I am in the market to purchase a used Honda Accord or a Toyota Camry. My current vehicle is a 94 Toyota Landcruiser but I am looking to downgrade as my commute to work and current gas mileage just do not agree. I have leased Honda Accords before 96 Accord EX, and 98 Accord EX Coupe. I never had a problem with my Accords (except for the reacall on the 98) but that was years ago.
I would like to know from peoples experience and personal knowledge what if any problems or reacalls they are aware of in Accords and Camrys between the years 1994-2004. Particularly, if there are any model years that I should stay away from.

You're going to get a car that will outlast most 3rd world nations either way, but Hondas are known for better interior materials, fit and finish. See: http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons/10245/mid-size-four-door-sedans.html
Honda: 1st Place... Toyota: Dead Last
Or you could really go crazy and buy American, but how American would that be?

As far as Toyota Camrys or Honda Accords go, you cannot go wrong with either of them. Personally I drive a 91 Toyota Camry and you know what, it has 228k miles on it and it still runs great. My girlfriend drives a 98 Honda Accord and it just drives wonderfully without any big problems. All I have had to do with both of them is maintenance work. The cars won't give you any serious problems. They both rank close, if not the highest in reliability.

My dad bought me a used Honda Accord for graduation. It is a 1997 Honda and my husband now drives it and we haven't had any problems with it. It now has 190,000 miles on it. I would reccomend a Honda Accord to anyone. It is also great on gas!!

Hondas...I am in the market as well and I have my eye on a 2000 Black Accord. They are great cars....Both are good vehicles...Nissans, Toyotas and Hondas are good!
Goodluck!

Go for the must recent model... You can afford...
That will make your investment live longer... Both brands I mean Toyota and Honda are really good ones... So your selection is smart.

both great cars that will last for as long as you want them too.
Camry: more comfortable and nicer ride in my opinion. the accord just has too much sport tuning in the suspension for my tastes.

I think both are good. I haven't heard of any recalls with the Toyota though

You can't go wrong with either.
I've experienced both that your talking about, and there very different from each other.
Drive both, and buy what you like........You can't go wrong with either
