2004 Toyota Corolla Sport Or 2005 Mercedez Benz C230 Komporessor ??? by kingjonez: 11:31am On Jan 11, 2018 |
Hello Everybody, Please i am trying to make a decision between the 2004 Toyota corolla sport and 2005 Mercedez Benz c230 kompressor. I'd appreciate expert opinions on the two cars (their pros and cons). Previous and current owners of either are welcome to drop their opinions too. Thanks 2 Likes 1 Share |

I use a 2005 Corolla Sport, it's an excellent car, great fuel economy,parts are cheap,accelerates like a V6. There's little difference between the 2005 Corolla Sport and the 2004. If it's your first car I'd advice you go for the Corolla. 1 Like |

Papoose269:No Toyota Corolla born of metal, can accelerate like a V6. Corolla parts are not cheap aswell. @ OP, if you want a basic, bland, boring, no frills car, by all means get the corolla. For something more fun, classy & engaging to drive, get the C230 2005 (it sports a 1.8L supercharged i4 engine) Have a pristine one with 117k actual miles for sale by the way- https://www.nairaland.com/4266676/mercedes-benz-c230-kompressor-sport 7 Likes |

king406:if you have ever driven a 2005 Corolla Sport you'd know that it's a pretty fast car. At least in a convoy the V6 car in front of me doesn't go to far before I catch up. Anyway I'm glad I could make you laugh. |

Papoose269:Pikin wey never go another man farm go think say na him papa own big pass . I dont blame you. Someday you'd drive a powerful v6 and you'd regret making that statement. Let me tell you something. About 2 years ago, i drove an infiniti m35x v6 . and i later switched to drive a corolla the same day. The corolla felt like a bicycle. It kept making noise and reving with little movement. It felt very very slow. Yoruba go say . Ma Fi Iku Wey Orun. ( No compare sleep with death) 8 Likes 1 Share |

Papoose269:I have driven it and all you've written here is false. Have u ever driven a v6? If so then which car? If no then you have nothing to say. Your corolla that tries so hard to get to 120kmh and doesn't maintain that speed comfortably, very unstable car at anything more than 100kmh. Top speed of your car is only 180kmh and I doubt it even gets up to that speed. Even if it does it will take minutes to get to that speed on a straight road. 180kmh is just a cruising speed for some v6 cars. You are a funny man 7 Likes 1 Share |

Readonee35L: I was reasoning like him when i had my first corolla. I felt it was an accelerating machine! Until I got my i4 camry 2007 then infiniti G35!! Omoh! Corolla na Igbin. That G35 power(306HP) is crazy. I onced raced a G63 on third mainland omo the guy was suprised i was still on his trail! Forget corolla its a city car if you're going from point A to point B with no style, class and passion. It does not have a soul. 15 Likes |

Papoose269: Maybe a V6 1.8l engine, if there's anything like that. If in Ìbàdàn I can arrange you to test drive a V6 and you compare the performance. While on the drive, your Corolla is gonna be in my possession just incase.... |

timifakay: No play go there. That M271 + M45 Eaton Twin scroll supercharger Will annihilate your corolla and Camry 2.4l . I'm talking from experience of owning one in my possession for 2 weeks plus. You May see it seemingly sluggish but it will mess you up thoroughly. I've had an elantra 2014 model try in futility to catch up with me one day on my normal cruise. 1 Like |

Papoose269: Parts are not cheap if you are actually buying OEM. It doesn't accelerate like a V6. It's a boring ride that can comfortably do a point A to B trip. If you ever get to drive the 2005 C230 kompressor, you will dislike you Corolla sport. 2 Likes 2 Shares |
