FX 35 Or 08 Corolla? (car Gurus, Please Advice) by tropaz(m): 4:06am On May 06, 2020
Hi niraland car gurus, I currently drive a Camry pencil light and I must confess, the drive is great and its economical at least. But I really want to upgrade and my preference is an SUV considering the nature of my job and the condition of roads in this country.
The MDX was my first option but I need something rugged and durable. Hence, my preference for the FX35. A friend of mine drives it and I can say its a rugged and strong car.
Or should I just give up on SUVs and stick to the corolla everybody is buying to be on the safer side in terms of reliability and economy? I'm very confused?
Help a friend please....

Daddy no vex o, Infinix may be rugged o.. In my little knowledge after managing a Garage i noticed that wahala cars are mostly Nissan and you know that Infiniti is Nissan... I will only beg you to go for Corolla Sir or last last why not buy Nigeria used 2010 Corolla its rugged economical and smart.

When that inifinix starts swallowing ur fuel u will come back to your senses.

Then again in terms of second hand option, you can resell corolla if maintained properly at a price almost wt u purchased it, can u imagine that magic.

I wonder how toyota engines are so economical even though Honda is more economical.

Think am !

Highlander, CRV, Rav 4 with V4 are preferable models especially for a former Camry owner,it's relatable..

Don't move from Camry to FX if fuel is a concern to you,choose your corolla jeje

heard the headlamp of the FX cost well over 200k. Don't know how true. It's a rugged car but parts are very pricey and scarce..

The Corolla on the other hand may have good fuel economy, but very prone to theft. The AC for that model are very susceptible to failure, and suspension isn't that durable. Road handling ain't great if you are a frequent Traveller.

Just choose your preferred headache and take paracetamol or extra Panadol.
