Again, you're all over the place spewing trash. Brains isn't owned by Daimler AG, it's an independent tuner that tunes vehicle primarily Benz. But they tune other cars. Learn to read before opening your mouth to spew out trash.

That's the MYTH people jump on, that they use to deceive them, the MYTH that Toyota is MORE RELIABLE than Benz. Truth is no Toyota product is "More Reliable" than Benz. Let's not even go far, let's just use our own society as an example. Let's take lagos, do you know how many Toyota cars break down on the road every day? A lot. Go to mechanic workshops all over lagos, it's usually full of broken down toyota cars having one problem or another they are fixing. It's so bad that the average lagos mechanic learnt mechanic work with Toyota (or Honda) and it shows how unreliable they are. So there's no doubt about it that Toyota's are unreliable. The average Toyota engine shorts oil by default, you always have to top up with oil or else you risk having an engine knock. There are so many defects here and there, but do you know why people actually still rush it? It boils down to money. Toyota's break down a lot, but they are "cheaper" to fix, the average mechanics here know how to repair is because it has very little complicated technology, so they don't need to be intelligent to fix it, even a dullard mechanic can still fix a Toyota (for example, if Buhari was a mechanic, pretty sure he will be a Toyota mechanic, he can never be a Benz mechanic because only intelligent people with high IQ can be a Benz mechanic without destroying the car ) Toyota parts are cheaper to buy because it's an Asian product, and the Chinese are able to fabricate those parts easily. Do you think it is easy or cheap for them to fabricate parts for Benz products? No, it's not. Takes a lot of experience, expertise, equipment and funding. Any average Chinese parts manufacturer can make Toyota parts, but check those making Benz parts, it can only be the top giant manufacturers. If those average Chinese parts manufacturer try it, they will most likely make substandard and fake parts that are either defective, fail or don't work at all. So everything boils down to money. Our people here rush Toyota because it's easier (every Tom, Dick and road side mechanic can fix it) and cheaper to fix, not because they don't break down because they break down a lot. They break down, they spend not so much and it's back on the road again. But Benz is actually more reliable, because they don’t break down so easily. But when they do, they will cost you "more money" to fix. More money not just in terms of parts alone, but in terms of getting the mechanic with the expertise to fix it, and Benz mechanics (the capable ones) are not cheap, remember these guys are the mechanics that are intelligent and have high IQ, so they know their worth and they charge their worth. So a Benz breaks down, and they do diagnosis, they cost the repair at maybe N120k and the broke owner shouts yay! N120k, I don’t have o, I have N40k, and the Benz mechanic says sorry, it can't be fixed at 40k, we have to replace this or that, do this or that. So the broke owner drives away or tows his car back or abandons it there and then goes around telling people that Benz is not reliable. No the Benz is reliable, but he just can't afford the maintenance. Which still boils down to money. So for me, if you're not a comfortable millionaire, you have no business with Benz unless you're a mechanic yourself with sound experience in repairing it, so you can DIY when it needs repairs and save costs. But Toyota is cheaper to fix and get back on the road again, that why most people tend not to notice the number of times they actually break down. They break down a lot!

Just in case you don’t get it, I am not reacting to the topic, just reacting to the quote as used in the movie MULAN.

I'm not a Toyota fan, just wonder why you're speaking in proverbs. That's all no offence.

Smartchoiice:
My friend is a Japanese fanboy. At present he's in severe pains over the revelation here

louiziana:
Please don't insult him in any way sha, let's just have fun and learn while arguing.

colestephan86:
You make me laugh.
Take Benz 190 for example.
The car was made around 1985 and you still see it today. No car was ever made by Toyota that is as reliable and durable as that car in my opinion.

Smartchoiice:
The problem is that people tend to think Mercedes Benz makes only cars like Toyota.... They forget that Marco Polo luxurious buses, trucks which are die hard vehicles and second to none in reliability are also signature makes of Mercedes Benz.


Even Lexus was a pure plagiarism of the Mercedes Benz.

Yes some brands of Mercedes Benz has issues....but true the Toyota Camry muscle is plagued with a factory error of oil consumption that is incurable!! The Camry muscle melting dashboards, the Camry muscle independent acceleration without the input of the driver....

I can go on and on... The Toyota Corolla is no match for the Mercedes Benz W202 C klasse... In any form..the W202 C klasse wins ...
A. Fuel economy tie.
B. Thieves follow the Toyota Corolla
C. Parts replacement is waayyy cheaper on the Mercedes W202...

No, Toyota is not better than Mercedes, and anyone who claims that is delusional.

Finally the Mercedes Benz Maybach is something no Toyota/Lexus can ever compete with in triple lifetimes!!


Mercedes= iPhone
Toyota=Tecno/Infinix

Foolishbuhari:
2 year old Benz what and a 5 year old Toyota what? Many of you just hinge your Toyota love on the corolla and camry! The brand goes beyond those two sugar boxes!

Listen if I were in the market for a car, there are a lot of things I'll consider before settling for one but most of you will probably not understand! Fuel economy and cheap parts(which is actually debatable) is not the only thing to look out for when getting a car.

A friend who owns a 1996 W202 has literally tortured the living light from that car but that car still runs Enugu to Abuja in 5 hours with one touch kick that's after about 4 years of use now. The motor no dey die e no dey disturb! You can't compare it's suspension to even a 2009 camry or corolla and you know the funny thing, it's fuel economy is like a corolla's. Heck a 2013 C300 V6 conserves fuel like or even better than a V4 2010 Camry and these are not wild claims. They are things we tested by ourselves!

Guy's there is more to buying a car. Security for one, safety and all! How many of Toyota cars have successfully passed a moose test in flying colors? See me trying to avoid a pothole with speeds of about 80Km/h on my friend's camry xle the other day and the instability of the car hmmm. Long story cut short, I burst a Tyre because the car simply refused to adhere to the angle I was aiming it to drive through. It drifted and I hit the potholes jagged edge squarely; but that's something I do effortlessly with a C300 even a W202!

Openbusiness:
Yeah, I have seen them, and they are "BROKE PEOPLE". If cost of maintenance is a serious criteria for you before buying a car, then you are in the BROKE PEOPLE category. Even if you have millions in your account, forget it, you're still broke, because being broke is not just lack of money, it's also a way of thinking. When rich people buy cars, they buy the cars they love to buy, cost of maintenance is not and never a factor in their consideration at all. That's why it's rich people that buy Ferraris, Bugattis, Lamborghinis, Porsches, Roll Royces, Land Rovers, Mercedes Benz etc. They don't care about mpg, they don’t care about parts availability, they don’t care if there's no dealership or workshop for it in town, they don’t care if they have to ship it to another country for servicing, they don’t care about nothing. They love the car for the luxury and performance it provides and they buy it. That's what they care about. But CHECK OUT people buying Toyotas and Hondas. They care about mpg, you always see them vibrating like hot oil that was splashed with water, vibrating over whether it is V4 or V6, whether the 4 plugs can drive 1000km with 1 liter of fuel, whether Kabiru his neighborhood mechanic can fix it, whether Uche Obi in Ladipo has the parts, whether the parts are everywhere in lagos and along the forests of interstate roads, they worry about resale value, whether they can buy the car for N2m, use it for 10 years and still re-sell it with a banged up body, 650k miles covered, vandalized interior, gearbox on ICU and an engine on life support at N1.5m. They worry about everything. I'm not being rude, and apologies to anyone that feels offended. But the truth is, it's "BROKE PEOPLE" that drive (own) Toyotas and Hondas etc!
