Good morning House. Please compare 2005 GX470 vs 2008/09 Highlander. Focus: - Reliability - Availability of Parts - Cheaper to maintain - Ruggedness I already know that GX will consume more fuel because of its V8 engine but that's not a major concern to me. Thanks Thanks |

Gurus in the house help me compare the following 1.06/07 c280 non 4matic 2. Lexus is250 08 3. Lexus es330 06 4. Acura tsx 07 In terms of - Cost maintenance - Availablity of parts - Fuel consumption -And a little bit of power for the boys |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 2:54pm On Jul 26, 2020 |
ibrahimstata: Performance: C280>IS250>TSX/ES330 Parts: ES330>C280>TSX/IS250 Fuel consumption: TSX>IS250>C280>ES330 Cost of maintenance: All are ok. TSX body parts are likely pricey. The C280 shares engine accessories with newer cars like the W204 and W212, so that also reflects. IS250 parts can be surprisingly expensive. ES330 is almost definitely cheapest. |

What major issues does Peugeot 407 usually have that people are not buying it, please I need answers |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by babyboy4every1: 7:04pm On Jul 26, 2020 |
Oga nurey and other guru, pls, which model and trim would you recommend between 04, 05, and 06 for honda odyssey. Iv made some researches and found out that the LX has 7 seats, while others (EX, EX-L and touring) has 8 seat. I wanted the 8 seaters anyway. The EX-L and touring has the vcm which many users are condemning on major forums. Please, what did you hav to say sir. I want this odyssey. Please advice |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 7:36pm On Jul 26, 2020 |
babyboy4every1: I hope the Odyssey you are talking about is the 05 model year upwards production was in 04 but model year started 05. but the Odyssey is okay, the VCM was fitted in EX-L and touring, I Know Honda faced a class action suit for it they only elongated the warranty but no solution. but I believe there is a solution for the VCM, there is a way it can be disabled. As for trim, it depends on you, you can get your desired trim and the vehicle may not be in a good condition. To me vehicle condition is most important, other guguru and groundnut can be added to any trim |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by babyboy4every1: 11:01pm On Jul 26, 2020 |
nurey:Thank you sir. So far the vcm can be deactivated, no cause for alarm then. |

Oga Nurey Abeg, 2007 Hyundai Elantra or Toyota Corolla? Gurus in the house. Epp my brain |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 12:25pm On Jul 27, 2020 |
valenti12: Toyota Corolla has been tested and trusted, if you are comfortable with the security challenges and can mitigate against it good enough for you. Elantra isn't bad too but body wise, the Elantra would fall apart easily compared to a Corolla. But it can be managed if judiciously used and disposed off when signs start showing. |

codemaster2much: it's an ok vehicle but the engine and transmission isn't cheap. For other body parts I don't know the price |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 9:11pm On Jul 27, 2020 |
132KVA: GX to an Highlander are kidding me, GX is a better ride by far, luxurious, rugged, loaded, statement maker, dominator. Highlander wins in fuel economy and practicality 2 Likes |

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 10:51pm On Jul 27, 2020 |
babyboy4every1: engine is more than 600k depends on whether it is the ordinary or VCM fitted in EX-L and touring. transmission, no idea |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by foolbuster: 11:00pm On Jul 27, 2020 |
132KVA: - Reliability: both are very reliable. - Availability of Parts: parts are readily available for both but the GX parts are more expensive. - Cheaper to maintain: hands down highlander - Ruggedness: both are rugged but the GX can tolerate more abuse. 1 Like |

I've gone through this thread and no one seems to be interested in Toyota matrix. Is the car that bad when compared to Camry or corolla, say 2004 of the 3 models |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 5:55am On Jul 28, 2020 |
chijioke17: matrix shares chassis and drive train with Corolla of same year. we can probably define matrix as a Corolla in hatchback form 1 Like |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by babyboy4every1: 7:01am On Jul 28, 2020 |
nurey:Thank you so much for taken your time to attend to us. In fact, you're the most active. Here is my questions: is the ordinary one 600 or the one with vcm. Also, did 06 come with ordinary and the vcm fitted one? Or the 06 just come with the vcm fitted engine only. How much is the ordinary one and vcm engine of the 06 |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 7:17am On Jul 28, 2020 |
babyboy4every1: The VCM fitted one is more than 600k, I believe the ordinary should be around 4xx not too sure,.you can ask well in the Honda maintenance thread, luvinghubby should have an idea. The 05 upwards has both engines, ordinary for LX and EX trims while the EX-L and touring have the VCM engine fitted in them |
