I don't know but.
A 3.5L Gs350 is not really thirsty. It's almost same as the 2Gr in the camry but it's mounted towards the back and it's tuned to produce more power .

I don't think you should encounter any problem if you maintain it properly with good oil and good fuel.

Those cars were built to be used and not pampered in the garage. They are built as daily drivers for the road. And they will cross 500k miles if you treat them right.

If you are coming from a corolla kindly stick to your corolla because you'd complain of fuel.

That's because you're used to something more econical but that doesnt mean this one is a guzzler.

nurey:
ARE you OK at all, must you insult to pass a message. If you like believe there is no GD. I have seen a old school one called the GD300 and I know what I am saying.

I don't need to convince you as it won't increase my bank account nor will it deminish my knowledge. Next time try to be civil in conversation and not insulting.

Good day

All Gwagons Are G-Class

The D in front of the G stands for diesel. Which signifies it's a diesel.
The newer models have the D after the numbers e.G G350d

I'm not very sure but I think US spec do not have traficator on side mirror.

You are right. At times it's good to leave matter for Matthias and avoid unnecessary arguments. I came here to sell moto and not to argue. Thanks for your input

I'm not here to argue either. All I'm saying is the crosstour doesn't have Middle East spec.
That cross tour can be from Europe or America but not Middle east spec
Turn signals is an option anyone can add to a car.
It's just like saying Any venza without panoramic roof is not American spec.


I wonder if you import a Bentley or rolls royce from dubai now would you say it's dubai spec too?

You're a car dealer and you should know better.
My last post here.
Thanks.

pafisayo:
Not totally true.. D avensis is more like a luxury corrola but it's in no way near a Camry and am talking from experience.
Corrola wud Def be second to D last born lol it's a poor man's car

I agree. The Corolla is greater than corolla which is why it has more options . And a bigger engine up to 2.4L .
But it can't be compared to the Camry.
That's all

Joelete:
Good point you made here, "everyone deserves to be happy" . I think it all boils down to self fulfillment and actualization, buying expensive things just to help you stay happy and communicate your personality and status to your people. This I believe is a valid point "happiness". I call this material medicine. Lol...

When you have your money.
If you spend it on something you like and someone criticizes you , i know how annoyed you'd respond to them.

A Yoruba Saying Goes. (Emi Ko Nima Shapejuwe Bo shey Ma Jaye) Meaning - I won't be the one to tell how you how to enjoy life or spend your money.

Joelete:
Mercedes Benz Glk, Toyota Venza, Honda accord 2010 model, Acura ZDX, Toyota Hybrid, honda crosstour etc.
They basically wake up every morning to wash the car like it's the most important asset they own in life, whereas the money used for the purchase of some of these cars could help them start a petty business and even start building houses. Don't you think it's just the prestige and social class and the fact that they want to gain the approval of their peers as being well-off that's driving them to commit to buying such expensive cars?

This your assumption is biased.
You say you see them waking up to wash this car means you don't even know them personally?
What makes you think they don't have a source of income?
What makes you think they don't have a business?
They have the money to buy the car and also pay their rent. They didn't come for you for help which means they have money to feed.
This your write up sounds more like envy.

And you're definitely not telling the truth about some of those cars you mentioned. Acura Zdx , Glk? Hmmmm.

You don't assume about people's life from afar. Don't say what you don't know.
People live in rented apartments while they have their own houses probably for proximity to work or other reasons.

Nobody will wake up to wash a car every morning. For the car to get dirty everyday that means they drive it to a far place everyday. Which means they actually have a place to go which could be work or where ever.

You sound more like the npf .


People are entitled to whatever they want to own.

In the USA there are college students who live with their parents and drive cars worth over $80,000 e.g merecedes E class, Dodge Hellcat , e.t.c
Some people earn 250k per month and they can use 200k to buy a Samsung S8. Different people with different way of life and I feel everyone deserves to be happy. Any one who spends his or her hard earned money on anything deserves it.

The simple thing is to mind your own business and make your money. Whatever thing you use your money for is for yourself and your family.
Good luck.

Can you give me an example of expensive cars you see this people in one bedroom apartment driving?

And I hope it's not Toyota camry or Honda Accord.

There are some areas where one bedroom self contain apartment cost up to 1million.
And you don't expect the person occupying it to drive a corolla.

If you don't know, a car is one of the most expensive accessories a person can own.

If I pay 1m for a self contain apartment. I can as well drive a 3m car. The rent will surely finish but the car will stay.

If it works for you, Stick to it.

I'm happy you've seen the light.
Happy sale.

Have you ever heard about Corolla Dubai or South African Spec before? There are few modifications when compared to American or European Spec.

Anyway, vehicle was imported to Nigeria from UAE. How it got to UAE doesn't matter at this time

Of course I'm very familiar with Middle east spec cars popularly called Dubai spec here in nigeria . e.g corolla Gli , Camry Gle/Gl , Prado, land cruiser and co.

The crosstour is not available in the middle east spec. It was imported there . So it can't be called dubai spec.

Dubai spec cross tour
I don't think so.
Car was probably imported from the USA to dubai.

AFONJAPIG:
u are right GLO, has improved tremendously recently I use to criticize them before , but I decide to give them a trial, if I'm not mistaken GLO is the best for internet users, their 4G lite network is very fast in my area, and their tariff data bundle is something to write home about, don't mind all diz hinterland dwellers, how do they expect full network bar when they dwell in villages??

Madam kindly sit right and understand your facts before arguing.

Glo purposely chose Band 20 for their lte because they know most devices don't support it . Because they know if they have lots of people on their 4G network it's going to slow and crash .

Now tell me how many people do you know are using glo for browsing ?

I agree they've improved their 4G network. But if they get half the Internet customers on 9mobile or mtn. Their network is going back to square one.

Glo is shining recently because they don't have lots of customers on their 4g .
I won't believe Glo network has improved until their 3G (which majority of their customers are using ) can download at - at least 900KBps.

Glo is Scrap.

9mobile 3G can download from 900KBps up to 3MBps
Mtn 3G is also same.

Please don't mention Glo Again.

Kizyte:
Oga, he didn't specify any year

Read his post he said 2008 passat

Kizyte:
It depends on the model year, compare the parts of any of Mercedes 2016 saloon car with maybe 2016 Toyota Corolla or Avalon and you'll see a big difference in price as Mercedes parts are almost twice expensive

Why are you defending your mighty Toyota. Did you hear him mentioning Mercedes?
He asked a simple question why is passat part more cheaper than the camry?

This is a Land Kusa not a Prado

That engine looks like a 745 v8

Full duty paid lol.
How much is the cars duty that one will short pay

If you never ready to buy motor kindly leave it.
No car is easy to maintain.
If the engine of the ever reliable camry fail you'd cough over 270k including labor and oil change .
If the 13pin transmission fails you'd also cough out large amount of money.

No car is easy to maintain.
Any part can fail at any time.



My advice just make sure you don't spend more than half of your savings buying a car.
If you do that you'd be fine.
And make sure you buy a car that is In good condition.


All those talk about fuel economy just gets me pissed.
If you intend to to use 2k fuel for a whole week. Kindly avoid owning a car.

Corolla thief magnet.
My bro corolla was vandalized through the night.
Fùck.
The thing just make me weak.

If you don't have a fully secured environment don't buy it.


The Toyota has only few merits .

Toyota has lots of problems which people will act like it doesn't exist because of their mindset that it's a good car.
From
burning oil
Sludge in engine.
Poor build quality .
Timing chain noise / vvti issues on their 4cylinders 2az and Co.
And some other issues. I cant mention.

The cars are not that bad and if maintaimed most of the he issues can be avoided.

But it pains me when people praise the not so perfect because of previous glory.

The peugeot is not a saint and I love it because it's not claiming to be a saint.


Goto ladipo and see the number of 2az fe engine people
buy everyday .
Even the transmission.
Shocks
Stabilizers
Linkage .

The parts of the most reliable car is even the best selling lol.

Real story.
But it's over 2 years old.
Sakawa Is real.

greenhulk:


Not entirely useless. Electric cars are basically maintenance free.. and the person that shipped this one in definitely is not planning to use it as a daily driver. He probably has other cars. And about charging... some people have 24/7 power.. some residents have Mikano and and easily install charging port there. Gradually other people will start importing electric cars and soon our mechanics will start learning how to fix it. EV's are the future and someone needs to take the bold step of importing them. Big ups to this guy, now watch as others will follow.

tensazangetsu20:
It's a G63

Before you correct people or tell them their information is wrong. Always be sure of what you're saying before you embarrasse your self in public or among people.
I too know kills.
Always be sure before talking.

The 2013 and above G-Class have almost same interior and exterior.
They are In different trims . G550, G63 And G65 v12. G350D diesel is also available in Europe.

They mostly look same but have different engines and different wheel size, cosmetics and trim packages.
The Amg versions have hand crafted woods, engines and leather and lots more.


The car in this thread is not a G63 but a G550.

First picture is a G63 Gear knob . Notice the luxury feel? The leather and also the Badge on the knob.

The second picture is the one on this thread which is a G550. Can you see the Knob .

Can you tell the difference now. There are other ways to identify them. But this one is quite easy and simple .

Hozier:
Why would any sane person wear tattoo, dreadlocks, earrings, carry laptop around, or dress too sexy if you are not a criminal? If you eventually get manhandled by Sars for doing any of the above, and you are not a criminal then you have yourself to blame for projecting an image of being one.

Security operatives all over the world have always profiled suspected criminals first by their physical appearance, so SARS are doing their job way laying you on the road for being in possession of laptop aka scam machine, or for wearing tattoos, dreadlocks and earrings peculiar to thieves and riff raffs.

Them go soon carry your papa no worry.

Vanity upon vanity, it all ends here on this planet Earth.

Sometimes when am driving with my car and I see a broken down 'tear rubber' car I just tap my car like I'm proud of you baby.

These are one of the things that make people so desperate and the world so hard.

King Liar .
How many broken down tear rubber cars have you seen?

This your corolla and ac issues is baffling.
I can remember countless times you've tried to fix it.
And it's one thing or the other.

I have a 2003 pilot with ac issues. I've tried fixing the ac several times but it ends up not cooling again.
I've decided to be using it like that till I find a God sent techie.
Because this ac issue be like spirit

Oga, na same thing we dey talk, what ES is to Camry , GS to Avalon, GX to Prado , LX to Land Cruiser, IS to Corolla, that's what i meant

You are wrong.
Es is To Camry / Avalon.

Gs is on a Class of its own. GS Is a Boss.

Kindly hide your face in shame.
Why would you race the Highest trim 5.0 Mustang against a Base Trim 5.7 Rt.
Next time Race the 5.0Mustang with srt 6.4L Hemi V8 Challenger. And see who's boss.
The Srt will trash the 5.0 Mustang .
Maybe in the future when ford builds something powerful they might have a chance to race the almighty Hellcat Or Demon
