These guys just keep pushing the perfomance envelope that little bit further, every single time!!!... Just when you wondered how the engineers at Ferrari HQ (located at Maranello, Province of Modena, Italy) could possibly do better than the recently unleashed hi-tech, hi-performance beast; the 2011 458 Italia... Well, they have.

A Tale of 2 Kings: The 2012 TOYOTA CAMRY versus The 2013 HONDA ACCORD - The Battle continues…

This is an age-old battle for sales supremacy in the midsize sedan segment that has been raging on for the past 30 years… HERE are the latest entries from the 2 giants who have been skirmishing for the top spot.
The 2012 Toyota Camry and the 2013 Honda Accord

Interestingly, both Japanese, both offering amazing build quality, great 2nd hand values, low repair/maintenance costs, and mid-level pricing.  These 2 car makers seem to have gotten the perfect mix to keep these models flying out the dealerships more quickly than anything else the competition has to offer.  Both the Camry and the Accord also, especially here in Nigeria have a loyal fanbase that have either owned an earlier model or have been loyal repeat-customers to either the Toyota or Honda sedan. 

Let’s see what the latest entrants have to offer
Really - it's the little details that matter. Subtle things that an ordinary person might overlook are everything to a car guy/girl who would live with his/her brand new pride-and-joy over the next 3-4years.  The truth is, that these cars are not really designed from a spare-no-expenses standpoint, such as the high-end luxury flagships that automakers produce to show how far they can go technologically. No. These cars are designed by committee. They are designed, manufactured to save costs on production processes, and marketed to appeal to as wide a category of people as possible,. Priority, here is to sell as many units as possible, and increase profit margins.

In the largest automobile market in the world, the U.S. market, last year alone (in 2011) the Camry sold 308,510 units while the Accord moved 235,625 units. Very impressive numbers - by any standard.
