Hi Bros, Are manual cars(non automatic)still needed in Nigeria? I have 3 clean manuals vehicles over here in the States and I'm wondering if I should ship them home to sell in Nigeria or sell here. 1 Toyota Matrix 05' and 2 Toyota Corolla's 06' Please let me know. |

These are strong vehicles and being Toyota products I'm very sure you'd get buyers in no time. Good luck all the same! |

Manual transmission cars are still very much in use in Naija. Ship them down and you will sell them pronto. |

If the manual is only limited to the transmission, yhu will get a buyer at fair price. Any other manual, do yhur calculations properly so yhu don't blame prospective buyers if they give yhu ridiculous offers. |

My guy forget manual if you are buying to resell. |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by JerrCa(op): 5:12am On Dec 07, 2014 |
sonnie10:Hi sonnie10, Can u please state your reason. Did u have a bad experience or what? |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by expert101(m): 10:56pm On Dec 07, 2014 |
Manual still remains the best. Good to drive and cheap to maintain. Most people talking don't even know how to maintain automatic vehicle neither have they changed their transmission oil. |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by sonnie10: 11:04pm On Dec 07, 2014 |
JerrCa:Yes. If an automatic transmission goes for #1M, buyers would price the manual for only #500k. Just bear this in mind before you send the car since you want to resell. |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by JerrCa(op): 1:59pm On Dec 08, 2014 |
sonnie10:Thanks for letting me know. If they price it too low. I will keep it for use at home.. |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by Raymie(m): 3:25pm On Dec 08, 2014 |
sonnie10:That's not true. No car is sold at half the price because of its transmission in Nigeria. At worse, 85-95% of an auto price. E.g a 2013 Hyundai can sell for 2million for MT and 2.2million for AT |

Raymie:toks? |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by JerrCa(op): 3:53am On Dec 09, 2014 |
Raymie:Abi? I believe u ooo. Price will drop but wont be too low as if u brought scrap home. Here in North America, lot of people still drive manual. Even some high end cars here are all manual tranny. A clean car is a clean car regardless if its manual or tranny-its a matter of choice. |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by sonnie10: 4:10am On Dec 09, 2014 |
Take it or leave it, manual drive no be market |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by JerrCa(op): 4:21am On Dec 10, 2014 |
sonnie10:Ok Sonnie, here is my question. If I sell to you a good 2003 or 2004 manual corolla that's is clean for the price of 850,000 naira, will u buy or not assuming everything is in good shape? |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by sonnie10: 4:46pm On Dec 10, 2014 |
JerrCa:Believe me, because of how flooded the market is, one is able to get a tokumbo automatic transmission of that model for that price |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by JerrCa(op): 6:25pm On Dec 10, 2014 |
Thanks all for all ur contribution to this thread... |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by nurey(m): 6:35am On Dec 11, 2014 |
JerrCa:My brother this is a fair price, the automatic of those year sell for 1.2 to 1.3 so selling a toks manual trans for that price is fair we bought a 2006 toks corolla for 1.6m just two months ago around oct or Nov and the best price for a 2005 was 1.5 the others that had a lesser price were either accidented, flooded or had been worked on according to our informant |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by JerrCa(op): 5:02am On Dec 12, 2014 |
Abi ooo.. Thanks my bros.. Its a fair price. |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by Nobody: 5:04pm On Dec 12, 2014 |
JerrCa:people who know what is call driving still drive cars with manual or manumatic transmission, so ship it down alotta buyers waiting. |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by Nobody: 12:00am On Dec 13, 2014 |
JerrCa:I love getting my hand on the gear rod, James Bond style, pissed off by so called automatic, please send down the troops, though their price are cheaper than the automatic |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by Raymie(m): 8:41pm On Dec 13, 2014 |
Bring yhur cars down, aim towards corporate/fleet buyers if yhu don't get individual clientele. Yhu'd get good money for yhur car as long as the only thing manual is the transmission. |
| Re: Are Manual Cars Still Needed In Naija? by EMMANUELLIGHT: 8:20pm On Jun 18, 2025 |
auhanson:Is this still the reality today? in 2025? I want to buy a manual corolla 2016, but I want to know if I’d easily resell it whenever I want to |
