Raptor Killer

But according to fresh reports out of Japan, the brand will launch the LandCruiser 300 Series with a new 3.3-litre V6 diesel, with promises it will outperform the current diesel V8 used in the LandCruiser 200 Series, which should mean outputs in excess of 200kW and 650Nm.

Whatever is powering it, Toyota has promised it will carry "significant" performance upgrades compared to the regular version.

“The plan for us is that any product that comes into Australia with Gazoo-racing branding will primarily be focused on performance. It needs to be the full package. It needs to show a noticeable performance increase on our standard line-up,” a spokesperson told CarsGuide in the past.

Pretty easy: give up your US citizenship. Get citizenship where they sell a 300 Diesel, and plate the 300 in that country. Then do a temporary import into the US where you can drive it for a year.

I would love to see a diesel option in the US for the 300. I’m sure it won’t happen of course.

even if you were able to import a 300 or 200 series diesel here to the states, the issue is very few to no one will have very much experience on these vehicle. Also the dealer will be no help as they do no order parts for this engine. So you would be SOL...
