What Car Should I Buy As First Car ? by 3sixtylaughs: 2:21pm On Mar 12, 2023
I am currently in the market for a car which is going to be my first I’d really appreciate it my fellow Naira landers help out with this:
As a young man in his 20s and single; I want something flashy and sporty but can also take a beating because I really do not plan to go easy on her. I don’t want something too expensive so I don’t end up over pampering the car if you know what I mean anywhere between 3- 6M TOks is fair. i also want to keep a low maintenance cost.

Why can't you use the money for investment?.. looking at your age, you don't need that car now...

2006-2010 Lexus IS250 or IS350 ( very very sporty, doesn’t get spoilt easily )
2008 Mercedes C300 ( not so sporty, but shows class. can be expensive to maintain if you mess it up and skip frequent servicing )
2010 - 2014 or 2015 Toyota Camry
2014 Hyundai

If lucky enough, can find a 2010 Mercedes E350 for that range maybe idk

Wow this is so comprehensive. The Lexus Is 250 was my first choice but I’m scared it’ll be too small for me in terms of legroom when driving I’m a good 6foot 4 inches tall.

As long as you don’t have a family to use the backseat often, you are good to go with the 250/350 really. Front seat is decent, the back is the problem ( you or your tall friends won’t fit in the back for sure )

Honda 2014 v6 touring trim, also look for heavenlybang and nurey car comparison thread, those guys are good at car recommendations, good luck
Re: What Car Should I Buy As First Car ? by Billiebaba(m): 6:28pm On Mar 20, 2023
There are various options from working on these vehicles.
Camry 2012-2014 very rugged, not so sporty easy to maintain and can take serious beating
Mercedes E class very vey rugged, very sporty and well balanced not so easy to maintain, you’ll need an experienced tech to handle maintenance.
If you’re the daredevil type you can go for BMW 3 E90 or 5 series E60 very sporty and rugged too, but not easy to maintain at all, but the maintenance can be handled well.
