Replying to: backy (Oct 25, 2007 7:06 pm) 2010 brings a Refreshed Altima...and from what I've been seeing a new galant should be out by 2009. If its anything like the Lancer is now, the Galant might turn out to be competitive with the value leaders of the group. What's funny is that the Midsize Family sedan forums are probably the most hotly contested forums on Edmunds.com yet NOBODY ever does many comparison tests on these cars anymore. Not yet have we seen a comparison of the new Accord verse more than the Camry. It's a shame IMO. I'm ready to see the Malibu compared to others in this class as well because I really like the 'Bu and have always liked the Aura. If Saturn made the Aura available with a I4 (which is going to be avaialble this year) with a stick shift. I'd take it over the Altima and everything else in this class except for maybe the new Accord. The Aura so far is my favorite domestic sedan. |

Replying to: maxamillion1 (Oct 26, 2007 7:42 am) The only reason why my wife didn't buy the Aura was because of a lack of a manual. The Altima was her second choice, but won out due to the 6-speed with the 2.5. |

nice quote from John McCormick- And talking of product brings us to the subject of appliances, a topic that Press knows well. His previous employer was and is the master of producing appliance-like vehicles. But to be fair to Toyota, that is the case to varying degrees with every major automaker in the world. Honda's Accord has vied over the years with Toyota's Camry for the title of world's blandest car, yet both models are phenomenally successful (and the envy of many rivals). And therein lies the dilemma for the auto industry, especially in the U.S. market.-end Auto Appliance I myself am willing to trade some degree of reliability for less boredom.

Replying to: moparbad (Oct 26, 2007 8:21 am) "the everyman's car that bonds with enthusiasts...the powertrain is marvelous. It has torque, it is hot-blooded for revs...at redline the exhaust note snarls, a lively contrast to the other cars, which have nothing to offer but a rising crescendo of whirs, hums, and buzzes. Would you buy a sedan from the same guys who engineered the NSX? Of course you would... I haven't driven a 2008 Accord, but this account of the outgoing 4-cyl model ring true for me! |

Replying to: thegraduate (Oct 26, 2007 8:57 am) They must have a different one than me. You can't hear the engine in my car at all except when you turn it on. Its not slow or underpowered, I just don't understand why they are so afraid of people knowing there is an engine in the front of the vehicle and when you push the gas, the engine speeds up. |
