Fit and Finish of my new Camry

My sister just got a new 08 Honda Accord Coupe V6. I will say that the fit and the finish and the interior materials are far superior to my new Camry.

The fit and finish of my Camy is terrible and cheesy . I wish I had looked at it in the day , before driving off the lot.

PS, Her Accord's paint is better too, by a long shot.

my 2 cents and last Toyota (Rattle trap) I mean.

Did you take the time to count the number of buttons the accord has? I like mine clean and simple. And i'm sure you were drawn by the bluish lights given off by the interior of the camry at night

Our new toy this week at the dealership is a new Accord V6 loaded. It was traded in and I'm not too impressed. The nav has way too many buttons and car is louder than last years model.

geez, why can't someone post their opinion without being called names or insulted. We all have different taste in cars. I love the look of the new Honda Accord, but I have been a Toyota person for a quite some time.

....

ahhh sorry, no idea of this persons history . . .

I was hammered earlier by a RUDE dude, just so uncool to cut somones head off for posting their opinion. Seems like the guys with the most opinions are the ones to "kill" others for posting their opinion.

Anyhow, thanks for clarification. I will keep an eye out . .

Ya know the Honda looks like an 05 Camry to me it is a nice car but as fit and finish goes equal. If you look close at the Honda you will see things you did not see at first. Also you might be suprised when at the end of your ownership you have spent much less maintaining your Toyota than she has on her Honda. This is a two way door however but I put my money on the Toyota. Both are very good cars mine was built in Japan and the fit is very good not to say the US built cars are not. You could trade but your gonna take a hit. Just love your Toyota and don't let the chrome and buttons fool you clean modern no BS sometimes means less worry. Gripe is good but don't let it bring you down. You seem like a cool person and you have a cool car

I like how Honda took their styling cues off of Saturn. Those new Accords are hideous, and overpriced.
