Hello, guys. I trust we're doing well today.

Please, I'm in a bit of a dilemma; I intend getting my first car and I'm torn between some options. I would admit that I don't know much about cars hence, my bringing this here. I just want to get a car that won't give me too much headache at least for a while. I can spare between 5-8mil for a car, so any other option is welcome.

I have three options;

1. Toyota Camry 2013/14 model
2. Toyota Venza 2012-2015 model
3. BMW X6 2014 model

Please state your preference and reasons.
You can also rearrange them in your own order of preference.

Thanks.

Toyota venza v4 engine....easy to maintain and parts are readily available and cheap compare to the BMW x6...

But if you are staying in a bad area as in your area is not motorable avoid the Camry cos na every 2 weeks you go dey visit mechanic shop...

Note, there are different variations of the 3 GT
317i, 320i, 328i, 330i, 335i, 340i

The higher the no, the better
340i and 335i has a 3L V6 @ 320hp
328i and 330i has a 2L V4 @ 248hp
They are both turbo charged

The lower the mileage, the better, dont go for anything above 150,000 miles

You can get a salvaged on from copart or IAAI
You can bid ,$3k to $5k you'd get a good one with minor accident you can cheaply repair
Shipping with copart or IAAI is $2,000 to lagos directly through their website, no stress, they'll handle everything. Avoid Nigerian shippers to save yourself stress
Clearing is 2.3m for 2014



Remember, do your due diligence before buying, avoid flooded, non-starter/stationary or vandalized. Avoid undercarriage or frame damage, check dashboard pic to see how many/what warning lights are on, check the VIN info to know type of accident,

Avoid any accidented car that has contact with the engine or power train.

Go through copart, register and bid your self. They have agents in Nigeria, their no is on their site, Avoid THIRD PARTY BIDDERs especially Nigerians who claim they can help you bid. Go through copart or IAAI yourself
