It is a top selling brand and was bought by alot of people so when they get bored and wish to upgrade the thing go flood market.

if Uber and taxify decide to increase year of acceptable cars, Toyota corolla, matrix and Honda civic too will flood the car market.

don't be alarmed buy but pick 09 and 10 with the 2.5L 2AR engine leave the 2.4L 2AZ in the 07 to 08

I thought the 09 also has 2.4L 2AZ in them.

07-09 is 2az

010 and above 2ar

He's probably referring to production dates. But yeah, 2AR is MY10+.

There are 2009 Camry with 2AZ early production, the latter production were fitted with 2AR.

Thanks for the clarification...

seanfer:


Thanks for the clarification...

further more the camry received a facelift in January 2009 and the 2AZ was dropped I only expect a very few 09 model to have 2AZ and a greater % to have 2AR

Stop talking about production dates. Talk about model years.

Yeah sorry sir, I guess this model and production year would take time in getting used to

I read severally on nairaland how people had issues with the 2007 and 2008 model. Particularly, I've heard the 2007 model is very problematic and is rated as the worst car ever produced by Toyota in terms of reliability. My colleague in the office recently changed the engine of hers and wants to sell it off. She often complains about one fault or another, how it once developed fault right on the third mainland bridge and several other issues.

2007 had a factory fault on gear but was aggravated mostly by pouring in wrong ATF, the 07 to 09 with 2AZ engine had issues with oil burn which is a factory defect solution was to use proper synthetic oil, monitor oil gauge and replace oil at regular intervals instead of the nonsense 15 to 10k km said by Mobil just be around 8k or less km.

some early oyinbo users complained of sticky accelerator, the AC compressor too gave way close to 100 to 120k km, shocks gave way easily when the cars land for naija especially lagos users. Also the high rate of hijacking by robbers.

Armed with all this info I believe you can decide whether to buy or not.

I'm seriously considering 2014 Honda civic but I'm a bit skeptical about Honda issues. Nurey and heavenlybang, what's you guys thought about 2010 Camry (toks) and 2014 civic ( Nigerian used)?
