Run away from Camry 2008 I4 with 2az engine. Go for the V6 option.

Hope you have a competent mechanic who would inspect it for you? If not contact GAZZUZZ, trygo, autologic etc.

Parts are very expensive for all cars now so buy a very good car

Where is your base?

My advice will be you go for a jeep if you are in Lagos because of the bad roads and flooding.

Oga, the V4 is good.
Go get it, it's a beautiful car.


But in this perilous Agbado Plus Cassava time, I suggest you get the 2010 or 2011 and if cash ain't a problem, the newer 2013 model is the Best.

2008 Toks sells for 3.5m, while 2010 sells for 4m.
But the best deal is Clean Naija used 2013 model at 3.5m.


Not forgetting; A Camry is always a Camry, those models are super cars.
BUT whatever you buy, NEVER near a Corolla.

Thank me later.

But the I4 of that Camry uses a 2AZ-... engine that has a factory defect that makes it burn oil.

As a first time car owner, you may not know how to manage it. And this may lead to engine knock.

Buy the V6 version.

Or buy Camry 2010.

2008 Camry 4 cylinders that burns oil is what you are recommending for a first time car owner? Someone that probably doesn't know anything about car maintenance?

You are truly a genius.

because your car burns oil, you think all other cars burns too?
I've got three 2008 Camrys around me and they're ain't burning shitt.
Just cos someone is a first timer means he should buy a bolt car?
Tons of first timers are buying Benz's, Lexus, Venza, etc and nothing happened.
Get the shittts outta your head, everyone is not a deadbeat shitt like you.
And honestly, if you were any slower, you'd be going backwards.

Toyota Camry 2007-2011 is a beautiful machine.

Idiots are always very loud in their ignorance and stupidity.

Where did I ask him to buy a bolt car? And what's even a bolt car?

Are you sure you own a car personally?

I specifically asked the OP to avoid 2007 to 2009 Toyota Camry, especially the ones with 2AZ engines because they have a factory defect that make them burn oil.

I proceeded to advise him to buy the 2010 model instead.

But an idiot like you who doesn't even own a car would rather go around spreading ignorance.

Leave the guy. He knows nothing about the car. He classified it as 2007-2011. He should first know the difference between 2007-2009 and 2010-2011

As far as he is concerned, all 2007-2011 Camrys na Spider and they are all the same grin


Being ignorant of some stuff isn't a problem..after all we are human and we can't know everything

Well I use the 08 version as a first timer , did not know much prior to buying it and luckily it’s been okay for me.
Buh I’ll advise anyone who wants to buy that model of Camry to get 10/11 version.
Saves you a lot of stress particularly engine oil shortening.

There’s nothing like v4

The V there comes from the arrangement of the plugs and the 4 cylinder engine is arranged vertically, thus it’s called i4

While the 6 cylinder engine is arranged like a V, thus called V6

With that out of the way

Don’t advise anybody to go for a Camry 07-010 i4 engine

They are known for oil burning issues which always leaves the engine in a messy situation and also cost you money always topping oil
