You probably won’t find a new dealer wiling to help you. Toyota is VERY strict on export poaching. For example, if I sold you a Land Cruiser and then it was “checked in” to a Toyota service center in Israel (or any other non-North American country) [which it will eventually] Toyota will fine me my wholesale financial reserve [i.e. holdback] (~$3500) and then I would lose my next earned Land Cruiser to sell off allocation methodology. Knowing this, I cross reference every Land Cruiser customer to Toyota’s known poaching lists to protect my allocation stream. For this reason, I would have to pass on helping you. Good Luck, thanks for being in the forums.

If you like the LX570 looks then get it. They are both capable off-road and the LX570 will be better on road and has a nicer interior.

Yes search for Beatsonic, they work on LX models 2016 and newer to enable CarPlay or Android Auto.

Which one has the least chance of getting stolen? Cars in Israel get stolen a lot nowadays, especially certain types/makes.

Probably a Yugo.

Probably a Yugo.

You ain’t kidding.

With the LX, I’d be worried about the Russians, and withe LC I’d be worried about the Bedouins.

Pick your poison, I guess

I wanted to like the LX 570 but just don't like the front bumper/grill.

The problem is finding a good deal on the LC.

LC all the way!

I'd think the supply chain for parts would be better for the Toyota. The times I've been to your region of the world, I see far more Toyotas than Lexuses.
