ok im going to buy a cruiser to potter around in cause i dont really like leaving the rolla in carparks, now my options are either:
SV21 Camry Ultima
*2L motor good on fuel nice interior good size and i know alot about these motors so for me its a safer option
MX73 GLXi Cressida
5MGE dont know much about these cars but i like the look of them.
MX83 GLXi Cressida
Probably bit out of my price range and not too sure about the reliability of these engines (7mge's)
anyway im probably going to have a budget of about 3k and i was wondering if anyone can fill me in on the details with things that a far & against with the cars basically i want a comparison between the MX73 and SV21 cause thats what im throwing up right now, especially fuel consumption, i know the camry, if u keep it running well, u will get about 400-450kms out of the tank.
thanks people. if anyone around hornsby/castle hill has a MX73 GLXi they will let me check out and see how they drive ect id really appreciate it. will provide an offering also 
thanks
Dom

What ?
Of course the Cressidas will use a lot more juice than the mighty SV21.
Unless you like spending 50% more on fuel go the Camry.

If you want fuel economy you don't want an auto M!
If its just a shitter go the camry they go alright for what they are and run on the smell of an oilly rag.
Only get a maunal camry though auto = real shit box

With a budget of $3k go the Camry for sure. A $3k MX73 is a bit suspect, but a $3k MX83 would have to be utterly farked. You'll get a decent Camry for that price though, and parts/servicing will be much easier and cheaper.

Go the Camry mate, best on fuel, still decent on space and you'd get a good example for 3k.

nah i think ill go the camry, like i said before i know alot about them, having owned one myself for quite some time, nice and easy to drive the ultimas are too and the autos on them are pretty decent, hell of alot better than my mums impreza gx which is jsut a peice of shit!
i also want a car i can jsut buy, dirve, change oil in and jsut have to do general serciving, i dont wana pour 2k into it to make it worth nothing more than i paid for it, no fucking point, i know cause ive got a pulsar sitting in my garage that i poured 1500 into, paid 1100 for it and i cant even sell the prick for 1000 casue its run out of rego!
grr cars, bloody nissans thats all it is. oh well.
