In my opinion.
Es350
Pro: more luxurious, keyless, faster more aesthetic appeal, better sound system, dvd player etc
Cons:
Higher Fuel consumption,more expensive maintenance and replacement parts priced higher. Parts are very attractive to car thieves and vandals hence security must tight overnight mostly.

Camry
Pros: cheaper parts, way less fuel consumption if 4plug, can take lots of abuse from mechanic, can be converted to e-taxi if need be like Uber bolt etc, can improve entertainment system to measure up with es350. Avoid the XLE V6 variant if you very very sensitive to maintenance cost( almost at par with ES350)

Cons: no serious deviations from normal maintenance as long as kazeem (mechanic) don't overly abuse it.

I’m about to be a first time car owner
I’m faced with either buying es 350 2008/9 or Camry SE 2010/11 - these two are my preferences.

Both are registered (that’s what my budget can buy)
Which should I go for?

Thanks.

AJIBBS:


Thank you very much.
Heard the Lexus has the same engine with the CAMRY 2010 SE, so it’s not much of a difference in terms of maintenance and fuel consumption, is it true?
