craigslist 100 in Denver

This one made me laugh. 2006 with 135k, no mods, body damage front and rear, hail damage, no running boards for $26.5k! But it's ok because he's a TLCA member LOL.

2007 Toyota Land Cruiser - excellent condition, sold by TLCA member

You could buy this nice 200 owned by a Mud member also in Denver with the same miles for the same price.

Its a nice LC. Its not 25k nice. 16-18K in my opinion. About like the one I just bought.

I don't have anything to gain but wanted to chime in as I know this vehicle personally and highly doubt you will find a cleaner, well maintained 100 under $25k. I met the original owner who was a woman in her 60s that babied the vehicle beyond belief. Their kids were grown so they had people in the 2nd row seats only a handful of times... 3rd row seats were never used. Cargo area is immaculate as her husband had a pickup that they used to transport anything other than groceries. This vehicle lived all but the last year in San Antonio and was garaged when not in use, the undercarriage is immaculate. Not sure where you are getting a 16-18k price range without putting eyes on the vehicle, but pictures simply do not do this 100 justice. With current 100 pricing you MAY be able to get a rust belt '03-'05 with multiple owners and auction/accident history for that figure, but not a ZERO rust 100 this clean or well maintained with known service and owner history. Just my two cents.

Youre right. Hopefully they get 25k. If they do i will be selling mine. I would like to know what it brings when it sells. All the best.

If the seller wants top dollar which is what he's asking, he should fix the front and rear body damage not to mention the hail damage. He says he got stuck in a hail storm and only has a couple dings on the hood? Come on be real - everyone knows that hail doesn't affect a single body panel! Any body shop could probably find thousands of dollars in damage not a couple "pings" like the guy says. I have no problem with people asking for and getting top dollar for truly mint vehicles, but this sounds like a guy who bought it cheap in TX, put 4K miles on it and is trying to flip it in a hot market like Denver without fixing the issues. Many Land Cruisers have second and third row seats that don't show much wear and have clean carpets and no body damage, so yes I think it's not too hard to find one cleaner than this one.

Hi all, seller here. I was just alerted to this thread and thought I'd chime in. Long time lurker, occasional poster!

mcgaskins, I appreciate your questions/concerns/and vetting. If you'd like to come check out my Land Cruiser for a prospective to see its condition, you're more than welcome. I'll even buy you a beer.

Just wanted to address a few things brought up:

- $25,000 asking price (negotiable, of course). That's based on Cars.com/Auto Trader listings. Anything under $25,000 listed currently is from a rust belt state (we all know how these rust...), has been in an accident, has higher miles, etc. You get what you pay for with these. Always amazes me how poorly some people maintain their cars. Ask me how I know (3rd gen 4Runner Sport I bought sight unseen from PA. Whoops!)

- I'm not flipping for a profit. I'm not a broker. I've wanted a Hundy since, oh, 1998, and finally fulfilled my dream of owning one. I spent about two years looking on and off for one and never came across one that didn't have a fishy story to tell. I just wish I had more free time to actually drive it. As it is, I'm in the midst of a home remodel and, frankly, the cash would be nice. I've driven it off of the pavement twice since buying it about 1.5 years ago and it just pains me to see it being used as a grocery getter.

- Hail. There are three dings on the hood. This afternoon, I got a body shop quote for $150. I'll either have them do it or I'll take that off of the selling price. Aside from the bumper scrapes pictured, there is no other damage. It has never been wrecked, either.

Basically, it's a turn-key 100. Everyone talks about baselining their new 100s... there's nothing left to do here unless you want to start modding it!
