let's pretend to be civil for this discourse.
Read my post AGAIN....
SLOWLY.

If Felicity had referenced Honda alone, gravatar wouldn't have conjured that philosophy up there.

He generalized the Japanese thingy, and unfortunately for everybody; Toyota was included too..
He doesn't care about another Japanese brand except when his beloved manufacturer is included (and in this case generalized)
I think your head deserves a bow of shame instead for being unable to comprehend simple sentences.

Stop making stupid people famous, and don't derail the thread.

What do you mean by "growth mindset"

There's nothing 'grown' about a man(gravatar in this instance) gallivanting car talk with a psychopathic obsession with throwing shades at any one who compares other car brands with his beloved Toyota.
Felicity generalized the Japanese comparison, but that dude jumps at any opportunity to conjunct meaninglessness into a post aimed at defending Toyota.

I'd bet a buck, if felicity had compared the Mercedes to a Honda or any other Japanese brand apart from Toyota without generalising, then gravatar would have ignored it.

He's free to permeate his ramblings elsewhere on cartalk, but not just on this thread.
EOD
Is Honda Japanese or not? If yes, go read all you write and bury your head in shame. The original poster said ............ had it been a Japanese car. You were the one who introduced Toyota in the whole thing. The post from Felicia or whatnot does not make sense whatsoever! Is his car an armoured carrier that a small dent cannot be panelbeated?

Cross tour is not bigger than accord interms of ground clearance because its actually accord wagon. People tend to shy away because of the VCM in the V6 engine. But the 4 cylinder is okay.

The venza I don't see a correlation between its features and price point, its tad too expensive for its available options even among competition but nah toyota make am sha.

The RX is a beauty to behold, has good features but also an expensive option to buy.

But for bad roads, the RX would do fine and better than the rest. The crosstour would do fine too as long as the under doesn't scrap the ground and not a flooded area. But interms OF SOLID PARTS, my brother I know honda trumps toyota, their shocks, steering, bushings and all suspension parts of honda always last bad road or not. In essence look at the honda CRV and see whether you like it.
Thanks boss.
The crosstour is like 0.4in higher theoretically but then i researched the crosstour handles like a sedan which is a plus for me. Is the 2013 V6 Accord engine prone to VCM issues too? I thought the earth dreams V6 doesn't have the VCM? Personally, i don't drive anything less than a V6 [maybe I'll try all these turboed 4 cylinders in the future sha] and i don't like a 4 cylinders lugging around an suv body. To me the venza is also overpriced and i don't really like what its offering for its outrageous price too. Just a reliable 2GR, big cargo space and panoramic roof. The RX is way too costly but i like it is why im even considering if i can see a well maintained used.

I like the Crosstour. Comfortable, solid car. Cheaper than the Venza, too, so better value.
Thanks boss. I tend to lean towards the crosstour because of my pocket and Honda last just as long as the Toyotas too.

Hello house, i just want to seek a second opinion on these choice of cars. Which do you guys think is best?
2013 Crosstour
2009 Venza
2009 RX 350
I have a budget of 5.5 - 5.8m and while i don't fancy nigerian used cars, i know my budget cannot get me the venza or RX but i may likely get the Honda.
I am a sedan guy mostly and i still prefer sedan but my new area road is just manageable and not great hence these choices.
I like having plentythings to press in a car grin

amdman:
We have not been posting new cars and advising total landing cost of vehicles due to the ongoing strike/protest by Clearing Agents and related workers. This action, which has now entered the third week, is to challenge the CBN/Customs recent action to change the valuation basis for imported cars (and other goods).

Whilst the standardization of valuation appears to us to be reasonable in other for the Government to raise needed revenue, the actual values being advised are unrealistic and would practically upend used car sales in Nigeria. Moreover, sufficient notice was not given and the implementation which should have been fixed for months into the future (so that ongoing transactions can be consummated) has already started. In the end, importers and the consumer on the street are the victims, particularly those (including us) that currently have vehicles at the ports accumulating demurrage.

We are closely monitoring the activities and would return to posting prices as soon as the pending issues at the ports are resolved.

In the meantime, help me hunt for 2013 Honda Crosstour EX-L V6. Thanks

I don’t know the meaning of frontal impact
I just bought the car from a friend
It’s my first ride

What do I do please?
Frontal impact means accident from the front.
On what to do, meet a reputable mechanic to help diagnose and fix.

BabaIbo:


I think English and lack of understanding are your problems here.

Remember you said it can do it comfortably.
Why do you use the word "Comfortable?"
Do you know what the word "Comfortable" stands for in such illustration?

Contradicting yourself as usual, I mentioned some cars with V8 that can go from 0 to 100 in very short time faster than the ones you mentioned, while hitting that speed but you claimed they are not fast cars compared to the ones you mentioned, but here you are casting yourself.

In your myopic mind you think the words "fast cars" are limited to only racing cars.

Keep deceiving yourself, you better update your archaic memory with the recent definition of a fast car.

A fast car is a car with high top speed or high average speed, Olodo!

There are cars with higher rpm but they are placed under the ones with higher top speed.

You can check online if you doubt the definition.

You wanna dodge or shift goal post again?

I go dey burst your bubbles continuously. cheesy grin
