I posted some weeks ago, regarding a used 2008 camry that I bought, I also complained about It's fuel consumption, nevertheless no need beating around the bush, I would just go to the point.

After buying the Camry, days later I inserted both catalysts, changed oil, all 4 coils, all spark plugs, fuel pump and 02 Sensor, my fuel consumption became a bit better than It previously was.

I have spent a lot on this 2008 camry, aside the above mentioned things that I made mentioned I wrapped the seat 155k, also used nylon to wrap it 43k, changed all 4 tires, changed the dashboard screen to Android, bought spare tyre and wheel, and other things I might have forgotten to mention here.

Right now, the camry fuel consumption It's quite better than It was before, I bought 45k fuel which Is about 50 liters of fuel and the car went 98 miles, which Is 159 kilometers before the fuel indicator went back to the exact place, before I bought the fuel.

This morning someone posted a clean used 2013 camry on his status, selling for 12m. I texted him and pleaded for a reduction of price, which he plainly refused insisting on 12m as it's last price, I was highly interested, so about an hour later I went to the location the camry was packed, it's a SE edition, also has open roof, and It's also first body, which my 2008 doesn't have any of the above mentioned. I don't have anymore funds, I would have went for a direct Belgium. Still camry is okay, it's been 3 years since It was imported to Nigeria.

Regarding the testing, the engine Is as silent as my 2008 camry, you'd barely know or hear the sound when powered on. Also, It's not instantly as responsive as my 2008 camry when you throttle, but still, It's fast and very okay, most especially the engine that's very silent.

So, I'm seeking an opinion here if I'm making the right decision, I have spent a lot on the 2008 Camry, and the engine is extremely sharp and flawless, these are my only drawbacks of letting It go.

Also, I love the 2013 camry, it's size, the interior and the sharp silent engine.

I would greatly appreciate each and every of your opinions, I would truly greatly appreciate, as I intends buying the 2013 Camry this evening or tomorrow morning at most.

I don't want to make a wrong decision that I might later regret, please I need y'all opinions.

You actually think It's a nylon like the ones they normally use for bread? I'm talking about a thick nylon here. It last long and very durable.

let me advise you, from a sincere point, if you have 12m to purchase that 2013 Camry use that money to get a Tokunbo 2010 Camry instead (do your checks and test running very well, I can send someone to help you).
Just so you know, this your 2008 Camry is a fuel guzzler, I use 10k fuel for about 110km (2009 Toyota Camry) so you see the difference abi

Mhen, the difference Is a banger, so much difference, I feel so down right now.

I have been burning 45k for fuel every 5 days all for nothing, the fuel consumption Is really so horrible.

does your car have thermostat?

I went through this op's old posts and see that he's usually CRYING WOLF once a month for no reason whatsoever

I'd take whatever story he's dishing out to you guys with a pinch of salt and a spoon of sugar

RichIgboBoy:

No it does not, the fan is connected directly, does that affects fuel consumption?
