shortgun: You're right about the mentality of Nigerians, Same reason why Transsion always scam them every year with overpriced devices, Transsion came into Nigeria with the most affordable prices and Nigerians patronised en masse, Now that their products now have cheaper competitors both price and spec wise, Nigerians are still blind and have refused to wake up to reality. 6 Likes 1 Share |

You are son right chief. I use an Elantra and I prefer it to a Corolla over and over. It's just too over hyped. People fear what they don't know and believe parts of other car brands are scarce but it's not. |
Re: The Crazy Price Of Toyota Corolla by veeberry(m): 9:44am On May 08, 2022 |
Mercedes c180 (c-class) is way better than this over-hyped corolla. Security wise, maintenance cost, availability of parts and reliability is on another level. Ask any good mercedes mech engineer of how strong and reliable this car is and certainly you will be convinced. I always advise people to always make proper enquiry before buying a particular car. I once made a costly mistake but thank God I got it right this time. 1 Like |

You are absolutely right. A lot of Nigerians don’t think this through. A 2003-2007 Corolla ranges between $2500-$4000 depending on a lot of factors (mileage, neatness, year). Adding tax, paying tow truck and freight (all these in usd @ a mad rate). Customs duty all these already add up to a lot of monies. All a Nigerian wants is just get me a Toyota corrolla and they would say it’s too expensive. I once asked a friend how those selling cars sell and make profits. He said, most dealers go for accident cars that will be repaired when it gets home. quote author=Trustme2 post=112624935] Have you asked what the price range of these cars cost at auction, what the exchange rate of the naira to dollar, how about the constant increase in towing and ocean freight, how about customs duties that's crazy, how about repairs when it lands in Nigeria and other exigencies, how about profit. These are the factors that makes these cars really expensive not peculiar to TOYOTA CARS alone. Mind you, our naira is useless $ to Naira is N600 and sometimes it's really difficult to get. So what can a dealer do? I tell you at that N3m no dealer can make 200k on a 2005-2007 Corolla except the car is already a junk [/quote] 1 Like |

There is a reason why the Toyota corolla is the highest selling car in the world, its not about the love for it in Nigeria alone. Perhaps seriously overpriced in Nigeria. Top 10 Best-Selling Cars of All Time: TOYOTA COROLLA. 44 million cars sold. FORD F-SERIES. 40 million cars sold. VOLKSWAGEN GOLF. 30 million cars sold. VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE. 23.5 million cars sold. LADA RIVA. 19 million cars sold. HONDA CIVIC. 18.5 million cars sold. FORD ESCORT. 18 million cars sold. HONDA ACCORD. 17.5 million cars sold. 3 Likes |

wisdomkid: A colleague at work bought a Corolla, he celebrated at mini bar and drove home. As he entered the premises, men of the underworld came in pointed gun at him, he was slapped heavily and thrown out of the car, the wife who opened the gate was on the floor crying. They just reversed and zoomed off with the corolla. Whereas, his neighbors are using far more expensive vehicles and thieve has not followed them home for a day. 9 Likes 1 Share |

ogwuche4u:Seconded! If them sad Corolla fansboys know about Machine-Beauty, Engine, Luxury, Handling Performance and Maintenance, They'll know that 2003 Corolla is an overrated toy for boys with inferiority complex- it's never meant for Real Men. If I've got that 3m I'd trade my ever forward Honda Accord DC for a 2014 Accord. 5 Likes |
