[@alainfisher4281]

Good car here in Jamaica it's reputation also suffers because of the profile of its typical owner. That being said great performance sedan that lends itself to easy and reliable bolt on and software modifications that significantly improves the car's performance. In Jamaica the Skyline is direct competitor based on price and performance, and reliability (Nissan GQ 6cyl engine has proven itself to be very reliable)

Ice Mab x Squeel - Mark X - kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3vTmGpvppqnZpI

[@GiantMaster]

Mark X is the successor of Cressida, Chaser then Mark II which shares the same chassis platform with Crown and Lexus GS. Still missing my top trimmed Mark X (GRX130 FL). It has the best reliability, quietness, engine responsiveness in its price range and amongst its competitors. Also, its outlook is the best one which can be lasted for decades without any aging feeling.

Ukiwa on wet grass hautoki hapo, ukiwa on grass ata on an incline hautoki hapo 😂😂😂😂. Baada ya mashida hayo yote, utanyama watu kwa barabara, just indicate and floor it, really fun car, 140 - 160Kph is nothing. I was confident enough that niko na family mzima tukichapa 180kph at 5a.m toka Naivasha, LAKINIIIIIIII, brakes ni toyota, drive wisely bado, sometimes ziko on point na sometimes ziko mush

[@johnsimbolei8664]

I was also eagerly waiting for this review & finally its Here!

[@justmark___]

Speaking of tracks and drifting, I really hope that at some point people will bring in the Mark X GRMN. Runs a 3.5L NA V6, mated to a 6MT with a Torsen LSD, has a convectional handbrake, carbon fibre roof, BBS wheels and is rear wheel drive. This unit also gets sport suspension, high performance brakes and a reinforced chassis for more rigidity. It wears a GR badge which is Toyota's performance division but is tuned by Meister of the Nurburgring hence GRMN and it puts out 316 horses stock. Only downside is the chances of the Kenyan market getting this unit are very low considering it was limited to 100 units only in 2015 but lets wait and see. In 2019, another one came out and this one is limited to 350 units. Come the year 2025 ama 2026 onwards lets hope some people will get there hands on some of those 350 units coz that thing will be a unicorn if not already one in the making. Prices start at upwards of 50K USD which translates to upwards of 6M Ksh and tha'ts just FOB.

[@MrAlwilliamz]

There is one thing you haven't factored! Markx production was discontinued

[@justmark___]

@@MrAlwilliamz . It was discontinued in 2019. Currently we are importing 2015s. So for the next four or so years we should be able to bring the Mark X in from Japan provided the 8 year rule remains. That gives us up until 2025 or 2026 regardless of it's discontinuation.

Snow mode works very well when there's mad. So it should actually be snow/mad mode.

I disagree that a mark x could or would challenge a fuga. Nowhere on planet earth! Having driven both, fuga is more comfortable,fast and has a great interior. The only thing we could argue about is the exterior. Fuga is also better than the skyline in my opinion. Having owned a skyline 2011 and fuga 2012 i would preffer a fuga

[@DarkKnightIan]

Fuga is no where close to a Mark X. Take that to the bank

[@MARWASTAN]

@@DarkKnightIan 😂😂😂which bank or do you mean mwananchi credit. I own a 2011 skyline, 2012 fuga and 2014 Mark x... Which of those cars do you own? I know what I am talking about. Make Google your friend... Just Google and check KZbin videos

[@MARWASTAN]

@@DarkKnightIan you are bitter and I understand. Check reviews on all platforms.

[@DarkKnightIan]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I have Mark X GRX120 2007. I talking from a point of guy who knows how to handle his car and I know what that car can do to Fuga and Skyline. I don't usually dwell on reviews but I prefer being practical. So come with the fuga and the skyline we challenge each other.

[@MARWASTAN]

@@DarkKnightIan i now understand you. You think fast means better. What about other mark x owners who don't know how to handle their cars? And when you say you don't rely on reviews does it mean everyone else is wrong and you are right?the argument isn't about a better handler but a better car
