Hondas seem more 'cutting-edge' to me, with their high-tech engines and awesome efficiency. Their interiors don't dissapoint me, especially our Pilot's and the Accord's are very nice IMO. Also, the suspensions feel 'sportier', and they have some road noise issues.
Toyotas seem more 'old-school' but very solid technology. Their 4-bangers can't match Honda, but their new 3.5L V6 is sweet, especially compared to the old sludgemonster 3.0L. Fit & finish match Hondas, IMO, but the materials feel a little bit more 'durable.' Suspension is set for comfort and isolation; road noise is minimal.
I'd take a Honda manual tranny over a Toyota's anyday, but for automatics it's a tough call; Honda doesn't have a great reputation for autos...
Both brands are meticulously engineered, and it just comes down to whatever you like best
