@ Xpensiv,

Seems like the ones from Elizade are 1.4 or 1.6 liter engine. This is 1.8 supercharged.

@ boye/larry,

Its kinda funny that you have the time to email individual pics to everybody else and argue on this forum if the car actually exists or not. However you dont seem to have like 15mins to post the pics online yourself and resolve the issues and doubts.

Its been over a week!

TravelRe: Is It Wise To Finally Move Back To Nigeria? by promise72(m): 10:38pm On Sep 14, 2008
@ poster,

I will say dont just move back at once. Just "ease in" Go and stay 3months. Then 6months and so. Keep your eyes open to what you can do. Yuo might even find a way to rush back during your stay and buy somethings to sell in the course of that 3months or 6months or so.

Dont be afraid. its possible. just set urself up that u can afford to do that. Flight gto UK is only 6hrs. Good luck

TravelRe: Nigerians Living Illegally In China Are Now Going Through Hell! by promise72(m): 10:05pm On Sep 14, 2008
I manage to read all the post. IKt comes down to one thing: CULTURE. Nigerians in general believe that we can do anything we want. Which we usually do back home. However, overseas is a different issue. Rules are applied. Regardless.

We get mad when the rules dont favor us. And we can say "You dont know who i am?" All over the world, NIGERIANS especially want an easy way out. We want exception. We dont wanna follow the rule. The difference with the asian countries is that they dont keep you in prison feeding you. You get punished for REAL.

Thats why everyone is crying. Respect rules when you go to other countries. Period. No short cut. Go to S. Africa and see what hell the police is goin thru dealing wt Nigerian gangs and criminals. Other smaller african nations are begining to know us. Haba na we alone dey for world?
AutosRe: Pre Order Your Car From The Usa, 40% Deposit, 21 Days Guaranteed by promise72(m): 11:52am On Sep 13, 2008
One thing that baffle dme is that how does a 2004 Corolla almost sell for more that 2002 camry. i know the years are diff. but ppl seem not to mind.

Am i missing something? Pls shed some light. We might work together.

Also, what is the rough estimate you have on lets say corolla around 2005-2008. Assuming mileage is around 50k and clean of course. the LE and S model.

Also rough estimates on camry from 2004-2008. LE and XLEs 50k miles or less.

Would it fly? Im thinking of something big. If these oyibos let me.

Which ones can we move faster?

A word of advise.

To all you guys in the UK. The exchange rate is in your favor now. Buy U.S Cars!. Contact resident car dealers and get cars from the U.S.

It will save you a lot of headache! Period

AutosRe: I Need A Brand New Hyundai Elantra Plssss ! by promise72(m): 10:28pm On Sep 10, 2008
@ pryramid,

If my guess is right. i don't think theres a 1.6L in the US. All are 2.0L. But much nice and well loaded. Dont quote me on that just my hunch.

Good luck in your search. Let the big boys help you. Talk to any of the resident car guys. Jenju, viper, Inspire etc

Good luck.
AutosRe: How Come No New Mazdas In Naija? by promise72(m): 6:46pm On Sep 10, 2008
@ Poster,

The issue with Mazdas is that most mazdas are purchased in Nigeria as an "afterthought" What i mean by that is that many ppl will set out for either Honda, Toyota or Nissan and "settle" for Mazda if their money cant reach.

Dont get me wrong tho. Are there ppl who likes Mazda? No doubt. however the numbers are not too strong. If you will have to ship a 626 and a camry for about same price. Clear for close to same price why will you buy something you will be begging ppl to buy?

This forum is a "pulse check" to see hwere the market is or is goin. Nigerian are trend followers. Most ppl buy cars without rhyme or reason.

Do you remember in the early to mid 90's when Daewoo racer is the talk of the town? The car is terrible but despite that ppl buy like mad.

Think about it before you invest your money. Mazdas are great but you might have a hard time convincing ppl. Talk to inspire or Viperman and see what they say.

Here i rest.

its not uncommon in certain parts of texas to be over 120 degrees. Easy. Some parts of California (which is not as hot as texas) can get that high on some days.
AutosRe: Brand New 2009 Toyota Camry XLE For Sale (Price reduced to 5.5m) !!!! by promise72(m): 6:24pm On Sep 09, 2008
DeepZone:
This car is over priced abeg.A new camry xle in the US is not above $28k-$30K and that's about 3.2M besides, you get to choose the colour you want plus other dealership goodies that come with it; How did your own that shows check engine light transform to almost $60k?
whats your exchange rate calculation based on? @120/$ it will be $50k. So he buys for about $30k, Ship for $2k, clear for about 300,000 naira. Will put him around 4.1mill.

He say his price is "asking". Dont knock his hussle. Get ur own.

AutosRe: Excellent Stainless Steel Tanker For Cheap Sale by promise72(m): 3:54pm On Sep 07, 2008
@ moneytalk,

I think you got it mixed up. He's only selling the back. No trailerhead. Just the tanker. Chikena. Thats all you get. I dont think you gonna get a whole head and tanker for that price. For where?

A good trailerhead alone in naija will easily be btw 3-5mill. The tanker is stainless steel. Wont rust. Very expensive.

I will defer to the seller from here. Just my opinion
AutosRe: Excellent Stainless Steel Tanker For Cheap Sale by promise72(m): 2:03pm On Sep 07, 2008
@ poster,

Thanks a lot.
