2.150m for an rx300 is a rip of
The toks of dt car shouldn't exceed 1.7m
I don't even know why that Lexus still turns our head tho it has a nice interior, spending 2.150 for a 2003 car doesn't make sense to me pls go for d Sante fe
Lexus is a luxury brand so it's expensive but not up to the price quoted for dt ur own rx300
About maintenance it's average
If u cn afford 2.2m
For a car then The maintenance of both vehicles is nothing

Even this days you'll get full option rx330 BTW 2.5-2.9

Logician:
Go for a 2007 Toyota highlander instead, you won't regret it.

FlyboyZee:

What's your problem and this Toyota ish?
The gentleman is torn between a 2003 Lexus RX 300 & a 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe, here. You are throwing Highlander into the mix. Is the Lexus not a Toyota? He has narrowed his choices to just these two and here you are sounding off. Its peeps like you that makes Toyota overpriced in the market.

Back to Topic. The Lexus is a luxury car, while the Hyundai (with reference to your choices above) is not.
The Lexus most likely as seen the road more (except if it is a salvage or lemon) than the Hyundai.
Personally, I would go for the Hyundai because I prefer a recent car to any old car except for Classic cars...

I'll go with RX300 any day.

saxywale:

over 2million for a car without steering controls

Logician:


I couldn't understand what you wrote earlier, can you repeat it?

FlyboyZee:

Go back and repeat school. You'll need it a lot.

Thank me later...

OP, I think the Hyundai would do you a lot of good. Hyundais are just being underrated for nothing. Its a car you would most def not regret buying. The Koreans have come a long way and carved a niche for themselves . Enjoy innovation woith the Hyundai...

timbros:
I'll go with RX300 any day.

Logician:


At the emboldened though.

FlyboyZee:

I don't get it. Please, how do you mean?

diportivo:


Based on this interior picture alone,d santa fe does it for me

Anytime anyday

Logician:


Talking about going back to school.

FlyboyZee:

I still maintain that you really need to go back and school yourself properly.

You highlighted a phrase from my post and made a vague comment, yet you want me to understand. Abi you think say I be winch? That was so Dumbo...

Meanwhile, OP I hope you've made your choice before someone else comes around to add Toyota 4Runner into the mix. Lolz...

Logician:


Well, your opinion doesn't worth anything to me, if you can't spot the error on the phrase in contention, then you should be the one going back to school.

FlyboyZee:

Neither is your opinion worth anything at all. There is no error in that phrase, be it grammatical or on the intended meaning.

And please, its "your opinion don't..." and not "doesn't". It is also "...error in the phrase..." and not "on the phrase". So much for someone who is advising a better schooled person to go back to school. I SMHFU...

Logician:


better schooled clap for yourself prof. I dare you to make a correct statment.

"statement" please.
So much for 'I-go-school'...

People just get rip off for this Toyota things, meanwhile this particular hyped priced Lexus RX series are debaged Toyota(s) the most hated brand among Lexus enthusiast(except Nigerians), because it is believe to have been stripped down, evidenced in the stripped down front wheel driven mechanism etc. Unlike other Lexus brand, a lot seems to have been compromised here. In other words, it is more or less a glorified Camry that is just raised by a few inches from the ground, cheapened down for buyers, but unfortunately hyped up for Nigerians who just follow trend blindly.

The 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe is by far a better cross over to the RX300, though almost of same class to the RX330 and RX350. Don't confused the fully loaded luxury brand Lexus GL to the stripped down Lexus RX series...

femmy2010:


N1.7m might not always be a max tag for a very clean{Clean title )RX300.
A flawless 2003 RX300 wont sell for less than $4,000 in the USA , trucking and shipping could take up to $1,200 or more,wire transfer charge would comfortably takes its own share of $100 while clearing in Lagos would take N420,000.
Giving the prevailing exchange rate of N242 to a Dollars then we already have a little over N1.7m to land it in Lagos .Dealer return on investing his N1.7m is not included already .
NOTE - Most of the N1.7m and lower buyers see are salvage vehicles (we) dealers repair thus able to sell lower but note that not all buyers want to drive repair/refurbished salvage cars.

@OP .go for the Lexus at a fairly priced down price .
Best of Luck.
