Anything new with 2010 models?

The 3rd year of the LC80 introduced the 1FZ and associated changes.

The 3rd year of the LC100 removed the locker and put in ATRAC and LATCH &c.

Are there any changes reasonably expected in the 3rd year of the LC200?

4.6 will replace 4.7 in world market except North America
A new trim level for these world markets as well

For North America
Headlight adjust system standard (as per what my source has told me, not yet confirmed)

I wonder if it will get HID lights. The 08' and 09' should have come with them for a $70k suv with active cornering adjustment. Oh well, still love my LC. I wonder if the 2010 has the new upgraded lights that maybe we can replace ours for the new ones. Maybe 2k but would be worth it to me.

hopefully change the plastic material they use around the interior. Especially the center console on the back side. You'd think a 70k suv would get leather lined dashboard just like the 80k sister vehicle?

Are you referring to the "soft touch" plastic? That's luxury compared to most vehicles.

The last thing I would want is a leather dash. It's bad enough having leaver seats.

(Whoever invented the idea of putting plastic on a metal seatbelt buckle was a god send!) If you live in 100+ deg. weather where the interior temps can easily cook an egg (literally), you know what I'm talking about.

I like the soft touch plastic.

I got word today that Land Cruiser upgrade will be

1. Rainsensing wipers
2. Toyota Enform (like on star)
3. Headlight adjust (not a 100%)

That is it for now
