Hello guys, I am shopping for a Toyota Highlander 2008-2009 and I was offered 4 Cylinder model. Is it a better buy compare to 6 Cylinder? I don't know this Model of Highlander comes in 4 Cylinder engine, until I saw this. Will appreciate all advice. Thank you

yea it does have but they are extremely rare compared to their v6 counterparts send the pictures to my whatsapp and let's take it fr there. Is it a Naija used or foreign used? How long has it been used? Is the custom papers available? And hope it hasnt been involved in any accident?

But why WhatsApp ?? This is why the mod think you guys use this section for advertisement and ban you...

This is a forum, you dump whatever you know here. And it’s not for today but for future search...

i have advised him already ooooooo and i never advertised anything and i intentionally said he shld contact me via whatsapp that's if in case the vehicle is Naija used because nowadays we have to be extra cautious when going for a registered car besides i didn't advertise anything.

Depends on what you want in that SUV

3.5l 2GR-Fe
270hp
13l/100km. 18mpg (city)
9.4l/100km. 24mpg(highway)

2.7l. 1AR-Fe
187hp
12l/100km. 20mpg (city)
8.7l/100km. 27mpg (highway)

Do you think the extra 125 Naira spent on fuel per 100km is worth the additional 83hp?

There's no issue only that it is not as quick as the V6 version. It is also more fuel efficient than the V6. The I4 engine I think comes with front wheel drive unlike the V6 that comes with AWD also.

In my personal opinion, the difference between the 2.7 ltr I4 and the 3.5 ltr V6 (with regards to fuel consumption) isn't worlds apart. I'd go for the V6 anytime and day.
