Which Car Should I Go For? by Akcc(op): 5:29pm On Dec 24, 2018

Hi..I’m thinking of getting my first car in February but yet to make up my mind on which one to go for and money is actually a determining factor t!
I have a few specs I’m looking out like a v6 Engine which I heard is faster and more balanced than the 4 cylinder engine! I priced a 2010 Toyota Camry SE for 3.2M with v6 Engine and it’s full options! Then a 2006 Lexus ES330 with a v6 Engine too, and it’s full option and cost 2.5M But there’s also a 2003 Lexus ES300 with V6 Engine also and Reverse Camera like the other two cars and all and it goes for 2.3M I’d definitely love to save money on each of these cars! I really can’t tell the difference between the ES300 and ES330 expect for the rear lamp! Experts please should help out!

ES300 has a 1mzfe engine a 3.0L V6

ES330 has a 3mzfe engine a 3.3L V6

both vehicles have identical hp but pick the 3mzfe better fuel economy than the 1mzfe

I thought the 1mzfe would give better economy given the lower displacement of the motor?

What about the 2010 Camry? Is there any major difference between it and the 330? In as much as I want to save money I’d still love to get something that last long without too many problems

The camry is almost 5years senior of the ES330 but not even close in terms of luxury, status and feel.

To me the ES has everything out of the box the camry can be fitted to almost be on par but believe me factory leather, wood grain, DVD reverse screen etc in that ES is top class.

I hate that particular ES because I hate the shape of the big daddy and both are identical I can't picture myself driving that ES300/330.

year difference is minimal I did say go for the ES if you are attracted to the shape and leave the camry.

The camry is a notorious robber magnet and police disturbing list the ES is not

Thanks a lot! I thought same too because I could literally find almost everything in the 010 Camry interior in the 06 ES330! And I like the shape too even more than ES350! Plus it’s cheaper than the Camry also.

I own an ES330. Buy it. Bit boring to drive but reliable and comfortable.

I think a Camry would be a great option. I recently took myself in leasing Camry Hybrid 2018, and from myself I can say that the car is very cool. On account of the V6, I agree, it's a great engine, but I can't say that I'm not satisfied with my four-cylinder.

Lately I have been thinking of that too especially since the xle trim is a little cheaper than the SE and just slightly above the ES330 in price plus I think the xle is more luxurious than the SE

Of course, the XLE is more luxurious. The SE is sports with a stiffer suspension

go for the ES330. Parts are cheap, it's got better road manners than the Camry, the transmission of camry V6 is expensive and demonic, the VDC AC is also demonic, so is the dashboard of the Camry.

I am. GS is not in the same class as the ES/Camry, though.

Thanks! With this I think I’ve finally decided which one to get!
