which is better to have Honda Accord 2005 or Toyota Camry 2005?

Question

is it camry 2005 xli good have good motor or honda accord 2005 model

Answer 1

The Accord and the Camry both have similar price and range of option.
In my opinion, the Accord is leaning more towards performance (i.e. it's more agile). The Camry has probably a little bit more interior space (if you compare the whole dimensions of the two, Accord is bigger though), and it's quieter compared to the Accord.
When it comes to styling, the 2005 Accord looks more sporty than the 2005 Camry (Camry looks more like a family car). So this is up to your preference.
Both Honda and Toyota are popular, so maintenace and parts will cost the same for both.

Also someone I've known had driven a Camry before, and he said on a freeway, it feels light and floaty.

It really depends on what you are looking for. The Honda Accord is a much sportier body style and with that means you are going to have better handling, a little more road noise and things of that nature. The Camry not so much, it seems though that the Accord ranked higher for safety that year. I personally like th Camry. If you are that torn I would consider other factors. The Camry doesn't hold it's value as well, though it holds it value extremely well. There are more Camry's on the road (if you are interested in being more of an individual the accord is better for you). I think with the Accord this is the last year of this current body style where as the 05 Camry is the last body style. Maintenance on the Accord tends to cost a little more depending on the milage and where the vehicle is on the maintenance schedule. Though on average overall you pay less to maintain the Accord through a lifetime. For every mile in an accord with all expenses included you pay lower .40's per mile and the Camry is higher .40's per mile. You can probably get a get a much lower price on the Camry. Honestly, they are BOTH GREAT vehicles so, it comes down to preference you should drive both. Truth be told you may come out better purchasing a new vehicle for the price you would pay for a Pre-owned certified vehicle, you would be surprised how much dealers are willing to play let's make a deal. In doing that a new car though keep in mind that Honda sets a price point and limits the flexibility of the dealership so it's virtually impossible to get a Honda for Invoice whereas you can get that with a little work for the Camry. Either way, you won't be sorry.
Good luck in your quest.

I have personal experience with both Honda and Toyota and I will tell you that the Camry is the way to go. I will tell you why. The Toyota Camry is going to hold a little more value for you and it will be a better car in the long run. They are both great vehicles, but the numbers and quality speaks for itself. Ten out of the last eleven years the Toyota Camry has been the number one selling vehicle in America, period! Check the numbers if you dont believe me. It is top of the line in quality and comfort, and not to mention that the Camry shares some of the same ride and suspension as one of the Lexus models, so you get the ride and feel of a lexus without the price. A decision between Honda and Toyota is hard for a lot of people but it may make sense when I tell you that last year Toyota gained $26 billion while Honda only gained $6 billion, a combination of numbers of cars sold and the quality. Lastly, there is a huge batch of surveys that just came out from JD power and associates, huge consumer reports, and they just had a three year dependability test and there were 19 different categories that a vehicle could fall into, and this was out of every make of vehicle on the market, out of 19 possible categories, Toyota and Lexus, which is Toyota's luxury model, scored 1st place in a total of 11 of 19 of the categories. That's over half, and remeber that this is out of every make on the market, Honda, Ford, Acura, etc.... and out of the eight remaining categories that they didnt score 1st place in, Toyota didnt drop below second or third place! So that just speaks to the quality of a Toyota vehicle. And if that isnt enough, then look at almost every car commercial on tv, there is always some car, chevy, ford, etc, who are always trying to say that their car is better in some way than the camry, well why is that, because everyone knows that Toyota is the standard and in order to get others to buy your car instead, you have to make sure that you make your vehicle seem better than the standard. Just like people always refer someone great to Michael Jordan, because he is like the standard. There s a reason why every car focuses on the outward appearance of their car, because they can't compete with Toyota on a quality level, so they try to make their car seem more appealing from inside and outside, if you dont believe me, look at all the chrome accents on cars and all the stuff they put in them! Well hope that was helpful, and if you are in the Columbus area, I can find a Cmry for you for the same price or cheaper!

Answer 4

UM?! HONDA ACCORD!! (duh!)
When it comes down to cars, I'm a very hard driver, I've owned 4 Accords in the past, and purchased an 06 Accord EX-L last year. My 1994 Accord had 335,000 miles on it before I traded it in and purchased another one, and the only reason I got rid of it was because I liked the 2000 Accord models that came out, Never had a problem with it. I never even kept up with the maintenance schedule, yeah your suppose to get an oil change every 3-6 thousand miles, but hey, I was young at the time, and I would just go every 10-15 thousand miles before an oil change, just depended on when I had the time and money! Honda are great cars! Low maintenance, great gas mil age, classy look, etc!! Also, once you purchase your 2005 Honda Accord, watch the look that you'll get once you step out of your car, you'll love it!!

Answer 5

Well, it goes with preference. You can not really lose with either choice, but look at the features. Moon roofs, leather, whatever features they might have. The Accord less bland and less mainstream. Not by much, but it has a sportier feel.

Honda and Toyota both have strong reputations even though Toyota has recently had a ton of recalls. Honda had the least recalls in 2006.

Answer 6

would have to be the Honda cause the engines in them are better than Toyota but don't get me wrong Toyota is a very good car also they have good engines to just not as good as Honda but if it were me i would get a Nissan cause they offer longer lasting engines and are sporty too and I think they are the best car for long lasting engines but that's just me the Maxima is the most sporty low costing car at Nissan and the body that is the most sporty looking is the GLE not the SE the SE is a luxury car not sporty well you make the choice here just giving tips hope this helps you to choose the right car for you

Answer 7

TOYOTA CAMRY NO DOUBT ABOUT IT THEY GET BETTER GAS MILAGE AND THEY LOOOK ALOT BETTER AND OFFER MANY OF THE SAME THINGS THAT THE ACCORD DOESN'T WELL I HOPE YOU FIND THE CAR THAT FITS YOU. ME PERSONALLY I WOULD GO WITH TOYOTA THE BEST SELLING CARS IN AMERICA OH AND BY THE WAY THE BEST SELLING CAR IN AMERICA HAVE BEN THE CAMRY FOR 4 YEARS RUNNING!!
