Not something you see every day. Toyota Mega Cruiser civilian version. Apparently was a magazine feature car in Germany at some point in its life. Only has 115,000km's (or about 71,300 miles) on it. Looks to be in nice shape, but I haven't seen it in person. RHD, probably JDM. Now located near Munich, Germany.

The ad has a price of 29,900 Euro (which would be an absolute steal), but when we called, the seller says the advertised price is only to get a free ad (if the car price is over 30,000, the seller has to pay for the advertisement), and that the "real" price is 77,000 Euro (or about US$85,000), which is maybe a little optimistic on the seller's part, but probably more in line with the value of the car.

If you want it but you don't have a connection in Germany, contact this guy and he'll retrieve it for you and get in on a ship to the USA:

People who can't even pay for an ad are usually sketchy IMO. They are usually trying to hide something.

If I won the lottery...
But I would return it to its original blue color (or close enough - I like the bright blue on current Toyota pickups).
