seems like a pretty cool car for the money. A big brush guard, light bar, a lift, and some burly mud tires and it would be badass.

I think it looks loads better with a 2 tone paint job. Maybe not the baby blue/white they always show it with, but 2 tone non the less.

Also, I thought before they said it was going to be like $18k. Not suprising that the raised it, it is Toyota after all. All their stuff is priced higher than the competition, but you see the reliability results.

I would buy one in a heartbeat for that price. That's awesome.

I don't know it looks weird, err, ugly to me.

Props to Toyota for bringing this back. As a former FJ40 owner, it is nice to see at least one auto manufacturer that relied on old designs did this right.

I dig ... big time. Pricing is fair and knowing the gear heads that love Toyota, I expect to see all sorts of mods for this thing real soon ...
