   Did you just say it's 6 lakhs cheaper than camry?please head to your nearest toyota showroom to refresh your knowledge.Also about the engine,octavia RS(1.8l 150hp) is ACTUALLY 7 lakhs cheaper and yet faster than accord V-6 besides having real sports features like neon lamps,16-in alloys,sun/moon roof black leather seats etc

   Yeah...i think you really need to head to the nearest TOYOTA showroom and check out the prices...OF CAMRY...still for your information...Accord is ONROAD close to 18,50,000. and Camry showroom prise is 23,00,000 and ONROAD price is 26,00,000. it has High texes which increases the ONROAD price.
   Rest as you said about RS. well...RS is 150Ps and it's Just 1.8L...and Accord V6 is 221Ps and 3L...there's a huge diffrence in power. And about RS being faster then Accord.you should know its Automatic.

   well I live in Chandigarh and here we get a camry for 23L and accord for 18.5,Dunno bout your town.And about the automatic,it is not my mistake that Honda does not know how to make A\T gearboxes.Laura comes with the DSG auto box that gives better fuel eff and performance than even manual(Bugatti veyron[1000hp]uses DSG rather than manual).You won't know that if you stay in Honda world.And yes,thank you for correcting me:RS has Xenon not neon(there are no neon lights).

   one more thing.Pure numbers are not enough to judge a car's performance.Ferrari modena has a 450hp(approx) engine and MITSUBISHI EVO has a 2l 400hp engine(yeah you read that right,it's TWO Litre and was introduced way back in 1999) yet modena did not even make it to the top 10 fastest street legal cars in the world while the EVO was ranked 6(in year 2000).As a friend I suggest you surf the net and get as much info as you can get about all the automotive technology in the world.

   Also give the VW Passat a look.I forgot to tell you the DSG technology belongs to VW .Skoda Bugatti and other european companies BORROW this exceptional tech from VW.Also Passat is a whole lot loaded to the brim with sensors and features you cannot imagine and is almost as fast as Accord V-6.I would say Camry and accord V-6 buyers should give the passat(available in diesel in India) a look.If the interiors of passat look a bit disappointing to you then CAMRY is the one you should go for.

   I think u both r absolutly right at your own respective parts but why dont you get it u cannot compare a E CLASS(accord) vehicle with a D Class(skoda R.S) more over R.S stands in the rally sport segment where as an accord is an executive class . No doubt and RS can rip the accord in the initial stage but if u test it in expressway i think R.S will lead way behind. so basically wrong comparison.Now coming upto camry. camry belongs to the same E segment but no value for money for a 2.4ltr.

   I agree with you too Samit.But in which category would you put the 2.0L 18lakh C-rv?It's not about the engine size,but the overall performance.You don't need to buy an accord to quench your speed thirst.Import a 24lakh EVO.It's virtually a supercar with decent luxury.Heck,even sitting in a camry changes the way you see luxury cars.If you think camry is overpriced I can't help you.I'm not saying don't buy accord,I'm just trying to bring down the HYPE around Honda cars(accord doesn't rule!!)

   good points being made by all of you. But as far as engine refinement and revving is concerned nothing can beat accord and yes RS is fractionally quicker than accord till 150-160 and after that accord takes off(no replacement for displacement.VW passat has a very disappointing low end torque and midrange performance is its only selling point in terms of acceleration. Camry on the other hand is CBU import and hence is expensive in comparison to accord however the engine is sadly detuned
