What love-vendor rubbish is this? U don't know what a pimped car is? Just a white painted line and black rims with some rubbish at the booth is called love-vendor? ...or is it the 25 K tv screen? smh...this is no difference with the normal one that cost 950 k

@ OP: If you must have this particular toyota brand,have it @ all cost

This is a Tested and Trusted Toyota Brand that has never failed the owners. Parts are relatively cheap and available @ Ladipo. Reason for its high price is actually because of demand and supply. I was on auction Today and I can confidently tell you a Manual Tranny 05 Corolla was sold for $1200. Guess how much an Automatic Tranny will be sold for? These are salvage with minimal dent. Let's do some rough calculations together

Cost of Purchase $1200
Auction Fee 350
Trucking to Port 300 depending on proximity
Shipping 900 depending
....................................
$2750
Forex Rate x 400
.....................................
Total #1,100,000
Clearing in Lagos 450,000
..........................................
Total Landing Cost #1,550,000

Remember this is based on Today's Auction and for a Manual Transmission 05 Corolla, let alone Automatic Transmission
So, don't blame we dealers most times. If only you know what we go through before we get $ @ reasonable rate. If you see any 03 - 06 Corolla online for #1.8m, pls grab the offer without looking back. A clean Title 03 - 06 Corolla will sell for nothing less than #2.1m. How many Nigerians can afford to pay that huge amount of money for 03 - 06 Corolla.
Remember also that the above estimate exclude fixing of the Car which could cost between 30k - 50k. Let's be enlightened and stop blaming dealers of smiling to the bank.

Hit like if at a point you thought the op meant 3.98%, 4.98%, 5.98%, and the likes.

Op, take note.

And where is the Land of the Rising Sun...

USAutoBuy:
This Corolla is in a class of its own. The reason is that buyers of this car spans several age category. Single Young chaps on the come up love it. Young family (1- 3kids). Single female, married female, older people etc.

It "fits" into just any category of family structure you can think of hence the higher demand. And the resale value is fantastic. People that paid about N1.3m about 2 yrs ago are now asking N1.1m-1.2m to sell used! and they are getting at least N1m

Fuel consumption is EXCELLENT!. Better than Camry

Its what it is. the market dictates. Close eye and buy if u can afford it

vivalaurel:
The 03-07 corolla is not expensive in Nigeria alone,even in the US the resale value is very high.It is not the best car around but does everything well and therefore appeal to an average Nigerian. Its fuel economy is superb,it is elegant,the engine is pretty basic(no unnecessary gizmos to give wahala when they breakdown), parts are relatively cheap(toks o), it is fast(at least for an average joe) and hardly breaks down. I have friends who have been using theirs for over 5 years and are reluctant to upgrade. I av only used mine for 16months and its been a wonderful experience (I only visit filling stations twice a month unless I go on a very long journey) and changed d front hub(cos of noisy wheel bearing).Go for it if u can afford it Op.
