Well like I said, its all about choice........I prefer to buy something fast and make it faster....my choice papa.

As to reliability.....Toyotas are just as reliable or even more reliable than Hondas.....Before you even say anything......just look at the news in the Middle East. Have you noticed what cars those boys rockin.....camerys and corollas etc.

As for awards....Toyota and Nissan have also won there fair share.

Kobi.......For future reference, I was talking on a performance level.

edmunds.com is a much better comparison.

There is a reason why the toyota Camry is the best selling automobile period. and TOYOTA is ontop.

Also remember that the time the article is published in relation to the car release date plays an important role.

Just take a look at the same site.

http://www.edmunds.com/reviews/consumer ... index.html

http://www.edmunds.com/reviews/mostwant ... index.html

One has the Tundra for fullsized, another has the F-150
but thats editors vs consumers

The real benchmark has always been the JD power and Associates

Nissan has won JD Power awards for their engines. the 350 has won automobile of the year also and has a total of 41 awards.
"Winning a Ward's 10 Best Engines award for the sixth consecutive year proves the depth of Nissan's engine development expertise," Visnic said. "We believe the VQ 3L V-6 is approaching the sort of 'legendary' status afforded to a select group of timeless engine designs."
