Lol...
Really

femmy2010:
I would buy a salvage/Flawed one in the USA ,get it repaired in Nigeria and i would have gotten myself a fair bargain for N1.4m - N1.6m.
The point is not all buyers want to drive a salvaged or refurbished one .

Thanks

That means ur Your answer is No,
That's all I want to hear

femmy2010:
I am not saying the OP should buy one for N2.2m ,i am just saying saying all RX300 shouldnt be priced above N1.7m sounds unfair to a clean title car seller.
Go online ,search and show me 3 clean title 2003 RX300 selling for Less than $3,500(I can almost thumb my chest that you wont find .

Thanks

Oh I get your point,
But will you by a clean rx300 for ur slf @2.2m?

femmy2010:
N1.7m might not always be a max tag for a very clean{Clean title )RX300.
A flawless 2003 RX300 wont sell for less than $4,000 in the USA , trucking and shipping could take up to $1,200 or more,wire transfer charge would comfortably takes its own share of $100 while clearing in Lagos would take N420,000.
Giving the prevailing exchange rate of N242 to a Dollars then we already have a little over N1.7m to land it in Lagos .Dealer return on investing his N1.7m is not included already .
NOTE - Most of the N1.7m and lower buyers see are salvage vehicles (we) dealers repair thus able to sell lower but note that not all buyers want to drive repair/refurbished salvage cars.

@OP .go for the Lexus at a fairly priced down price .
Best of Luck.

Oga I deal with cars too,
But it doesn't make sense spending 2.2M on a rx300 be it 01,02 or 03
Mind you not all rx300 BTW 1.4 -1.7 are salvage
Matters on the dealer, also depends on getting a good deal,
And that car op is talking about has been imported b4 d rise in dollar
..
Rather than me spending such on a 2003 vehicle, there are other options and good deals to invest 2.2m on

Have seen lots or cool deals, lots of clean titled rx330 going for 2.3-2.5 e.t.c that doesn't mean it's the standard price

diportivo:
Certainly didnt look ugly to me wen i was rocking on

Op,u will enjoy d ride.just buy a good one

Thats d only car i av owned dat i accelerated d speedometer to the end...180 mph or so...didnt realise till i saw i wasnt going any faster and i checked d speedo...ofcos i had to sharply slow down

trendytrendz:
my smile speed hits 25mbps

That's not ur actual download speed
U'll be getting around 3-4 mb/s

.

lonelydora:
Come throw the party for cartalk section and not here so that the drinks go do us wella.

Hehehe... I see you bros

3.5G Hspa is approximately 4G which is what most service providers Show on there phone,
4G is still 3g to those who have some bold5 or samsung including Htc too that shows 4g what u av is 3.5g but it's just approximate it.

The Main 4G Network Is LTE, which is very fast no doubt, but even 3.5g in most countries is faster than our spectranet, smile or swift LTE speeds

3.5G on its own is a beast if you use it in advanced countries you know our mtn and co is bull shit, not to talk of real 4g lte

What these swift and spectranet e.t.c are doing is just giving us good 3.5g speeds but broadcasting them through 4g receptions
Imagine a LTE network that can't download at 2mbps even quality 3.5g can achieve up to 6mbps download speed

It's My birthday Tho

Rav4 has only one model, but different production dates,

So buy the one wey your money reach

sultaan:
I meant engine oil. Phone changes spelling on me sometimes.

If you have a oil leak it will do that

leak,like outer leaks that can be detected under the vehicle or internal?
i'll snap dip stick and upload tomorrow

sultaan:
Did someone by any chance cross the ignition wire on the coil by any chance or over fill your engine Kirby any chance check dip stick. I thought they said American cars need too much attention basically older cars need more attention

Lol..
All cars need attention oh,
Nobody tampered with it

GAZZUZZ:

Rephrase ur sentence please learn how to use the word CLEAN!!!

watchworldpro:
No hard feelings bro but why don't you also focus on contributing to the subject matter or u buzz off. This is not the worst thread on nairaland. Is that how you respond to every thread you have an issue with. I am not the only one doing the 'vs' thing. Asides that, I notice that my knowledge about cars has been upgraded lately cos of brilliant and constructive arguments from other brilliant nairalanders. You must be a serious complainer having issues with everything that passes your way. Your risk was not well taken. Na you wan buy motor for me. If u had an equity to contribute. Ehen fine. May you should go the romance section.

Don't stress ppl for no reason, you think it is that easy to start typing and bringing things out of the head, I doubt if u wanna buy anything self

If u are looking for reviews goto Google and make search or goto carcomplaints.com

2.150m for an rx300 is a rip of
The toks of dt car shouldn't exceed 1.7m
I don't even know why that Lexus still turns our head tho it has a nice interior, spending 2.150 for a 2003 car doesn't make sense to me pls go for d Sante fe
Lexus is a luxury brand so it's expensive but not up to the price quoted for dt ur own rx300
About maintenance it's average
If u cn afford 2.2m
For a car then The maintenance of both vehicles is nothing

Even this days you'll get full option rx330 BTW 2.5-2.9

Huh...
I wasn't aware of this
I would have tried my best in donating some stuffs

Olaseunojania:
Hello, are you still interested in d toyota crown? (Its 2'0 toyota 5r engine 4 plugs 4 speed in awesome condition). if u are pls call 07084230035 to discuss better asap

Goto to the autos section, there is one for sale

GAZZUZZ:
You have a leak on intake.

Hmmmm
This car nearly made me vex big time oh..
On Wednesday I wanted to go out, I kicked the engine while I was moving out of my car park someone tapped my windows telling me my exhaust is smoking I looked at the person like a mad man maybe he was high on Orijin I parked and came down, My exhaust was smoking like an abused Danfo bus, blue smoke the type that only comes when the pistons are gone,
It smelt bad, I knew something was wrong, car was serviced two weeks ago with mobil 5w-30 and no one touches this ride, I was so confused, I parked the car

Yesterday Friday, I drove the car out cruising at 110- 160km/ph with smokes puffing out of my exhaust, it was very visible through the mirrors, I was feeling embarrassed, ppl didnt expect such from a pilot
Long story cut short, b4 I got too my destination the smoking stopped, while going back no sign of smoke
Even this morning it was steaming no smoke, even if I rev it, no sign of smoke
So I don't even understand what made it smoke at first..
Tho my cel light came up, I scanned it with my phone
All my cylinders had misfires

The main reason why I hate the Qx4 is cos of the 4speed gear box
Car makes lots of noise because of late shifting that also leads to high fuel consumption

lomomike:
No, QX4 are guzzlers. I've used one before mine was a 2001 QX4... It was a guzzler with an abysmal 14 MPG city, 15MPG combined and 18MPG highway. If I drove in city traffic, I'll end up spending about 3,000 to get her up to half tank again.

Hmmm more like my chevrolet venture too.. that car self na gas guzzler if u no chop Belle full u fit wreck

chibabe3:
I used an Infinity QX4 some years back and swore never to drive a V6 again. The ride consumes an average of N1700/day for a distance of 50KM and it was frustrating, expect the consumption to go as high as N200.0 when the plugs are bad or any other engine issue. Eventually sold it for 700k and had to give myself a treat and gave testimony for God's deliverance.

That your qx4 must be abused am very sure you never even scanned the ride, who knows if all ur o2sensors are bad or even if the catalyst is missing
