Go for the Camry.. More space and cool Car.. The Pontiac is Matrix in another body... Body parts like fender, bumpers and Mirrors are expensive to buy...

Pontiac Vibe parts are more expensive but they have better fuel economy. The Camry would be a better pick.

Make sure you're not always dragging road with Danfo's and okadas..... Use recommended fluids, get a small scanner so that Kazeems (road side mechanics) won't help you change the configuration.

How much can one get a small scanner that can be able to scan a 2001 Toyota camry well.

Note a scanner that, I can easily understand the codes and how to use.

At the bolded you’re wrong. Aside the fuel consumption of the matrix which is lower than the Camry, the Camry is cheaper to maintain. Do you know how expensive the body parts of the Pontiac? Front bumper alone is nothing less than 80-90k.

when buying a car, u don't consider it fuel consumption alone, u consider the easy and the assessibilty of part when it breaks down....

You can check my thread for well maintained registered one.

I use a vibe, but if I have to chose between the two I will pick the Camry... The fuel consumption difference isn't much....

I use 2k fuel to work my colleague who uses camry in same neighborhood uses 2k5 or there about.

Pontiac parts can be expensive especially head light, back light and bumper... I went to ladipo to price them... Price were high since no Chinese clowns which are cheaper
