Who is the better automaker, Toyota or Honda? Why?
I will not try to say who is better, since some aspects of this are very subjective. I will simply say that Toyota has a complete lineup of vehicles, and that they have strengths in some areas, and weakness in other areas. Honda has a much smaller fleet, that covers some segments very well, and doesn't even touch others. They have some strengths (particularily in fuel economy), and weaknesses (no product) in other areas.
So, a comparison really needs to be more focused, say based upon a specific class of vehicles. It also comes down to asking yourself, what am I looking for in a new car. I will have to consider what I want in a vehicle ( type of vehicle, size, fuel economy, performance, V8 engine, PRICE......!
Then I will compare the specific vehicles in each lineup that seem to meet those criteria, and decide what works for ME! Buying a vehicle is a very personal thing, so don't let a magazine or popular opinion make YOUR decision for you. Only YOU know what you like. Only YOU know what your priorities are. Only YOU know how much you can afford for that new steed.
Peace

As hagiber said, you've already answered your own question, as most of us are wont to answer in the same manner you just did.

Same goes here; don't let an online car forum make your decision for you.

Which is why asking everyone else's opinions here will ultimately be moot. Every car make has its advantages as well as risks. But the bottom line is, no matter how many posts we make defending either brand, it's still your money and your personal satisfaction that will have the final say in the matter.

IMHO
Both are reliable, both are value for money.
Honda if you want sporty handling.
Toyota if you want comfort.
Kumbaga walang itulak kabigin, depends on what your driving preference is.

Hi
esp, said most of it. But he seems to suggest that the original poster was applying this to purchasing a car. This may not be the case. Both are about the same, one is up in some areas, the other is better in yet different areas. The car is complex enough that lots of compromises are done, both makers are optimising in different areas in different ways. I am sure most would agree.
However, if you want to compare HYBRID car development. No question one is way ahead of the other. So much so that Porsche is doing joint development on the "rumoured" Cayenne Hybrid!. (German's bowing to Japanese, for a change!. How the world has changed!)
