Forget it , Cefiro is too famous for its thirst for gas !!! Will burn a bloody big hole interm of fuel money.Originally posted by cornyfish2000:Hi all!
My dad's thinking of changing to the Nissan Cefiro as it is selling rather cheaply now, at 80+k for the pre-facelift model. Anyone got any comments on the car? In particular, how does it compare to the Camry?
And does anyone know if the cefiro model selling now still comes with the ugly slot-in type of stereo set or is it built in to the central console? Thanks!
I like it better than the current camry, which is due for replacement soon.Originally posted by cornyfish2000:Hi all!

We're deciding between the two, and ya, though the camry is slated to be replaced soon, the current 2.0 model is still 2k more expensive than the 2.3 cefiro. We're also concerned with the quality of the thai-built camry. Anyone has any comments to that?Originally posted by fondue:I like it better than the current camry, which is due for replacement soon.
Cefiro is very comfy and equipment level is very good. The leather is much better than those in camry. FC about 9km/l for a 2.3L is so-so, but I think camry 2.4L should only be slightly better under the same driving condition.
If you want to consider Camry, wait for the new model.
err which 1?Originally posted by bounce34:everyone forget abt the honda accord already ?

Don't know about Camry, but my friend changed from a Corolla to the Altis last June and commented that he stll prefers the Jap made Corolla.Originally posted by cornyfish2000:We're deciding between the two, and ya, though the camry is slated to be replaced soon, the current 2.0 model is still 2k more expensive than the 2.3 cefiro.

Downside of the 2.3 cefiro is that the road tax is alot higher, 2k+/yr.![]()
I like the odyssey tooOriginally posted by PriscillaTang:I'd rather choose Odyssey over Cefiro. Price abt the same and consumes also about the same amout of petrol. But of course, the Cefiro looks much sleeker. When it first came out, I always mistook it for a Lexus.
Agree on the sound insulation. But its still pretty good compared with lots of other car ...... and its so much cheaper than LexusOriginally posted by cornyfish2000:We test drove the cefiro 230jm and yup, it was very smooth... We thought it sounded abit like a sports car too when revved.But thought the interior was not as noise-insulated as i had hoped.
Yup, i think it looks pretty much like the new GS300... the body shape, at least.Originally posted by fondue:Agree on the sound insulation. But its still pretty good compared with lots of other car ...... and its so much cheaper than Lexus![]()
