Hi All-

I recently saw an add on a 80's series Toyota Land Cruiser in burgundy/maroon. They said the color was "rare" but anyone know what colors are considered rare for the 100 series?

A lady my Wife works with had one that color, always loved that color on a Land Cruiser. After a few years she sold it and bought a Land Rover/Range Rover, decided she hated that vehicle and got rid of it.

I saw a 100 series rolling around the other day with two tone paint that looked stock. It was a teal / greenish upper with a dark lower. Was kind of bad ass

That's the color of my Land Cruiser! I don't see a lot of LC with this color...mostly white and grey.

If I would repaint my LX, it’ll be the pacific blue, haven’t seen one in person yet.

I always wanted a green over tan Land Cruiser. I settled for gray.

I love that colour, our old work car was that blue, there is another near my house I see regularly. I bought mine second hand, so colour choices were lesser, ended up with base white. Looks sharp when its all clean.

I was sure I wanted silver (thunder cloud)) or black when I was hunting for a 100. Then saw the Black Garnet Pearl and...

... decided I kinda liked it.

That Pacific Blue - if it's the darker one I'm thinking of - is pretty damn rare too.

Great looking rig. That's the color I hoped for. But other check boxes were more important and ended up with white.

Same. Love the color, never seen it in person. Bright blue and teal age well, IMO.

My 99 was this color combo. That was a part of what made me willing to commit to it sight unseen and take a one-way flight to get it.

It's a beautiful color. Looks very different in different lights. Understated and classy IMO.

I'm with you. That's my favorite color too. I have a neighbor down the street with one and that's the only one I've seen in that color.

Those 'steelies' look really good on that one.
