IS350 is good and fast buy if you see a good specimen.

C class aren't expensive to maintain if you buy good one.

Tokunbo or naija used cars are still used cars with a degree of wear and tear, maintenance of former owner would be the determining factor whether it's a good buy or not.

So, which is better between the 2

None is better than the other, enter both, take a test drive and feel their interior it would enable you pick your choice. For naija used mostly the one that is in good condition would likely be your pick as you may not have choice of waiting long

You have not driven lexus or benz before but decided to give expert advice.
Pls leave advising to the experts here so we don't mislead people.

lol,just my opinion, saw the C300 Benz, the speed and balance was topnotch. that Lexus 300 is kind of old and not different from the highlander of 2008. I prefer the Rav4 2009 and that HONDA CRV or HRV or SUV or CUV. LOL I don't know their major differences.

I understand you but you're totally wrong here.
The lexus is350 will easily beat the c300 benz for speed, acceleration and reliability.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Lexus IS 350 is somewhat more powerful than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
Powertrain
With its lower torque, the Lexus IS 350 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Mercedes-Benz C-Class.

For that year bracket a C300 would beat a IS250.

The IS350 will beat both the C300 and C350

The C63 will beat the IS-Fsport

Hello sir,
Saying C class is too ambiguous.
The comparison here is between is350 and c300.
Shikena.
0 to 60 times and times to 0.25 mile is a great way to compare.
Horsepower, torque aren't ultimate comparison factors as gearbox, drag coefficient, traction, LSD, weight and RWD/AWD still play major factors.
The c300 is wayyyyyyy slower than the is350

ksmart027:

I don't think it will be that far difference. I see a lot of cars on the road everyday, and the cars I fear most is Honda's,Benz,BMW,ACURA,Toyota Hiace & SUVs. They overspeed and I rarely stop them & all this power bikes. My department and FRSC work together

thanks for the clarification, but the C300 speed and acceleration is scary, though have not seen IS350 speed or acceleration before.

by saying the C300 is wayyy slower than is350,can you quote the seconds they both reach 100km. thanks

0 - 100 km/h times for the is350 and c300 are 4.8 seconds and 6.4 seconds respectively. So wayyyyy slower

C300 is more like a 6.8-7sec car.

You don’t know what you’re talking with all due respect. That your dept and FRSC work together doesn’t any difference or deciding factor in this comparison.

The distance between the IS350 and C300 will keep getting wider the more distance covered.

u don't get me,we work beside the road almost every day,so we practically see cars trying to out runs each other. And we have see lots of accidents due to overspeed in our presence. One of the fastest cars I have seen on Nigeria road is Benz, Honda crosstour,pilot,Prado,range rover, Hiace,Ford and BMW. One of the fast cars that I have driven that gave me top speed and acceleration is Honda,Highlander,GMC(V8 though) and the Mazda

Prado, Pilot. Hiace, crosstour are not noted for being very fast cars, not even on any Nigerian roads.
Depending on ford, Range Rover and BMW models l, some are slow and some are fast.

Prado,pilot do 140km/HR conveniently and u said is not fast. I use to challenge driver any time I am travelling and he is doing 140km/HR in Toyota hiace bus, because I use to stay in front, because I stay awake throughout the journey. On the Honda cross tour not being very fast, it gap Toyota venza. The cross tour is double exhaust, so they seems to be faster than single in that category. The Ford is faster than Hilux(both are brand new) and is like the Ford is hybrid

kingreign:

Abi o. but it should do 6.5 in favorable conditions.
People just see benz and believe it's gold. Even the c350 go dey the is350 rearview mirror

You clearly don't know much about cars.
The crosstour and venza both have i4 and v6 variants which you didn't consider in your analysis.
All cars you listed are not even considered as fast cars. The is350 will kill all of them and that is not even one of the fastest cars.
We haven't even mentioned the IS-F/GS-F or the AMG variants or the M-sports.
I have an advice for you, go watch youtube videos on fast cars and what makes a car faster than another. Also watch drag races.

Any information on Volkswagen Jetta 5th Gen

nurey:


They are parked because owner is eating by the roadside or even urinating. But the are very reliable workhorse.

12 to 13 came with metallic oil cooler lines so ensure if you aren't buying that year bracket check the cooler lines, if its rubber change to metal if you can. For the V6 engines

The other factory defect is fan switching on by itself even when ignition is off reported here on NL.

Urinating or eating with the bonet open?

sincerely speaking I don't know much about cars, but I do ask questions.my bad On the cross tour and venza, I don't want a long epistle ,I tot u already know since you are an expert. Still I maintain my stands on the venza&crosstour(either i4/V6) the cross T was quick in acceleration. I practically witness this on Camry 03 and Corolla 03(I drove both cars) the Camry is my neighbor car&Corolla is that of my sister. I will like to upload pictures of both tomorrow. I may still be wrong in my analysis again just like u said early,but am sure the Corolla03 is i4, not sure of Camry 03 cylinder. let me say both are regular use of car from house to office or carry children from school. U said I don't know cars,ok,judge if I am a novice with my analysis again, but have been driving since 12years, have heat the road with cars, vehicles and was given chance to takeover one of dangote long trailer(so crazy) that night was scariest moment of my life,but I made it from a dangerous road and dangerous town in 9ja. Don't know I will become a road controller &the FRSC will be coming to our office and we will be working together. Hoping to cross borders of our neighborhood country one day with cars.

No lie, don't know anything about ISF/GSF,don't know cars just like you said, please let me know. If is AMG variant/ Msport,have seen & touch it, told a big sis I like her car(brand new)& will pick it over jeeps(Toyota,Honda,Lexus,venza&Rav4) C class and big Toyota muscle, and aunty was telling me how her car will buy two of jeeps, buy 3 other cars and still collect change in million.She go far by saying I will sell it after 2yrs and invest it in my biz or build more new flat( lots was running through my head,me never buy bicycle or bike, poverty yy,poverty die) also thinking aunty was exaggerating and joking. Told a big bro what aunty said,bro ask did she tell u the worth of AMG? said NO! bro said she doesn't want to spoil my mood or spoilt my stomach. bro said she told the truth or maybe exaggerate it. Lol, u know what is funny, Toyota dat is muscle, she said she will forgive if someone bash it, I said if I bash the AMG, said she will lock me up. My mind was saying she will sent me to jail,if is anyone she may kill. so oga for u to know I don't know cars, what is so special about is350?(wondering what I can do with is350,kindly post pic)compares to AMG?(big aunty knows what I can/will do with that AMG). That Benz C300 wow me,and I will still try and do magic against is350, u said is350 will kill the C300 by far,right? someone in thread said the FRSC&I on the road were day dreaming and seeing nonsense, even said is250 beat the Benz C300. Pls expert should prove me/the person wrong on comparing the is250 and C300... because what I saw in practical is totally different.
