krakenn111 SG deciding between a mark x or camry as my next car...both from the same company i know but it seems like both have very strong points so i'm not sure which one to choose. can advise me in terms of fc and efficency as well as stability thx.
casshern SG how old are u ? if u are the hippie generation go for the Mark X. and i believe it got a V6 heart. the camry would be for the older generations i guess. which camry are u looking at? the PI or BM ones? i suggest go for the PI ones. they are made in japan afterall.
ceecookie SG Do note that the Mark X is RWD,this means that the rear middle seat will not be so comfortable due to the raise plaform for the drivetrain.
n0x SG this is a no-brainer... i will go for the mark x definately... but then again.. what is TS really looking for in a car?? and which engine capacity are u going for the camry...
gnab SG depends on your needs. If you are young, and not many people will be siting in the car. I will choose MarkX
krakenn111 SG im middle age...37 this year. just want a large sedan that can fit my wife and two kids when we go for weekend outings, convenient for me to drive to work, and luxurious enough to earn the respect of clients when i bring them around. so i shortlisted it to camry and mark x as they are the most reliable and luxurious cars one can get for under $100k. as for the camry i'm looking at the 2.4l one, cos i think the 2.0l abit too small. still not sure which of the two cars to buy though..any info abt fc?
kikenfire88 SG huh? 2.0l camry and 2.4l camry's interior space gt different meh? i thought onli engine capacity is different? dun you think camry is too common on the road now? i would go for mark x at that age
veron soh SG Mark-X,share the same floorpan & engine with the Lexus IS250,GS300[there is a 3L Mark-X],so for handling,go for Mark-X,Camry,all the same,Japan made or Thailand made,only body panels & lights is not the same….so for comfort,go for Camry.
n0x SG if that's the case i would strongly advice u to get the mark x... the common variant is the 2.5litre one which has it engine from the is250... and the car's platform is based on the new gs300... but then again.. do take note that the jdm camry and mark x are from PI.... so be careful on this part... if u want total peace of mind.. juz go to borneo motors for the thai camry...
onlooker123 SG Stupid question from me but Borneo doesn't carry the MarkX right? It has to be bought from parallel importers? The 2 and 2.4L Camry body is the same. Just engine size difference.
casshern SG nope, BM doesnt want to bring in Mark X as it is a direct competitor with their Camry. yes you have to get it from PIs
n0x SG its not reallly a direct compeititor to their camry range... in fact i think it sits well btw the camry and the crown... BM doesnt wants to bring it in cos it will completely devastate their is250 and gs300 sales..... and also mark x is meant for their domestic market only...
casshern SG orh, so its the 250 and 300 competitor. but somehow will affect the camry also. BM really need to wake up their idea liao
alleggerita SG I have to say the Mark X tries so hard to appeal to young people, but I think it failed terribly..yet I still see a lot of people buying it.. But if you are not an uncle, I'll still tell you: X marks the spot..
