A mid-size comparison (Accord Euro, Liberty, Mazda6, new Camry) still has good things to say about the Accord Euro:

The Camry's rear end is sooooo IS250 LOL....

Seems like they are taking alot of design cues from their Lexus department in their cars now..

Consumer report in the US has just ranked the V6 accord higher then the brand new V6 camry (which is randomly only available in the US).

Which is pretty damn impressive as the current accord is at the end of it's lifecyle and the camry is brand spanking new and almost 4 years later in development.

theyve always done that
the current camry sorta looks like the IS250
the current landcruiser looks a lot like the LX470
the front of the previous model camry looks like the ES300
the current model corolla sedan sorta looks like the IS200
the new RAV4 looks like the RX350

list goes on
its not surprising either as lexus is the luxury division of toyota

Under the skin you'll find that many Lexii are pretty much just souped up Toyotas (funny, that).

The most obvious is the LX470, which is pretty much a LandBarge...sorry, LandCruiser with more bells and more whistles. If you parked an ES300 next to the previous model Camry, I think you'll find that the lines are almost identical.

Lexus is to Toyota what Acura is to Honda. Sort of.
