Shagati: Tell me you're kidding? shocked
of course I'm not kidding. The question was what's the difference between a 2.0 v6 and a 3.0 v6. They both have the same no of cylinders (6). Yes there are some 2.0L v6 engines and have been used in Honda legend, mazda mx3 and alfa GTV

SupermodelVicky: RIP. Serious misfortune
But what were they doing out by dat tym of d nyt?
typical ignorance mentality. Anybody can stay out late at night even of u are not a night owl. What of they were coming from a long journey and their car broke down, then it got late before it was fixed. What if it was an emergency and someone had to be taken to a hospital. Or u have a family member coming from a long journey but arrived late and u had to go pick him. See. There are lots of reasons that can make someone stay late at night even when u don't expect to.

camry-2008:
very simple, just flush the Injector and nuzzles, clean the air filter, come back and give ur testimony
U seem very sure that will solve the problem, but what if it doesn't? What about the idle air control valve (iacv), throttle body position sensor (TPS),MAF sensor, or maybe misfire. The first step toward troubleshooting is to see if there is a check engine light on, then scan the car.
Car TalkRe: My Honda Accord 2002 by abatically(m): 1:13pm On Dec 19, 2013
Do u have a check engine light on

Fhemmmy: Acura RDX . . . Not sure if common on Nija roads
Yes it is first generation Acura RDX (2010 precisely). Most cars available in the US are also available in Nigeria especially if its Japanese. The Acura RDX is the Japanese answer to BMW X3. 2.3L turbocharged engine producing 240HP.

Car TalkRe: Why Do Nigerians Prefer To Buy Used Car Rather Than Buying A New Car? by abatically(m): 6:24pm On Dec 18, 2013
Omila007: Mii Lady
Firstly used products are used everywhere in the world make no mistakes about it. It has nothing to do with the mentality, be it cars gadget or anything.
Secondly most news things are financed in the developed world from gadgets, cars, homes and etc.
If you will agree with me that financing is yet to be rooted in our system as a nation then you will understand why used things sell more.
If you doubt this please go online to e-commerce websites like ebay, amazon, kijiji etc., you will see the amount of used products sold there everyday both locally and internationally.
Cars like 1998 Toyota camry still remains a very high demand car even in the u.s, they only spice it up with the type of expense chrome rims they put on it, which most times comes more expensive then the car itself.
Same thing I said in my first post. People hardly buy cars outright in developed countries, they are financed. Nigeria don't even have a biometric data of her citizens, how financing wan take work when someone can use fake info to get a loan. I would say Nigerians buy more new cars than people in developed countries because we pay FULL IN CASH. Same thing goes for houses. Next thing people will say Nigerians like buying used houses. Do u think it is easy in this country where u have to pay millions to buy a land and then build a house from scratch. In advanced countries, unless u are super rich that is when u can build ur own house the way u want. People buy used cars everywhere, countries that have better economy and standard of living than Nigeria. In advanced counties u can make a small deposit and take a new car.. u just have to pay a certain amount every month for a certain period of years. If that is possible in Nigeria a lot of people would do it.

faakay: The car is okay. http://www.peugeot301.org/
I just checked it out.



are you telling me I can't get a brand new toyota camry for 3.5 million naira? I can't believe that.

Car companies have got various series of brand so I should be a able to get a car either camry, corolla, peaguoet, benz, bmw etc for that amount even at lesser price
U can't get a Camry for that price, even newer corollas start at 4m. With ur budget u can still get a Toyota yaris, Peugeot 301 etc which are in the same class as kia Rio . yes car manufacturers have different models of cars. The way a corolla drives is different from the way a Camry does. They might carry the same name, but different personality. Same goes with other brands.

Also, 3.5 million WILL NOT get a brand new BMW or Benz of any class (I stand to be corrected) unless u are talking about motorcycle. A brand new 2013 model BMW 128i still cost about $29,000 which is about 4.5 million. When u add shipping and duties u will end up paging about 7 million or so.

faakay: OK well said.

Everybody with individual taste

as for me if have got 2.5 - 3.5 million.

I would rather settle for a brand new toyota camry or peagueot instead of buying one mussle or jeep
3.5 million will not get u a brand new Toyota camry. U might get a new entry level corolla with that though
