There's a reason why Toyota has the highest perceived quality in the business... because they DO.
 
I might agree with you about reliability, however, Toyota is now the recall king in the industry. Also, with the recent Avalon/Camry transmission issues I have to say they may have taken a step back. Also, you mentioned "quality". The Corolla/Matrix are the noisiest/rattiest vehicles in their segment. That is not quality. They have a feel that lacks refinement.

I disagree. I believe the "transmission issues" are overstated and the Camry along with the Honda Accord are still on top of the heap. The Mazda6 has had its fair share of problems as noted in Consumer Reports; only the 4 cylinder is recommended. In my opinion, the Mazda6 used to be the style king of the bunch, but Toyota has delivered on that front also. Kudos to Toyota for addressing the bland criticism and delivering a handsome design.
 
I predict that in spite of the "issues", the Camry will still share the throne with the Accord. As good as the Mazda6 is, it is definitely not in the same ballpark as these major leaguers.

You can disagree, but, there are thousands of posts here at Edmunds that say other wise.....

Never said it did not. However, the Mazda6 is not part of this discussion. I brought only made reference the Avalon/Camry part in rebuttal to the previous posters remark of Toyota being near perfect.

Nor is the Camry, Avalon, Accord, etc....
 
Let's all move on and leave the CamCord and 6 in the Midsize Sedans Discussion Board, shall we?

This arguement is DEAD!!!! by jcturbo

Didn't Motortrend compare all these cars a year and a half ago?? Hands down the Corolla XRS destroyed the others in Acceleration, Handling, Stoping, and MPG's. They gave the vote to the Mazda 3 though because of the optional Nav system and HID lighting.
 
They straight said the Corolla was fun to drive but it's not for Lazy Drivers!!!! and Most American's are Very lazy drivers, and believe me there's a lot of shifting going on in the XRS, nothing sounds better than dropping it from 6th to 3rd gear on the Fwy

Doesn't sound like the argument is dead with an excited post like that one!

Actually, this argument IS dead.
 
The '07 Corolla is not offered as an XRS model. Toyota killed it in '06.
