everyone's got a theory but by and large buying a new car is regarded even by dealers as a sucker bet. A two year old car has lost most of it's overage and still has warranty. I am surpised to see you tout buying a new car rather than a slightly used.

Beem I like accords better but probably only because I have only owned Hondas. I tend to prefer a car with a little more in the styling dept. Makes me feel like my car isn't cheap. I had a basic Accord(DX), sounds just like the Camry, and I always felt like it was cheap even though it wasn't. It was a good car. I have since bought higher end models(EX) and I always feel like I got more for my money. Only really an emotional thing but not completely worthless.

I will echo can's comments on carmax. They tend to be overpriced.
