[Auto Talk] Honda Accord Or Toyota Camry? - Page 3

ToyotaFreak · 16th May 2008, 10:20 AM

Honda Accord-> Go for the V6! Has Variable Cylinder Management technology (Save fuel.).

Toyota Camry-> Well, it's reliable and nice, but too common 9If you don't mind that.

Hyundai NF Sonata-> Since you have the EF Sonata, what about upgrading to the new one? You might be able to get a good deal for the current NF in Malaysia, as an updated model was launched last year and might be available in Malaysia soon (Just look at the 2008 Korean NF Sonata TV ad, and you'll see why I recommend it.).

Kia Magentis-> Another Korean alternative worth looking at.

Naza Bestari 206-> It's a Peugeot. or in other words, it's nice, but small (Similar in size to the Toyota Yaris/ Vios & Honda Jazz.)

Peugeot 407 (CKD version.)-> Not sure if it's launched yet, but I heard that CKD assembly will push down the price of the Peugeot 407 to more affordable levels (And the preliminary equipment list is pretty good, from what I saw.).

Honda Stream-> Get the JDM spec model from Naza (Or a similar Parallel Importer.), much better equipment list, greater variety (More models to choose from.) and it's available with a 1.8 or 2.0 engine and 2WD or 4WD.

Toyota Alphard, Honda Elysion/ Elysion Prestige & Nissan Elgrand-> They're the king of all JDM premium minivans. Nuff said.

Kia Magentis-> The last Korean I will buy.
Naza Bestari 206 -> Seriously underpowered.

But they are all still a totally different price class altogether. That's the thing. Even Volvos are REALLY expensive.

If I can't afford nice cars, stick to cheaper and more reliable Japanese.

Why fight with the rest of the people for cars which is as common as bread and butter?

Hey TF!!

Hmm.. The V6 is only available as the 3.5L engine which costs a BOMB! The price premium can pay for 20 years of FREE fuel!

Yes, was thinking about the new NF Sonata. Looks damn good. Great set of features for a good price. Unfortunately, the resale value for Hyundai and all Korean makes are damn bad. No idea why.

The Kia Magentis is the same thing as the Hyundai NF Sonata. Same car, just a different body IIANM.

LOL!! The Alphard and those jumbo minivans are monstrous la.

What about the Honda Civic? Or the yet-to-be-released-here Nissan Taena?
