HeavenlyBang: 2 vehicles can use the same engine and be tuned differently, compression ratios, etcetera sure, maybe it was some lexus exclusivity nonsense, but maybe listen to the manufacturer |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 10:12am On Mar 29, 2020 |
Fentanyl: They are not tuned differently. Recommending premium is also different from requiring premium. You don't need premium on an ES350 or RX350; the 2GR-FSE on the IS350 and GS350 is a different matter, though. |

HeavenlyBang: Lexus recommends premium gasoline 91+ RON for the 2007 - 2009 Lexus ES 350 whether you agree or disagree with that and your opinions about that recommendation, is another matter entirely |

Bro 07-09 es350 requires minimum octane rating of 91, which I believe is premium fuel HeavenlyBang:

Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by HeavenlyBang(m): 6:52pm On Mar 29, 2020 |
lexini: Read my other comments on the matter. It's the exact same engine that Toyota uses on cars like the Camry and Venza, cars that don't require premium. The exact same engine. Lexus just recommends premium because premium fuel is typically recommended by premium brands. Same way Acura recommends premium on the TSX and FWD TL with a J35, but don't on the Accord and Crosstour, even though they all use the same engine. |

so many experts on this thread, who have better information than the manufacturers |

Good morning guys, I'd love your opinion about Toyota Camry solara, it's not the convertible. I'm about getting one from someone i know. It's a 2007 coupe and really beautiful. Don't really mind the coupe cus it looks stylish and sporty. Barely two years used in Nigeria and still looks great since it was maintained very well. Don't know nothing about cars so this seems like a good option. What do you guys think please. Should I go ahead and get it. are there anything things to look out for. |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by nurey(m): 11:22am On Mar 30, 2020 |

There is difference between REQUIRED fuel and RECOMMENDED fuel |

HeavenlyBang:Bros what if a 2005 Camry is added to the list? Will u still pic the civic? Why the civic please? Meanwhile I am 6.1 ft |
Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by seanfer(m): 12:45pm On Apr 02, 2020 |
DonnyE: I will pick the 2005 Camry. Because it is more rugged than the civic. More cabin space. The Camry’s engine bay has more space for mechanic to work and the Camry has more ground clearance than the civic. |
