i advice you to go for a camry, because of durability, especialy in its legs (shocks) the only nreason you should go for a baby boy should be if you r trying to cut cost.

Baby boy is faster and more responsive than camry.
Baby boy has no problems with the shocks and suspension like camry
Fuel consumption is almost the same.
Buy baby boy and keep N120k for imminent gear box problem.
buy BB and sell back at 500k begging people to buy.

NICE ONE!!!! But OP could be lucky to get a manual gear baby boy. I've seen some, none for sale though. Then, I've heard that Honda genrally has the issue of tires coming off, i.e. Seperating from the axle/ bearing. Front tires especially. Dyu have anything on this?

Truly i have seen a number of honda, Golf and Benz with tie rods pulled off. It must have given signs. A good driver should know if the tie rods, upper arm or ball joint even wheel bearing are bad. they are supposed to be replaced as soon as u notice unusual sound while driving. Negligence on our part causes the tyres to give way, sure the owner must be aware of unpleasant noise or sound before.

Very true. A car will always give signs before that kind of problem occurs.

If you want quick responsive, well balanced and smart car that you won't need to buy new shocks or adjust it all the time as in camry. Go for baby boy however service your gearbox as at when due otherwise save money for another in 2-3 years. but if you need a sluggish car, one that the brakes are not reliable, that is not balanced at high speed and curves. Then go for Camry. 1 of every 20 camry owners have had accident with it.

No Car that does not experience gear problem if neglected or wrongly maintained. Some people does not know they need to service gear box/ change the oil when it gets to some certain mileage. 97 accord is a Good car no doubt. Smart thus the nickname,rugged, balanced at high speed and fuel efficient. Have used it. What I will advise you when you get it is try and maintain your engine regularly depending on your usage. In the case of gear, service depending on your millage, maybe every 10,000 or 15,000 or 20,000. Don't allow all those mechanic to tell you that you only need to top the oil, when its short. Just change totally with a very good ATF.I Changed gear once why using the car though then sold it off.

i've used all 3 cars mentioned here so far and i can tell you this,
the 97 accord is a solid car. rugged responsive, and if properly maintained will give no faults.
used the v6 version never had faults with the car.
used the 2000 camry (i4) and its a good car, reliable and trustworthy. all i can say about it is that
its highly dependable but very forgettable. will get you to your destination with no drama.
the baby boy.... looks good, drives great, but when it starts with you ehn..... changed my gear box twice in
5 years and this was with regular maintenance. always look at people who drive thiers and wonder who their babalawo
is and how i can get in touch with him.
my recommendation would be buy the camry but you can risk the baby boy if you like.
after all, there are still lots of nigerians using it so it cant be all bad right?

That is a function of inferior china cloned suspension parts that has massively flooded the Nigeria Honda market. Get a good honda parts dealer and you will never experience that, trust me.

@@@@^^^u dey mind then

use original spare
Re: I Need Advise On Baby Boi And Camry 2000 by baaliyah(m): 1:16pm On Jul 21, 2012
@ ikemanoo, Original or fake parts, some cars have inherent manufacture problems. If you want to advertise ur spare parts shop go ahead. I use a honda currently (not baby boy) I enjoy it more than my former and current Toyotas. The key words are proper maintenance and observance. Nobody says Honda is bad, we are saying what we observe from experience. If u have a point to support either of the brands make it.
