Good morning sir
Thanks for the reply
So sir no reoccurring problem or fault to lookout, no advice or maintenance tips
Like from researchs the 010 had suspension problem
But it's seems the 013-015 is free of reoccurring faults?

nurey:
It is a good and reliable vehicle

I appreciate for the reply sir
Don't be offended by the question sir
I'm just a young car lover
What can you say about the Lexus Rx 350 (013-015)
Any problems, maintenance tips and advice

nurey:
I dont expect someone who can afford such car to have problem with maintenance. If money isnt an issue the BMW is a better car to drive than a dodge charger, the BMW does everything better.

But when you have bought it, i would advice you have a medium scan tool to atleast scan for error codes on your own to pickup minor issues b4 it blows to high proportion,

you must also have a modern garage to for regular and timely maintenance and fix

you should also have funds available to avoid expensive fixes when you begin experience minor issues.

Above all, these cars are not what one should be pulling everyday, they are meant for occasional joy rides like weekends, special occasions, so it would last if you have an everyday car other than one of these choices.

Good Morning Sir
BMW has been my dream car especially the M3 or M4 but I don't know much about it's durability, maintenance and also if it can breakdown bad when it goes into a water puddle just like some Benz

And maybe a comparison between the M3(2018) and Dodge charger (2015-2018) would be appreciated

nurey:
ES350 is far cheaper and easier to work on than a GS350. Both are reliable but for cost savings ES350 is better

nurey:

nurey:
It's a very fancy Camry same engine and transmission in camry V6

So if you are to pick between Camry and ES 350 of same year from 07-010, which will be the best?

It is very okay. The V6 in the 07 to 2011 is very okay same 2grfe if you are not interested in fuel economy the V6 will do you good

Dozieson:
Nurey has explained all you need to know

Yea thanks so much for your time too

nurey:
XLE, LE and SE are just trims meaning accessories is what differentiate the vehicles, they have same engine, transmission and body identical to 95%.

XLE has leather, better audio system, reverse cam with dvd screen etc it is always more expensive because it Carries premium features.

LE is luxury edition, it may have leather things that are standard in XLE trim will be optional on it meaning the person buying new can add something's he likes.

SE is sport edition has added body kits and side skirts to make it look sporty with tuned suspension for sporty ride but not good for bad roads in naija.

Focus on XLE or LE of the vehicle. The 07 to 09 engine is known for oil burn on the 4cylinder engine reason we always advocate for the 2010 or 2011 4cylinder

Okay thanks alot but please what about the 2010 XLE V6 I will like to know If it's a good option and also the common problems (do or don't)

@everyone

Dozieson:
Camry 2007-2009 is different from Camry 2010-2011 in terms of engine, transmission and electrical systems

XLE is always more luxury than SE and LE

Okay bro
Tell me about the 2010 series(XLE, LE and SE) first please tho I will also want to know about the 2009 series too if it won’t be much stress for you🤲

Dozieson:
Bros avoid 2008/2009 with 2AZ engine. it burns oil a lot. Go for the V6 Highlander or Rav 4.
Your corolla is a solid car if not for the ground clearance that you need

Bro please what’s the meaning of this higher ground clearance

nurey:
The camry and corolla are both very solid vehicles.

Efficiency both will get the job done but the camry has a bigger cabin, more leg room and comfortable sitting also more boot space.

Luxury the camry beats the corolla as the LE and xle come with leather optional sat navigation and JBL premium audio the corolla was never fitted with leather but the 06-07 has an upscale audio system.
The camry also comes with 16inch alloy rim options the corolla is 15 inch steel rim from factory on all models

Economy the corolla has a 1.6 and 1.8L engine while the camry has a 2.5L I4, V6 and hybrid. The camry hybrid comes close to the fuel economy of the corolla but to be on a safer side for 1st timer better to over look the hybrid. The corolla wins in economy but the camry 4 cylinder isn't bad if you want to balance power with economy. As full load the corolla is slow in acceleration.

Maintenance both are OK but camry parts are expensive than corolla. The corolla also has simple engine and parts even the sport version. I have 2 corolla in the family 04 and 07 the 07 has auto lock on moving the gear lever to Dallas, factory installed keyless entry, fog light.

Security both are robber magnet though the 06-07 corolla and most camry come with standard factory alarm systems, they can't be stolen whole when parked on like earlier models, but snatching at gun point has been major user experienced.

Verdict I would push to buy 06-07 corolla staying away from the sport due to bad roads and those with open roof as our weather conditions causes damage to the seals allowing leaks into the cabin.

If you like the camry, leave the SE and XLE with side skirts cause of our roads, push for a LE with all the bells and whistle (luxury edition with factory leather seats) but note most of the people using camry with non chalant attitude end up changing transmission.

Please can you tell me which is best between Camry XLE, LE and SE ranging from 2007 to 2010
