Some of you may remember this car being posted for $73,100...Well I've decided I want to move this car! I've dropped this car $16,000 below MSRP AND if you buy it before the end of the land cruiser incentive, you will recieve an additional $4,000 off from Toyota! IT DOESN"T GET ANY BETTER THAN THAT....I Promise that you will not find this high end of a package of this new of a land cruiser for this price.....

This is a chance you DO NOT want to pass up. This SUV is very rare as Toyota does not regularly produce them. If you're looking to make a first impression that will last on a customer or client, something to turn heads when you go out on weekends, or simply something that is extremely roomy and luxurious for you and your family...then this is absolutely the car for you. The exterior of this car is Silver, with large 18" alloy rims. This SUV only has 10,675 Miles on its 381 Horsepower, 5.7 Liter, 8 Cylinder Engine, Automatic Transmission and 4WD Drive System. When you enter this SUV using its SmarKey Entry System, immediately you see GORGEOUS dark grey leather interior trimmed with authentic wood grain. Riding in this SUV is a treat because of its almost endless features! The SUV has a Sun/Moon Roof, Premium JBL Synthesis Audio System which features a 6 Disc CD Player, AM/FM/SAT Radio, Auxillery Capabilities (iPod, etc.) and DVD Player. The car also has BlueTooth Phone capabilities, Navigation, Backup Camera (With Park Assist), 3 Driving Profiles (PERFECT FOR FAMILIES AND BUSINESSES!), Power Windows, Locks, Mirrors and Seats. Also highlighting this SUV are its heated seats, Steering Wheel Controls, Rear Entertainment System (Featuring a DVD Player, Wireless Headphones (Included), Audio, Etc.), a Cool Box center console so you can keep your drinks/food cool while on trips without having to use a cooler and MUCH MORE!

This is just crazy.

It's fake "wood" by the way...

$73K - $16K = $57K = still way high for a USED LC200.

How the heck is he still getting the $4K from Toyota??? It's used, not new!

Sounds like it's a dealer that used this as a "dealer demo" thereby still considered 'new' in the eyes of Toyota. I've been looking at buying one for a while now and have come across quiet a few of these. As long as it's not been registered, it's still technically new (not in my eyes though - if it's got more than ~100 miles regardless of who put them on, it's used to me!).

Based on what I've seen, $52k is the going asking price of used LC's with ~10k. Not quiet the screaming deal the seller implies.

I saw the 11k miles after posting. It is technically new if never registered. Should be in the 40s, just like the modified white one that sold below 50 that ipor worked on. I think it was in the 40s somewhere what a screaming deal that was.

I don't agree. How do you have 11k on a vehicle and NOT register it?

A dealer does not need to register a car until it is sold. Many dealers give sales managers, owners, owners family, etc cars to drive with dealer plates. 11k is a lot though, even for a 'demo'. I see a lot of them with around 4-5k miles.

Of course, the dealer never feels that these are "used" cars. They tend to think that the miles they put on the car are somewhat free and don't count.
