You need to test drive both to feel the difference. My father decided to bught the Accord after comparing it with Camry. Accord is better overall interms of most aspects such as handling, performance, looks etc. Camry just looks to bloated and the latest facelift somehow looks desperately Audi wannabe. In terms of design, one of the most visible design aspects that you could see is the window line of both cars and you can easily differentiate which one is a real gem . Camry 2.0 also got an old school 4 speed tranny opposed to Accord's 5 speeder.

My personal experience going head to head with my father's Accord and a Camry, from 0-190 km/h Camry don't have a chance at all to even sniff my Accord's tail . As speed builds the gap is also increasing. Also Camry can't take corners as hard as Accord could. C'mon man, I thing I can say is Toyota now is not like Toyota of yesteryears . In almost every Toyota cars models (models that UMW brought in) the engine will be less powerful than the Honda cars of respective segments like:
City 125PS : Vios 109PS

Accord 2.0 156PS : Camry 2.0 147PS

Accord 2.4 180PS : Camry 2.4 167PS

Civic 1.8 140 PS : Corolla Altis 1.8 140PS (civic betters in terms of torque by 1nm )

Jazz 125PS : Yaris 109 PS
& Etc.... ( i didn't compare the civic hybrid and the prius due to Prius'es bigger engine ( by 500cc), price)

Hopefully people won't come and bash me. I'm not just a Honda fan i'm also Suzuki, Nissan man etc and only god knows how i admire the TOYOTA Supra . I'm just stating the facts. Wake up people! . Wake up.....

Thanx....

i believe the reason those who choose camry over accord is the comfort the car provides.. most we call "on-shore" uncles will pick camry.. haha they have the money n wan to be regarded low profile n wat they nit is comfort rather performance n handling.. haha

Yeah you're right. Accord offres best of both worlds (comfort & performance). That's why Accord has attracted lotsa young people.... including my father

sorry in terms of comfort,camry tapau accord!...and in this car segment comfort is the main point for customers when they choose to buy it

Then mind telling us why is that Camry and Vios sales are much higher than Accord and City?

How old is your father? 30?

dont slap ur head too hard. accord started without a higher 2.0 spec too, but to remain competitive in msian market they got one out soon after. Teana too will also have a higher spec-ed 2.0 later on. reason? bcos consumer wans it, they will have it.

40 years old. I think not in the uncle group . Actually he prefers the E46. But after test driving the Accord he fall in love with Accord. zoomckg thanx for backing me up. I hope people don't bash others. I'm just stating something that is based on my experience. Who knows your's is different. thanx.

Of course i know its his own review from his own experience. Arent we all mostly commenting based on our experience or knowledge? Kinda silly to state the obvious rite?

Opinions are always appreciated. But it should be taken across many factors not just by comparing horse power alone. I think thats silly when there are many more important factors e.g ride comfort, after sales service, resale value, specs, price, etc

teana got rear windows curtain(like camry 2.4v)?? i have seen singapore teana 2.5v6 got sun roof, our tan chong version have it?

sun roof 2.0 2.5 both don hv

tan chong alwiz so calculative. btw, this model launch two years back worldwide. so late only arrive malaysia. haiz... somemore spec is below expectation(no sun roof). good thing is the 2.5 v6 engine only.

haiya not jz nissan. honda, toyota also the same. my akod also they skipped sunroof. they jz giv u a free towel n kancil boot organiser

btw today went car tinting saw 2 teana. silver n gold i think. not bad looking.

Nissan Teana Spotted on the road

not to say that i am biased against any particular car manufacturer here. before we even go into compare which car is better let me ask you all a question.

- How on earth a Philippine CBU focus TDCI can be priced around the melaka 2.0civc or the new tom yam striped down 2.0 DVVTi Altis???

- How a Belgium imported Mondeo just has a price gap of 9k with those camry or accord?

- I dont even want to bother comparing the price of the new dugong

totally dissappointed with their blood-sucking move. ETCM, although is abit late to bring in ur Teana but still it still stand fairly well with its own niche market just like the new sonata YF. Your market segment is those anti T n H followers who wan to own a D-segment car.

for me, if i got the dough i either consider the mondeo, teana and sonata.

p/s: i am expecting my 1st ever ford experience with the TDCI focus by CNY next year

price is out.
2.0 standard rm138k
2.0 luxury rm142k
2.5 premium rm168k

bro ulet, got specs to share? any promotion?

where is that guy who slap his forehead so hard say no 2.0 high spec.

wow 138k. very competitive. kalah accord n camry

Very competitive? I dont think so. The Camry 2.0E is priced RM 145K which is only 7K more expensive than the Teana. If u want to match the Camry/Accord you have to ensure your cars are priced at least 12-15K cheaper. Nissan is making the same mistake as Hyundai did with their Sonata. How many Sonata's have u seen on the road since its launch?

Plus everybody knows that Nissan will keep the same model for at least 8-10 years and keep modifying it like that they're doing with the Sentra. This thrashes its resale value.

Im sure we wont be seeing many Teana's on the road. Plus ppl already know that the new Camry is due out in early 2012.

cybermaster08 your points are duly noted. thanks

yea think this teana is priced quite ok. buyer of new luxury sedan shld definite giv it a try.
