Where are those who said I will be scammed?

Though I have spent close to N4.1m in this journey.
lol. I wasn’t one of those who said so cos I only just saw this thread but i must say they were right. Even though you were not in entirety scammed, you paid waay too much. The total amount you spent would have gotten you a better car than the Corolla you got. Anyways, money has gone out, just enjoy your car but then… you could have done better by going with a friend who has knowledge on cars or can at least banter. Again. You spent waay to much on a Corolla.

I sell cars sir. I know the rates. 2007/08 may get up to 3.5 can't be more. Anything above 3.5m is outrageous. I have 2009 for 3.8/4m.

Don't go to car stands like that check online or ask a dealer or dealers u feel comfortable with to source it for u and compare prices.
that’s his problem I recon….. he went too do I too know and while he thinks he was smart, he ended up getting cheated.

I was just shaking my head when i kept seeing “i spent 4.1M… 4.1M ontop 05 Corolla? Ahh… anyways this is what happens when people who know nothing about something want by all means to do ITK and end up spending more because they feel anyone offering to help them is out to rip them off. 4M would have gotten him a better car.

he went all the way from portharcourt to lagos to pay double....!!

somebody please shoot me....
i cant take it no more....!!

I honestly don’t understand what people see in Toyota Corolla when we have honda Civic in abundance that you will enjoy to the core more than you will enjoy a Corolla.
The car is overrated. I remember when my mum wanted buying her honda crv, all those church members where shouting "maintenance". That toyota is stronger and cheaper to mantain. 7yrs later her honda is as good as new with all electric functions working. There toyota's are either in bad working shape, parked or sold. Na maintenance dey make automobiles last.

dont also forget the relatively cheaper parts you have with honda with better enjoyable drive and handling. Toyota is overrated

I commend your courage, it's your first time, you made lots of errors looking for a car but thank God you were successful... you spent alot of money I must say, you could get 2012 neatly used Corolla tok grade for half that price or even a very clean es330 for less than 2.5m ... if you had patience and contacted nairalanders before embarking, but for all that it is worth, never regret the experience you had is worth more than what you spent...
I enjoy driving to Lagos and back on my old c 320 very rugged and low maintenance car. Also the cls500 is fuel efficient but high maintenance so that one is for area movement. I'm a Mercedes fan, don't always believe what they say about Toyota's, you'll be surprised their engine and transmission are far way expensive to the Mercedes with a more stronger engine and transmission like the m112 and m112 with 5speed gear.. a reason they call it the bulletproof engine...

Congrats
bro where u see es 330 2.5m?

On a more serious note, 180kmph on your Corolla is not the same on a Vehicle with a better engine rating.

E. g Your 180kmph is just 110kmph on a Honda Accord DC V6.

What I'm saying is, this Avalon at 100kmph will dust your Corolla at 100kmph.

It just like a Keke on. 80kmph dragging with a Car at 80kmph.

I4, but drives like a V6. You can't compare 2007 Camry's V6 engine to it. It's fuel efficient too. Easy to maintain and parts are available and affordable. You don't need to worry about the ball joints pulling off, because this particular model is not flawed with such issue. Trust me, the car is a machine.

Everybody must not drive a bland Camry or Corolla.
