Past tense
As per last December 31th 2007, venezuelan goverment absolutely prohibited importation of any vehicle whoes engine is over 3.0 ltrs.
That precludes any LC 200 , FJ Cruiser, 4 Runner, TrailBlazer, Tahoe, Hummer, Jeep Wagoneer etc etc.
Right now the resale value of the very few Land Cruiser 200 series who were sold here (less than 50) is way over $ 145K
And right now in the venezuelan Toyota assembling plant there are over 3500 imported vehicles, arrived at the first days of January ( they are in bond) and placed in the parking lot, which were ordered from Japan and shipped before this decision was released.
The goverment has refused to answer the assembling plant appeal to reconsider this decision since all of the vehicles were already sold for customers who were awaiting them for more than 4 months so looks they will be shipped to other countries.
