Hello house, wonderful job you are doing. Please I need your thoughts between 2008 Hyundai elantra and 2008 Honda civic in terms of:
1. Maintenance cost
2. Parts availability
3. Durability
4. Fuel economy.

Thanks

Are you planing to use the Sienna for transport or you have a big family? 05 Sienna comes with 3.3 V6 engine. If you’re just starting a family or a single guy I will suggest you go for the 05 Camry. The Camry is cheaper to maintain

If for personal use Elantra. But if it’s for Uber/taxify go for the Civic because of it low fuel consumption

Both are extremely distinct and your choice is no brainier.

Corolla 1.6L and 1.8L just a point A to B very with the least use of fuel

ES is 3.3L V6 a luxurious classy car to distinguish you among the rest.

Hello,

As a first time car user, would you rather buy a 2004 2.5L 5plug Volvo XC90(foreign used) or a Nigerian used Toyota Corolla 2004-2006.

The vehicle would be used for daily commute to work for 1 year max.

Nigerian used Corollas have a propensity for being abused. Keep that in mind.

you have an SUV that does 16L/100km city driving and 10L/100km highway driving.

while

The Corolla is a saloon that does 8L/100km city and 6L/100km highway.

Nobody can decide for you,.you may want the Corolla badly but it may not be appropriate for your road network and passengers and luggage you intend to carry. Always factor other parameters before you make a choice

Benz Benz Benz every time. Did the poster ask of Benz?

You are becoming a nuisance day by day. My intuition says you don't even have a bicycle.

Please Nurey, heavenlybang & Co.

2013 MY Toyota Avalon, Hyundai Azera and Lexus ES350.

I’d like your thoughts amongst
2013 MY Toyota Avalon, Hyundai Azera and Lexus ES350.
From reviews and online comparison the Azera has more points than the Avalon.

Azera 3.3 V6 298hp other engine variant include i4 2.4L, 3.0L V6 but that 3.3L I fear it most, if you add turbo to that shit grin RuffRyders go respect you.

The ES has 2.0, 2.5gasoline, 2.5 hybrid and the popular 2GR 3.5v6 268hp pere.

The Avalon is 2.5 hybrid and 3.5 V6 2GR

this particular generation ES moved away from Camry to share parts with Avalon so in a nut shell the ES is an Avalon with a luxurious badge.

V6 to V6 the Avalon and ES are better than the 3.0L and 3.3L Azera. The 2.5L gasoline is also top in fuel economy to the 2.4 4cylinder in the Azera. The Azera is heavier than the Avalon and ES.

in all if you intend to keep the vehicle for a short time and want to be different from others and turn heads I will urge you to pick the Azera. don't dare buy Azera and think it would be a classic, it would just be like it's predecessor the Kia Amanti and Hyundai XG, no parts after long and poor resale value not even poor nobody wants to buy them.

The Avalon or ES is no brainier nobody wants to be second best since the Avalon is a luxurious car without the badge grin why not buy something with luxurious badge than trying to convince people you drive a luxurious car.

If the tough conditions is associated with scraping ground and flooded muddy road it's advice you find something with a high ground clearance.

CRV, Element, RAV4, outlander, Sportage, Tucson, Xtrail, Qashqi
