the accord hands down, when i think of a camry i think of a older person driving one, it looks so boring..in my opnion, hondas are more reliable and lets not forget best resale value

Personally i would go for the accord. It has a much better body style and you know it will last forever. Honda has gotton allot better with there vtec in the accords and now even better since the v6 comes with it, and it holds its value unlike Toyota. Iv seen alot of the Camry's cylinder heads go bad or the gaskets go out and the motor go's. I just did a head gasket on a v6 model Camry and it stinks and costs about $5k. A good way to get answers it to find recalls or technical service buttitens(TSB) that should help somewhat to.

Accord... It's a better deal, more reliable, better resale value, more comfortable ride, handles better.

Drive both and see. Accord rides a little more sporty. Camry is softer. Just depends what you like.

They're both great cars, but they have different pluses and minuses. The Accord is somewhat smaller and less passenger and trunk space, however it is definitely more of a drivers car with sportier ride and handling, as well as a bit quicker in both 4 and 6 cylinder forms. Honda also gives the sportier driver more choices, that being manual transmission in both 4 and 6 cyl models regardless of trim level. Camry - only stick is base level fours, I think. Personally, I prefer the Accord

Both Cars are very good. Some people say Hondas are better; Some say the same about Toyota. I have sold both and honestly think both are just as reliable.You will find that the Accord has a little better resale. The Camry is often sold in large fleets. When these fleets come off lease it tends to overload the supply and depreciate the value a little bit (supply and demand). The Honda Accord is not a fleet vehicle - Honda will not allow it at this point. The difference can amount to 1000-2000 after a few years. You can really get a good deal on an accord right now. The Accord is about to have a body change and they are having some really good discounts coming out.Honda's clearance event starts July 16th, but we should have the programs in place by July 7th.
