Jafotech7:
Please I'm contemplating about getting a direct tokunbo on a fair budget. So I have Acura MDX and Mazda Tribute in me, I need candid advise on both vehicles: common issues associated with them, availability of spare parts, maintenance cost, resell value after 2years use, and finally, the current prices for direct tokunbo for bother cars ?

I will be glad to read responses from all the gurus on this thread. Thanks in advance.

Jafotech7:
Still patiently waiting for a response from the gurus I'm the house. I'm also adding Lexus Rx300 to the list. I will appreciate an experience base response to my inquiry.

You didn't arrange your query very well though, no model year attached

Mazda tribute is identical to ford escape first generation of the escape is okay but something with the engine entering limp mode around 150k miles until timing is touched or so for the 1st generation, second generation (2006 upwards or so) I can say is okay, from all indications a neighbor used brandnew unit and it was really reliable. They are good on gas whether i4 or V6 cause they are the light weight of your choice.

Acura MDX 2002 to 2006 has a V6 engine option only this generation was plagued by transmission issue less pronounced in 2005 and 06 model but ensure you test the gear selection vigorously or scan b4 u buy the unit.
The 2007 upwards is also a V6 but not too good on fuel economy but has power and drives smoothly, you will enjoy it if you love speed and premium interior finish.

Lexus RX300 is a reliable horse. It is only available in V6 except for the Japanese variant Toyota Harrier with 4 cylinder engine. The engine and transmission are very solid if well maintained you will only have issues with shocks and steering if Ill maintained and driven without recourse and try and buy better steering oil.

Jafotech7:
Thank you for the insightful analysis. As for the Mazda Tribute and Acura MDX, I was looking at the 04/05. Though I have made up my mind to go for the RX 300, and your analysis have just buttress my decision. Abeg which steering oil will you suggest for the RX 300 ?

Prices of cars in Nigeria are not determined by Luxury and Quality,only DEMAND.

How can you explain the juju that made a 2004 basic Toyota Corolla to be expensive than a 2008 BMW 3 series?

Nigeria is a funny country. So the price of the car should not amaze you,its not in demand.
Once the ride is ok,you better buy it.

sketcherJ:
Guys in the current economy

Can you please list the best brands I can get for 2m - 2.350m?
Tokunbo

And naija used

For personal ride, fuel efficient, luxury, lil bit of speed and not too expensive to maintain.


Is Corolla sport in the option? Or is the car a menace? Lol I don’t really know much about cars and wouldn’t want to make a mistake with my first buy

nurey:


Tokunbo should be Acura EL though nah leather seat majorly only but finding it.is another challenge

Tokunbo honda CRV CUV EX 2002 yo 2006 should have leather and probably DVD with reverse camera the ground clearance should help with bad roads.

Naija used find a good lexus ES300 or 330 full option or a lexus RX300 though they possess a V6 engine but luxury is top notch for their generation. How about I have 2.4 or 2.5

sketcherJ:
boss can you please list the average or popular prices of the two cards you mentioned in Nigeria. Toks

lagusboyyy:
Can you please rephrase your Question.

Do you mean the average price of Toyota Corolla and BMW 3 series in Nigeria?

Don't really get you.

sketcherJ:
yes please thanks
