    I just got an 03 Camry SE with 204,000 miles on it. Drives so good..
  • @alexthegreat4750
    I think the Accord's design is huge improvement over the last few models. Looks more European, wish they did something similar with the Civic. It is actually a Honda I would consider buying.
  • I wouldnt even look at a vw if i had to choose one i have a 2014.5 camry love it
  • @404TRUCKERTV
    For my hard earn dollars, I would go with honda accord or camry. 30yrs of reliable track record besides all the bells and whistles.
  • @torresalex
    Very clear-minded, objective and balanced test. The best is that you take into account what each car's strengths are and to what sort of buyer those will appeal to. Good stuff.

    I don't understand why I love the passat so much. It's so plain but I can't help it

    This video should've been titled "Mazda 6 and his bitches".

    I purchased a 2014 vw passat, and so far I love the look. The 1.8T is replacing the older 5 cylinder i think and they are really really really great. It improves MPG slightly, and well, I don't know, I love it, its a great refined car, I love the fact that its ass isn't sticking up in the air like most and pretty good

    I ended up with a Camry too but sold it after a year, That fake leather dash and doors inserts were just to shiny and glossy and cheap looking and filled with hard plastics. Ended up in a Mazda6 and haven't regretted it. Love the Mazda. A lot of the dash and switch gear reminds me of my BMW 3 series. As for Mazda Reliability, we never had problems with ours, after 6 years we had to replace our transmission on one but only because my dad kept spilling full cups of coffee all over it for 6 years, and had to have the door locks replace after 8 years. That's it. No other problems. We've had four Mazdas and they gave us less problems than our Infinitis, BMWs, Hondas and Chevys. Mazdas are the only cars we've kept longer than 4 years. I liked the Malibu but I don't trust GM anymore. They knew their cars were defective but didn't issue a recall and that led to over 100 people dying. Then to avoid responsibility, they blame pre-bankrupt "Old GM" for covering it up. My moms new Cruze had three separate recalls, I like that car though, felt solid, roomy and nice but three recalls is a bit too much. I just don't trust GM's reliability and I don't trust the company.

    a Couple days ago I was dying to compare cars for myself. First car I test drove was a 2012 Toyota Camry SE and then headed to the Honda dealer (I'm a Honda Civic Owner by the way) tested a 2013 Honda Accord 4 Cylinder CVT transmission. The Accord being $3000 miles more. Well The Camry had  way better made interior (Thank you Lexus) I thought I was driving a Lexus...WOW. The panels, Dash, Doors, were very stylish and the materials were solid like a rock. The Car drove like a dream with it's 6 speed Automatic transmission so smooth and for the car only having a 2.5 4 Cyl engine, plenty of power. The car felt safe, tons of open space around you inside the cabin. After test drive I just sat in it and like WOW was so comfortable too! The Honda Accord I drove, cheaper materials inside the car, Very Choppy CVT transmission that was noticeable right away. Before even getting onto the road out of the dealership I knew the Camry so much better it's comical. I was shocked and I'm an 8th Generation Honda Civic owner and lover. In fact I like my 2011 Civic better than the 2013 Accord. True story. Previous generation but latest model way better than this new Honda. The Accord beating the 2012 + Camry LOL hahahaha good joke...That Camry is on a whole other level.
