on paper its close but in real world settings the E 350 is not as fast as the Avalon period but european car fan boys will feel otherwise besides car manufacturers put out fact sheets to support a narrative that of Benz being their cars are sporty

let the race begin. elshan has already volunteered his cars.
need for speed season 1.

adanny01:


Higher curb weight is a setback bro.

Higher torque will be wasted by the higher curb weight.

Not true, the E350 despite been heavier clock 0-60mph in 6.8 seconds while the Avalon make 0-60mph in 7.1 seconds.

Even the 2005 Acura RL will disgrace that 2010 Avalon on a race track.

but the discussion wasn't about the RL and Avalon but the E 350 and Avalon

lol I don't own both but I have driven both countless times , as a matter of fact my friend sold off his 2007 Avalon for been too boring.

I mentioned the RL for him to understand that the Avalon is been exaggerated by ElshanAutos.

No need for that speed on Nigerian roads. Is it not maddness to be moving that fast on pothole filled roads. This is just plain suicide. We should rather be advising op on things, available of parts and mechanics etc.

There are a few good stretches of road in Lagos, without potholes, and smooth as a baby’s butt.

I guess he's buying to drive all the time and not on few stretch of road. Would like to know those areas as smooth as baby's butt as I have some cars with enough toys for speed. Only seen that stretch of good roads in the north.

Where do you have empty stretch of road(s) to race in Lagos? please don't tell me you have such roads around Airport road where you live.

if you term the avalon boring then surely the e class will be described the same way

lol the E350 is more compact, the Avalon is unnecessarily large and too rooming inside.

E 350 2009: L: 191 inches
W: 72 inches

Avalon 2010: L: 197 Inches
W: 72 inches

don't really see how the avalon is too big compared to the e class and their dimensions puts them in the midsize category

Avalon was formally a full size saloon car only became a midsize saloon car in 2012.

no sir avalon has always been midsized it is considered large only in the Japanese domestic market fyi the Avalon has grown bigger in size over the years so how can it suddenly change designation?

@ aaidel I wonder why you bother replying someone that has consistently shown he doesn’t know much of what he’s talking about, yet acts like he does..

The Avalon was actually marketed in Japan as Toyota Pronard and in Australia as Mark I/II/III though was replaced with Aurion. it may also interest to know that the Avalon has always been assembled in US and exported to Japan.
In North American market the Camry competes in the midsize sedan segment with Avalon representing Toyota in the full size sedan segment until the fourth generation which run from 2012 - 2017.

Well i was talking about the 2010'ish generation TL and RL, since the thread is about 2010 benz/Avalon

2010 TL SH-AWD had extra 5hp over big bro 2010 RL

Not true boss, the 2010 TL delivers 280hp at 254 torque while the RL delivers 300hp at 271 torque.

You had only once chance to educate me and you failed woefully. I can’t take you serious I’m sorry. Almost everything you have said has been countered successfully. Maybe you should go thru your own posts and see for yourself.

Pls, kindly google atleast, and make some research, before posting. This is Nairaland cartalk section, not your local beer parlor. Cheers!

He doesn’t realize the TL has two variants. Thanks for educating him.
