| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 169-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | It was lease takeover. $149mo. for 11 months with a $13.3 buyout/resell |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | One of the biggest reasons for buying the Camry is that Toyota offers a disability reinbursment where they will pay for adaptive equipment added to the car. Now my wife will be able to drive. The Altima did not offer this. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | The 2007 Camry SE V6 is a great compromise between luxury, performance and affordability. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 157-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD | This car was a Hertz rental car. It was a very good price with a good warranty. |

| 2011 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Why pay more for less????? |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | If I have to get same features on Camry (which I got on accord), I have to spend above 30k + APR also will be high. |

| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD | Dealer was not willing to deal oter than cursory reductions. DId not want to "Open Book" pricing and discounts, tried to hide them in "lease" payments |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | Price too high and dealer would not deal. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 187-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD | Too expensive a premium for hybrid. They come stripped or loaded (mostly loaded) with nothing in between. |

| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | a great value for the money - it compares to BMW 3 series, Nissan Maxima, Saab, or Volvo all much more $ |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | The car had 5K miles on it; the price for a loaded EX-L (no navi) was $19,400. It now has 12K & is very nice especially for the price. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | its cheap! It is a great bang for the buck. I could not find a better car for 22K |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Best car for the price. Unable to obtain any like american car for the same monthly payments and we have leased for 12 years. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Got 2.9 APR for 5 Years (0.9 APR was also available for 3 Years) |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Got 2.9APR for five Years(.9 APR was also available for 3 Years) |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | Got a good deal on my vehicle, which I purchased at the end of the model year. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Paid cash. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed manual FWD | price was significantly lower than list |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed manual FWD | The Accord is priced at a very reasonable price point for the different models. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | $22K out the door; 3.9% for 36 months |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | about $1500 less than the same Camry |
| 2006 | 2dr Coupe 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | I received a $3500 incentive for buying a "left-over" car. I purchased a new 2006 Accord in Jan/2007. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 6-speed manual FWD | I must have hit the dealer at the right time because I am paying less for the V6 6SP than I was paying for a 2003 EX-L 4 cyl w/5SP and with no money down, only first months payment due at signing. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | Price was 19 out the door including tax for me new in MT. Dealership cost may be high, but the chances your car is going to break down is nil, so thats even more thirft. |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | We bought a DX with dealer-installed AC. $13,000 plus a Plymouth Breeze with a blown head gasket. Not bad for a brand new car with 11 miles on the odometer. |

| Price of the Honda Accord: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | The dealer was terrible. No price break offered or given upon my request. I walked. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | See above. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | The car is expensive, lets hope the resale stays up long enough. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | If your replacing an Accord with an older Accord, say 4 to 6 years older you will reap the benefits of their resale value, otherwise nearing $30,000 your first one can bring some steep payments and rhey expect much larger downpayments going into a lease. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | The new car prices are over rated for what you get because the value loss in the first 3 years. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | Year for year used Accord prices in my area are higher than Camry prices. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | The low deprciation is a double edged sword and V6 Accords were about $3000-4000 more than any of the Maximas I was looking at. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD | In my area used Accords cost more year by year than Camrys do. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD | Pricey to buy both new and used, but worth it for the reliability and resale. |
| 2000 | 2dr Coupe 200-horsepower 3.0L V6 4-speed automatic FWD | It was simply too expensive. |

What Our Members Are Saying about Toyota Camry Materials and Workmanship
| Available Features of the Toyota Camry: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2012 | 4dr Sedan 156-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
The interior materials are much higher quality than the Camry. The Camry felt very cheap, not like a car that costs over $30k. The Fusion felt like a more expensive BMW or Audi with the interior quality. There were no large gaps or uneven edges between materials. The exterior build quality is also better in the Fusion. The doors close smoothly and without being too heavy or too light. The hood fits very tightly with the frame. The trunk closes easily but without slamming. And, best of all, the trunk includes a little handle for closing so that you don't have to grab the exterior of trunk but can just close it with that handle. Just like my Saab does!! |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
no loose ends, everything fits right and stays in place |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 187-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
This car has had zero problems. Superior to every other Camry year and make out there. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
All materials appear to be good quality and well put together |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
I met an owner who had 350,000 miles, and the car still looked good. In 19,000 miles we have no problem, other than the squeaky brake pads, which were replaced. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Fit and finish are consistent. |

Cheap! plastic everywhere, front seats are brutal and the seat covering is cheap.Paint is thin. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Soundproofing was poor, there was a cheap feel about the bodywork, fittings were cheap looking even for a rental |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 187-horsepower 2.4L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Paint is very easily chipped and scraped |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan 157-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
The cloth on the headliner on the rear window is coming loose. In contacting a body shop that I am familiar with, this is a common problem. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 157-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Terrible paint that chips and scratches very easily. Interior panels are not held together very well. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 157-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |

the Honda materials and workmanship are a step above others, though Honda still cannot make a good sun visor. |

It is Honda. Materials are good and fitted very well. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |

No rattles or squeaks. |

The fit always seems to be perfect, doors close with a solid sound, windows work quietly & swiftly, controls always work perfectly. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual FWD |
Leather seating surfaces and dash materials are simply beter than Nissan, Toyota, Mazda or most American brands. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |

| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The interior fits and comes together as one might hope for. |

Quality and Honda reputation |
| 2006 | 2dr Coupe 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |

Very well crafted interior and exterior |

| 2004 | 2dr Coupe 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Nothing has broken or needed replacement or repair in the total time of ownership. Could not ask for more. I do take care of it by keeping it clean and at least twice a year giving it a good cleaning inside and out. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
top notch, no trim faiure in 6 years, no hardware failure either. |

After 70,000 miles, not a single rattle. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Fit and finish is very good. Take exception with cloth upholstery that stains easily and trunk that still has old style hinges that intrude into trunk space. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
very well finished |

Paint chips/scratches very easily, though I hear this is a common complaint with the new EPA mandated water based automotive paints. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Many corners are cut on the car. Such as: no underhood trim, no trim under the trunk lid, no driver and passenger lower trim covers, lack of a "close" function on the A/C vents on the center console stack. |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Again, the car has been "cheapened" |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 177-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
definitely are a bit cheaper from the previous generation, and the workmanship is below toyota and some fords |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Poor fit and finish. Much lower than my 5 previous Hondas. |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Sheet metal and paint finish is not as good as the any European or American. Fit and finishing inside and outside is very inconsonance. Lot of rattles and road noises as well. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
material that cushions the trunk is very cheap and the material on the doors look cheap |
| 2008 | 2dr Coupe 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed manual FWD |
Hard, easily scratched plastics litter the interior. Chrome door handles replaced by flimsy plastic pieces. Misaligned panels. Flashing visible on the edge of some interior pieces. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 177-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Shoddy QA/QC - rattling windows, creaks & squeaks in dash & glove box. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
It has several (admittedly minor) plastic rattles, especially in cold weather. I find that it to be inconsistent with the rest of the car which is stylish and well designed. Would be ok for a less expensive car, but not for Accord. |
| 2006 | 2dr Coupe 244-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
I have had numerous quality control issues with this vehicle. Everything from scratched glass to loose heatshields and loose seat rails. Also some interior materials are cheap, especially considering this car costs over in $36,000 Canadian Dollars (new) |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 253-horsepower 3.0L V6 Hybrid 5-speed automatic FWD |
Poor quality interior materials when compared to the Saab. Everything on the Saab was very well made with high quality materials. The Honda doesn't compare. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 166-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Everything inside the car feels cheap and junky, I suppose thats what you get for the price though. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 160-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
cheap seating material, engine makes bad sounds |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 240-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic FWD |
Transmissions and V6 engines are very unreliable. Friend owns another 2003 and he has electrical problems. Made in America quality is pretty lousy. Everyone in my neighborhood does not buy a new one when the old one dies - I plan to follow. |
