2006 Camry is Fantabulous!
I compared the Accord to the Camry and decided on the Camry because of the quieter ride and larger interior space. I'm 6'2" and the Accord was a little cramped with less interior space. Both are nice vehicles with proven reliability, but I did like the looks of the Camry a little better too. The Camry also comes standard with steering wheel audio controls.
Jerky/Slow responding Camry
The Camry gives impressive fuel economy for a V6. Reston, va to Erie, pa on a tank of gas. Very silent compared to my 2.4L Camry. The fit and finish are excellent and is the interior comfort. Excellent JBL stereo option. The only problems i noticed was, The transmission shifts back and forth at low speeds. It gets very annoying especially in rush hour traffic. I am assuming that to save on cost, the same tranny as the one used in 2.4L or 3.3L was mated to the 3.0L. Also, the Drive by wire system response is tragically slow, especially during accelaration for passing other cars, to the point that it can become a safety hazard, as the driver is unable to judge the passing time.

If it is used, it is used up.
The 2.4L Camry is a mid-sized car which feels like a mid-sized car inside, parks like a mid-size car outside, and sips gas like a compact... and drives with the slushy feel, vague steering, handling, and turning circle of a much larger car. The driver's seat is extremely uncomfortable. Some of the interior luxury features like heated seats are nice. The mpg computer over-states the gas mileage by a bit, but it still does very well for such a large car. Reliability is where it all falls down. All 2006s are out of warranty now and repairs are very expensive. If you want a used 2006 be sure to get the V-6 which reportedly doesn't have the problems the 2.4L does.
Too many little things.
Ok, this is going to sound nitpicky, but bear with me. You've got to know about this before you buy. First off: The car looks great, drives great, handles great, build is great. BUT There are so many annoyances that I feel like I'm losing my mind. 1). Cannot get comfortable: always reaching for the wheel. 2). Blinkers are always on - because they don't click loud enough to remind me to shut them. 3). Speedometer is stupid. It is marked 20,40,60,80 etc. To see 55 or 45mph you've got to mentally interpolate. 4). A BIGGY: Gas mileage not what they tell you. It is billed as 24/34 - I've never gotten over 23mpg. This is basically bait an switch! Sounds petty, but small things really add up!
Great Car
Nothing. Great Car hope to get a 2018 soon!!!
