postmann: True. Toyota has good resale value and good sales numbers thanks to their cheaper price. VW is cheap too and enjoys high sales too.
But Toyota's bread and butter of sales couldn't break into Europe, the continent of cars and had to be discontinued there in the mid '90's 
Toyota's, philosophy is to produce cheaper cars for the world's poorer economies, same philosophy first imbibed by VW with their famous beatles.
KIA and others have adopted the same philosophy and like Toyota they are known for playing safe, never venturing into groundbreaking innovation. Wrong. Toyota are all about global market. Not regional market. US and Aussie are great market for them. About Kia and Hyundai those companies are like very very wild fire. Far back 09 they introduced 6sp auto with luxury features into their cars when mid class vehicles never thought so. Look at the Kia stinger look at the k900 and a host of others. |

calculusx: Oyaa all of una yearning for clean title cars, one is here. Let's see if 1 person can buying it. I will subsidise the price with additional 300k. Clean Title Accident Free, na beans? 
OP, will advise you sell your Car locally in Yankee. Too many time wasters here. They wanted Clean Title 2011 Camry for N3m when cost of clearing is N1m All three SUVs I've own are clean titled with fully paid duty. This is so you know. If I'm in the market looking for cars for my personal use I go the extra mile to ensure I get the best. I know a lot of people who share this pursuit of excellence with me. There are thousands of people I don't know who also share similar passion. Its not cos we are rich no! Heck we just the regular people in the society. I'm really disappointed you could utter this. I'm utterly disappointed your statement fall our hands. |

Shroud: [s] let me go over the parts you highlighted
1) acceleration: measurement time for a car to pull out from a stop. It's an industrial term.
2) quickness: industrial term for 0-60 time
3) fastness : top speed. Industrial term too for the highest speed a car can achieve. All Asian cars are lacking in this aspect too.
4) top speed: same as fastness so I'm guilty of repetition here.
5) breaking distance: this is the measurement of time a car is brought to a stop when the break is firmly applied at a particular speed. Again European cars are heavier on an average than Japanese cars but have better braking distance time.
6) stability: a car's ability to maintain balance at top speed in different road terrain and road conditions. Give Mercedes a thumbs up for this ability especially.
7) cornering or manoeuvrability: ability to take bends or road curves at high speeds. Apart from the Ferraris and lambos, I give BMW this ability, Mercedes and Audi are just right behind BMW
8. Road feel is an industrial term for the feel between the wheel and tyres wnen on high speed. Its the feeling or lack thereof of surety of being in control of the vehicle. The connection between the steering wheel and the tyres of the vehicle when on high speeds. These feeling is near-numb on most Japanese cars when you're in the territory of 160kmh[/s]. You truly lack idea of what you're all about. Stop speaking emotionally. |

Shroud: Toyota is only expensive in Nigeria where things always defy logic. check in European and American and Japanese car sales listings Toyota is very expensive. Secondly Lexus at its inception made raves and was soon placed in its true possition by the German brands after a decade or two.
Lexus still lacks behind the German brands in acceleration, quickness, fastness, top speed, breaking distance, road feel, stability, cornering and technology wrong they're all having different philosophy and approach and definition towards building luxury. To the Germans it's sports, to Lexus it's uber quiet comfy supple ride. As a matter of fact today , Lexus is just a Toyota with a different badge given more leather, Formica and noise cancelling features. a Toyota build quality and materials doesn't match close to a Lexus. You need to be enlightened more so stop speaking fallacies and study without bias |
