looks is subjective, but IMO looks way better than the crap Honda is crapping out these days.

Obviously Honda is doing something right considering how many they sell every year.

Pretty sure Toyota > Honda in terms of US sales.

'Overstyling' is here.

That ain't an endorsement.

I've never bought a car because of brand loyalty. I confess that the sum of the exterior parts - the sheet metal (or plastic), the lights, and the road presence when I happen to spot one early after release - is what opens my wallet.

Some of the overstyled nonsense hitting the pavement now makes me even happier that I bought the BRZ.

Not intend to compare current Toyota vs current Honda, but rather the current Honda with imo ugly designs vs past Honda with designs that a lot of people are nostalgic about and deemed better. Yet they are probably making way more money now than ever before.

i think Honda's best designs were the 90s and early 2000s. sadly most of their cars today look like @ss.

2018 Toyota Camry Opens A New Chapter For The Family Sedan

Quote:
Sports cars may be what bring customers into showrooms, but that's not what they leave with. That honor goes to less exciting cars – like the Toyota Camry, which has just gotten a little more exciting.

Revealed at the 2017 Detroit Auto Show is the all-new version of Toyota's mid-size sedan. The popular (if lackluster) model took a stylistic step forward when the current model launched in 2011, and another stride when the facelift arrived in 2014, but takes a much bigger leap with the introduction of this latest iteration.

I like the rear and interior. Everything else reminds me of a Nissan.

Not bad at all... But once everyone has 2, the looks will wear off

Hmm, what's going on with the C-pillar? I like the character line, but notice you can get it unpainted or painted black to match the roof.
