I'm looking at buying my first car, my budget is between 2.5m to 3m naira and I'm looking at a toyota spider 2007 or hyundai sonata 2010.
I want the car by next week, can I get a foreign used within the amount I budgeted?.

do not buy camry 2007,na problem car o.shorting oil,gear issue,melting dashboard.you won't get value for money.get the 2010 if you must.if your budget no reach 010,just get camry 06 if na toyota you still want.

Dozieson:


He could go for same Camry 2007 V6 which is not shorting oil. Camry 2005-2011 i4 is using 13 pin gear box.

Aaaaarghmed:
yes but for the amount he has he should go for 2010 not 2007.

Dozieson:


Agreed

Please does it mean that Camry 2005 to 2011 V6 don't use 13 pin gear?

homeboy205:


They all use 13 pin gear both the 6 plugs and the 4 plugs… but the 4plug engine is what they are trying to advise against. The 07 carry the dreaded 2AZ-FE engine… Trust me 2AZ nor be anybody's mate LOL

Grupo:


I know about the dreaded 2AZ engine. But you worded the post I quoted like i4 engines are the only ones with 13 pin gear.

Dozieson:


the V6 from 2007 to 11 is using 22pin which is more dreaded than the 13pin
cost of 13pin=about 250-320k, 22pin is about 500-650k

Omeiza100:
Yup
You will get a camry for that price range
Better Camry 10/11 4 plugs
You should get within that price

Moyissh:


How much could one get the 2010 camry?

aryzgreat:


Camry 06 big for nothing use same engine as spider 2007, they short oil. Reason most used cars for sale now are big for nothing and spider 07,08,09

kolaaderin:
Nigerians are aware of this flaw in Toyota engine and they still buy it, because lazy mechanics said it a better can. Sonata has a better engine than those piece of oil drinking junk

Lawsaite:
Because the shorting of oil from finding’s is when the car is extensively used for long hour journeys, also 13pin gear is still 13 pin gear or it has problems as well? Besides the pricing though

Dozieson:


Not really! Some are not burning oil. The 13pin gear has no problem except those kazeem messed it up.

homeboy205:


Or wrong oil
