camry (2005) and he says that if you are looking for a smooth ride, go for camry cos accord doesnt even come close...However if you are looking for better handling (Accord has a harder power steering compared to Camry) etc etc then accord may be an option.   with all these factors i chose to go with Camry since i prefer a smooth ride over handling and the fact that i did not want to worry about any repairs for the issues that are already very widely known and too bad Honda is not doing anything to fix them.   did you test drive both Accord and Camry ?? 2010 Accord might be hitting the dealerships now, i am not sure if they added anything new in the 2010 version over 2009 version.   I was absolutely sold on the Camry once i test drove it and ended up buying the same car that i test drove since the dealership had a brand new car they gave me to test drive.   also i would suggest a lot of online/email bargaining before you actually go to the dealership. get qoutes from a lot of dealerships and have them fight amongst each other. thats the best tool and might knock several hundred dollars on the final price. Every penny helps.   Look for newspapers ads publicizing the cars are low prices, once the inventory level rises and you start seeing these ads you will notice the change in dealer attitude. For the last 2 weeks of clunkers and a week after that LATIMES had a ton of dealership ads but NO ONE had a camry on sale since there was no inventory. Check the dealer website to see how many they have in stock, this gives you a fair idea about whether they are eager to drop the price and sell or not.

Replying to: cam2010le (Oct 02, 2009 1:22 pm) Both good cars, but Camry is quieter and ride is more plush or smooth. Some people don't like this. They say the Camry doesn't corner well (like a sports car) and they don't like the "disconnected from the road" feel, and doesn't "handle" well. It's like the ride quality difference between a Cadillac and a Corvette - one is better for some things, the other is better for other things. Depends on your preference.

Replying to: trangie (Oct 02, 2009 8:32 pm) Sounds like you paid around 18,500 for just the car, not bad for Texas.

Replying to: mike_smith (Oct 02, 2009 11:31 am) This is the sad result of the double whammy brought to us by the clunkers program. It not only robs one's tax dollars to pay for other's clunkers, but also drives up the price on the popular models for many months to come. I would be a lot happier if they just hand out $4500 cash to whoever turns in a clunker. But now, for this same Camry LE, you are looking at $2k more at least.   I am sure most people who visited this forum want to get a good deal on the Camry. Now it is just not the right time to buy a Camry or a Corolla for that matter, unless you can't wait or have extra cash to throw at this.

You can get a 2010 Camry LE for $19,731 at fitzmall. I don't think you can get a 2010 LE for $17,731 before the CFC, may be in a rare case.

#7805 of 7923 Camry LE or SE by tomken Oct 03, 2009 (3:51 pm)
Looking to buy a new 2010 Camry LE or SE l4 Auto. Seems like LE based model price is around 19.8k. What is a price for SE based model? SE just look so much better than LE.

Replying to: gooddeal2 (Oct 03, 2009 2:19 pm) I'm been looking to buy a Camry for the last 2 months (before the Clunker rebate). 2 months ago I got quote for a white LE l4 Auto for $19.8k after 1k rebate. The price is good to me, but I don't like white color. Last month I got quote for around $21.5k. This month is still the same, but they have a 1k rebate for LE model, so it cut it down to $20.6k. This is in Texas. Replies to this message: gooddeal2 (Oct 03, 2009 4:43 pm)

Replying to: tomken (Oct 03, 2009 3:53 pm) Actually, toyota has been offered the 1k cash back in TX for a while, might be even before the C4C. I know it was 1K in Aug.
