I'm seeing the new GX everywhere. I serviced my LX the other day there were 4 of them in the new car delivery bays. The GX is very compelling. And for not much savings you can have a Landcruiser 250 which feels like it's $30,000 cheaper. At least the 200s the Toyota didn't feel like a massive...
Answer: The 13-15 LC is great and the newer LX isn’t that much of an improvement based on your needs.
I drive other luxury cars so I’m under no illusion my LX is too nice to get dirty. It’s an LC with some nicer leather, goodies, and dealer network.
It's an emotional decision, is this the color and spec you want or do you just like the condition? The poster above makes sense in terms of fleet additions. I'd only replace if this is the exact one you want.
I do understand the itch when you find a good condition SUV. Because they're used as...
I’d get that 2021. They don’t make em anymore. What the hell are you waiting for? You’re asking this question as if Toyota is never stopping production on 200s. Why not get the best and the latest? The 8 speed transmission is awesome. You can slowly do your mods on the perfect platform.

Theres another thing too, in America we have plenty of financing and leasing options. So it encourages consumerism and disposable cars. Toyota...
I sat in a 300 at the dealer after I dropped mine for service. It felt as well built as mine, just with lighter components. I know it goes against what we all love.
To be fair to Toyota, I have felt the same thing in every new Porsche model. The new Cayenne's materials even 5 feet away with the...
Everybody has different tastes. I do think the Tesla Model 3 is a marvel though the versatility of that car is just astonishing.
Once I build the rest of the fleet out I’m sure I’ll add an electric car.
And the role of it will be: the car I drive when I’m stupendously hungover lol, silent...
It’s cyclical, I think in a way there will be more car enthusiasts as we’re going through a similar thing that happened in watches decades ago.
I see kids in the future asking us “you let them phase out these incredible machines!? What were you thinking!?”
