I want to buy a car and I need your help on choices base on the following criteria;
Reliablilty
Cheap cost of maintenance
Low fuel consumption
Availability of parts
Either V6 or V4
A car that would let you save and won't visit the mechanic regularly (I heared some car won't let you save a dine lolz)
I'm considering Toyota Camry 2.4 or Toyota Corolla 2004 or 2005. Any other choice or your advice base on the above will be appreciated.

Toyota Corolla is your best choice here because it's consume less fuel and give you more mileage and also easy to maintain. parts availability very plenty.

Note: This does not mean other vehicles are not reliable in terms of the above quality, all cars need regular maintainance in other to stay healthy and serve you well. If you keep up with the rules of vehicle usage and maintenance, trust me your vehicle won't have any business with staying at the mechanic workshop save for routine maintenance and oil change.

Thanks a lot for the advice. Should I stick with the v6 or V4 engine.

Buy Mercedes and your life will never remain thesame

if u r sticking with corrola, I don't think corrola has a V6 engine variant in all its models.
rather engine sizes 1.6l, 1.8l etc

bt corrola will work magic for u o

Thanks bro. So the engine size of 1.8l should be better than the one of 1.6l right ?

Heard Mercedes parts are very expensive hence I'm considering Toyota

not really, it's kind of relative when you say beta, for instance 1.8l has more power compared to d 1.6l bt more fuel will be needed.
if I were in ur shoes, would go for the 1.8l

Strictly Toyota

Hyundai elantra 09 is also a good option.
