Get the cleanest Honda Civic you can find. Or an Accord, if possible.

No problem boss - I loyal. Hopefully this year you go stroll come this side for the carnival, Logobenz dey complain of him last trip. He drives that Benz as if it's a 911 Tipper and expects it to survive the Calabar- Uyo - Port Harcout road. I laugh in bad roads.

Yeah, I'm fine chief. Lost my phone, again in Maiduguri. So, Whatsapp and other non-essential SM dey on hold until I return that way.

Dear car gurus,
I must say i really appreciate ur recomendations and advices, they are really helpful.

In terms of cars i am a layman, i seriously do not know anything about cars but i need ur candid advice
Am hoping to buy a Nigerian used car next week and am looking at Honda Accord 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 models, and will like to know the following:
1. The best out of the 5
2. Is it risky to drive Honda Accord because of the suspension (k-leg)?
3. Things to lookout for when buying Honda Accord
4. Is Accord food for commercial purposes?

Get the 2010 model; EX-L will be your best trim. However, do not get a 9ja used as you are worried about suspension and other issues.

Get a toks with a budget of 2.5 m but inspection is key.

Congrats.

HeavenlyBang:
I guess private sellers will be cheaper than dealerships.

Well, it depends on what Challenger you're talking about. Anything below the Hellcat loses to the Camaro SS. And the Hellcat is a lot more expensive.

The 392 scat pack will eat a Camaro ss

ivoryhouse:
The 392 scat pack will eat a Camaro ss

False.

The Camaro SS is both faster 0-60 and in the 1/4 mile. Let's not even talk about track performance, the Challenger is a boat, while the Camaro is one of the best in its class.

Accord is bigger than Civic in every way, it rides better on the road too. But Civic is the last bus stop when it comes to fuel economy.
04 Camry: I used Toyota Camry extensively in the past, now I restrain my self from saying things about Toyota because those who like it can't even tell why they do... I no fit fight!

None. Just not possible. The closest you can get is the Infiniti FX50 with 320HP.

Mercedes Benz ml550 2008 & above 380 hp

Paganizonda:
Mercedes Benz ml550 2008 & above 380 hp

Good luck finding one for 3.2m.

Fair enough.

Car gurus compare 2003 Lexus es300, 2006 Lexus es330 and 2009 lexus es350.

Key points
1. Fuel consumption
2. Maintenance

ES350 > ES330 > ES300 (> better than sign) in the fuel economy.

ES300 > ES330 > ES350 in parts and maintenance aspect, cheaper workmanship, fluid cost is less in 300.

Thanks. Someone told me Es350 has overheating issues. How true is that?

And which one is likely to visit the mechanic frequently?
I want to get one of the three cars and I don’t want to regret any decision I make

There's no truth to that.

Buy the ES350.

ES300 was first made, then ES330 was an improvement on 300 while ES350 was a better design car than the previous 2, look at the 3 cars and pick the one that you would like to be seen driving, one that you will smile every time you park it and be proud of yourself.

The 1 likely to visit the mechanic frequently is the one you bought and drive with an "I don't care attitude" they are all vehicle, one way or the other something would breakdown.

As long as the 3 cars are in great shape I don't expect something to break easily but alas the ES300 is an older model, I expect things to start malfunctioning or breakdown compared to ES350 the youngest in terms of production year.

Mr. Nurey you're so smart and skilled at what you say and do... sir are you skilled at checking out cars before purchase? I might be needing your help as I’m not in Lagos but I’m ready to finance you to go check one out for when I’m ready to make the purchase.
