Good day, please I need advice on which one to go for, something stress free, smooth, easy to maintain and fuel friendly with a budget of 2.5m
1- 2008 civic
2- 2010 elantra
3- 2004 corolla verso
Other suggestions are welcome
Are you sure you can still get the toks of those cars at 2.5? I love that 08 civic

Hello Guys,

What are your thoughts on the 2013 - 2015 GS350 for a first car, given that it's quite rare shocked ? or The GX470 2008 considering the nature of our roads.

I also have the ES350 and C300 as options, but I'm prioritizing the two above.

Would appreciate your response.

I wouldn't buy a 2013 GS as my first car. You're better off with a 2012+ C Class or a GLK.

Exactly what I'm thinking. Prices of cars have gone high, for you to get a toks 08-09 Accord na 3M at least. Even Toyota Corolla (Uber type) has gone up to 3.3..

The 2012 GLK or C300 will be cheaper to maintain and more fuel efficient than the GX 470 &GS350

The GS is definitely a more reliable car compared to the mercs

A 2005 E320 or a 2008 GS 350

Which is more reliable?
Which is less problematic?
Which is more fuel efficient?
Which is maintenance friendly?

I've been reading about how LEXUS burns oil, has gear transmission problems, overheating issues.


So which is a better choice?

Shoppy my G.

hello guys I was considering getting a 2014 Honda accord v6 or 2010 lexus es but with what road in my area is turning into, I'm beginning to reason the suv direction.

please which is best among:
1. 2013 Rav4 v6
2. 2009 rx 350
3. 2012 Honda crv
4. 2009 highlander v6 and
5. 2011 venza v6

my focus is on
1. reliability
2. less prone to issues (I guess that's same with reliability)
3. better acceleration
4. handling and
5. better fuel economy.

I added fuel economy because for example 2013 accord v6 has more acceleration and still has better fuel economy than the 2013 camry, so yes, kindly add fuel economy to the equation grin

Every car in your list ticks the index you are looking at but let me simplify it for you

For addition of luxury to your criteria RX350 should be your choice

For fuel economy Rav4 V6 and CRV should be considered.
