Autoblog.com has a set of newest '08 LC photos (via Honduras)
And they're available in hi res for those of you who'd like a wallpaper. I suspect one of them was snapped in Dubai (tower in the background)

Better than the 100.

I want to see it without the sticker package and I would like to know wheelbase, overall length and width. Does anyone have those meassurements? And is the US market getting the twin turbo diesel?

damn that is ugly! It is a copy of a montero IMHO! I won't touch that with a 10 foot poll. I would rather have an fjcruiser than that.

I am keeping my fingers crossed for that it looks better in person and the stickers will be removed. Also, the interior wood trim in front of the passenger seat looks super cheap. Like a GM rental car or something.

I'm quite sure the stickers will only be used (optional?) on some markets, such as Japanese, Mideastern and African. They were already on some 60s, 80s and 100s in those markets. So as other previous pics showed stickerless new LCs, I wouldn't worry too much about that particular feature.

Wow, I think this is definitely one that has to be seen in person to get an accurate opinion. The first picture, the way the fender flare incorporates into the bumper looks like a new pathfinder, sort of...

The LEAST Toyota could've done was carve the buldges on the front and rear fender instead of smoothing them out. It looks like something is missiong. Probably bigger fender flares would give this LC a more masculine look for an otherwise feminen body style. I'm glad these new LCs are out. This'll drive the prices down for the used LC100s and I can finally buy one and build it

Not impressed. I completely agree with the similarities of the other models. It looks too low to the ground although this is the current trend. On another note I thought the 80's were the most ugly things around at the time I now I marvel at it.

I think my Montero is nicer...

Huh? The LC100 design, while not everyone's favorite, is a classic. While I agree that the only way to judge this design is to see it in person (for me, any model LC looks better in the flesh than on the screen), I can't see this being one of the all-time great LC designs.

That'd be reserved for the LC100.

I just saw a 2008 Highlander in the flesh and the similarities are sickening....(IMO)

I am just jealous of the ultra - clean new carpet, I wish mine looked that good still

So can anyone say what running gear the highlander has in it ........transmission/transfer/front&rear diffs???
