Replying to: eriches (Jan 02, 2008 2:58 pm) Good to know - and who wouldn't thunk it, I guessed right!   Thanks for responding, by the way.

Replying to: chavis10 (Jan 02, 2008 1:00 pm) chavis10: On an objective level, the Malibu lost points for its poor braking performance and its mediocre acceleration numbers -- check the performance chart. On a subjective level, it earned lower scores than the Accord on editors' evaluation forms -- four qualified IL/Edmunds editors participated in the scoring process. -- Erin Riches
#377 of 642 Why not the SE? by texases Jan 02, 2008 (3:09 pm)
I keep being baffled by all the comparos that use the Camry LE. Why not the SE? It'd fit in the budget, and would be more to their liking.

Replying to: eriches (Jan 02, 2008 3:27 pm) w/o options it'd be 22,900, including delivery, and it has alloys.

Replying to: thegraduate (Jan 02, 2008 1:07 pm) I guess wait till Consumer Reports comes out with a road test on the new Accord. They'll report the mileage on a car that has over 5K miles and driven under normal driving conditions. I'm looking forward to the diesel Accord which should do well in terms of gas mileage.   With the available 190 HP I4 and the upcoming diesel engine I don't see the Malibu leaving the Accord behind.
#381 of 642 Camry versus,Accord versus Malibu by jray4 Jan 02, 2008 (3:40 pm)
I've driven all three cars and I find the Malibu the best of the three. The Accord high revving engine is noisy when you floor the gas pedal for passing, the Malibu is quitter than both the Camry and Accord. The styling is nicer with the Malibu. The ride is better with the Malibu. Why the Accord is rated better is beyond me!! Incidentally, I know more about cars than the average person and maybe more than those who rated these three cars.

Replying to: eriches (Jan 02, 2008 3:27 pm) A base Toyota Camry SE I4 can be had without the moonroof for less than $23,000. So I don't believe that's a good enough reason. The only reason that doesn't happen is cause you have to pay MSRP for that configuration (custom order from the dealer). Whereas if you take a base Toyota Camry SE I4 with the moonroof option off the lot you can make a deal for it for less than the MSRP of the Base SE I4 w/o moonroof.

Replying to: eriches (Jan 02, 2008 2:58 pm) If that price point were SO specific, than why was the Malibu allowed to break that ceiling? Replies to this message: eriches (Jan 02, 2008 5:10 pm) texases (Jan 02, 2008 6:39 pm)

Replying to: jray4 (Jan 02, 2008 3:40 pm) Why do people complain about the results from comparison tests? They only said what car THEY preferred, out of the cars that were tested. It's only their opinion. Does that mean YOU have to like it too? Indeed not. Are you saying they really liked the Camry or Malibu more, but picked the Accord anyway? I haven't read the comparison yet, but it's obvious which car they liked from the whining going on from Camry and Malibu people.
