Throw whatever you want at me, it can't change anything about my experience. My first car was Honda City, I've driven end of discussion, discussion continues, even pilot which I bought from US and am still driving it. I had driven Toyota corolla which was bought from metropolitan autos, by Mobil at oba akran, tear rubber and i drove it for years too. I also drove a toyota Avensis, though tokunbo but it doesn't matter. Based on my personal experience, Honda is better.
One man's food is another man's poison.

Simple.

Nothing sinister I think the corrolla is overpriced in Nigeria
U can never see a Toyota car in a Formula 1 grandprix because the car is shitty and highly overpriced by Nigerians. But u would see Honda F1 car(a red bull honda car riden by max vaxtepean)competing and even beating a Mercedes car. Na here I know say Honda na machine and a corrolla doesn't come close. Abeg buy the Honda in peace and donmot waste time

Avoid naija used car for honda
OP, please listen to these words of wisdom. I can't stress this enough.

Thinking of my experience with a Nigerian used Civic gives me PTSD

Don't deceive the boy. In the next five years the corolla can go for 1.8M while the Honda will be going for 250k.

Even Aboki don't go for Honda again. Very fragile.

Thanks for the mention! !!

Go for the Honda Civic because it surpasses the corolla in many aspects.

Just that its resale value is not like that of the corolla.



This is the mistake most Nigerians make.

All Hondas don't have the leg pull issue, and Honda civic doesn't pull legs. But, say, Honda accords from 2003 to 2008 had the issue that often happens due to poor maintenance of Nigerians plus our bad roads.

They fixed the issue in higher models of Honda accords.

When you're buying a car consider the second hand value. You mean when they keep the two you will go for the civic? Double liability. When you're in trouble you can sell that Toyota in 24hrs at high rate but the Honda may be on ground for 1 year at low price.

I've seen people mostly compare these two cars (in particular) with each other.
This shows that Honda Civic is a match to the Toyota.

The bolded is absolutely untrue. If everyone considers second-hand value as priority as you've painted, who will be driving those you term not having second-hand value?

Nah poor people dey consider second-hand value as a priority when buying any vehicle. Rich people make their joy the priority.

2.2 engine size will not take more that 52 liters or less = N162*52 = #8424
The diff is much.
52 (2.2L engine/Camry) -40l (1.8L corolla) = 12Litre diff....
That's a lot in my opinion for the same journey

I never said it is a honda problem. I stand by my word, most hondas are abused by the users. I live in th north where honda is used more than any other region in the country.
You said Honda has fuel pump and suspension problem, and I say you are wrong.

Civic legs no dey pull.. even for accords it is more common with 203-207 models. Newer models don't pull unless you fail to maintain your car. Same will happen to any car if you don't maintain it

Corolla is a reliable and economic(fuel) car no doubt . It's parts are generally expensive due to very high demand. Parts by parts comparison with the camry corrolla parts are just too pricey.

Forget all the grammar and go for the Toyota, you will thank me later, all Honda cars are not good for commercial purposes. I rest my case

You people are just shouting second hand value. Which one has more 2nd hand value between the two. Use both car for two years and sell them off. Who makes the highest money between

Dearlord:
Go for the Honda at least if any fault you can repair it with less than 100-200k and you are good to go and shtart making profit more than the Corolla guy.
He can never spend 200k unless he want to change the engine. He doesn't need to change his gear. If engine is not faulty. Civic is his first and only choice here

In terms of automobile, nothing last forever. You can give Civic a trial , hence it gives signs and it's predictable

You're very funny. Honda very fragile compared to Toyota. Go and do your finding sir. Also, and if corolla jumped up to 1.8m, the Honda will depreciate in price. Sit down there. How much is accord 10-12 model 6 years ago. It has depreciated, right

I sold my civic 08 within 3 days with plead from the buyer. Bought it for 650 Nigerian used and after like 6/7 months sold it off. So, don't say what you don't know sir. Honda have more resale value. If the difference between accord 16/17 models and corolla of same year is 2 million, after 2-5 years usage, and sold, forget, you can neversell with 2 million difference.
