Our 08 Amazon Green 200, Lara Croft (LC lol)

[elduderino315]

After over 8 years of looking for an Amazon Green 200 with beige interior, my wife found one and bought it sight unseen. I'm so stoked about finally owning a unicorn and can't wait to get her on the trails! Let the odometer roll on! I also haven't been on here in years, so I'll post all the things I've done in my 80.

Nice truck!

That really is a gorgeous color. I've always been a silver/grey car guy...but that green is a real stunner in person. Also looks amazing fully built.

Looks like @MScruiser still has his green Fat Amy beast up for sale:

Sweet rig. Great color and it really pops in the sun!

She is pretty. Congrats.

 

[Markuson]

Congrats, again!

This could be you after a few doodads...

Heck, green even looks awesome muddy (Ouray, 2016) :

Thanks Mark!

I do wish I could get mine sold.

Love the green! My first and only other LC was a green 100 series.

Apparently you named her Lara Croft. Pretty funny. I named my brown 2014 Land Rover LR4 Lara. You know. British, sophisticated, beautiful, adventuresome and extremely capable. Now that I have a white Land Cruiser I first was going to name it Moby Dick. You know. A big white whale. But I decided that was a bit harsh. So now I am debating with my 3 year old granddaughter about whether to name it Yeti (my preference) or Olaf (hers). You probably wouldn’t understand Olaf unless you have young daughters or granddaughters.

Yeah. Fat Amy was a huge inspiration of what ours could look like in the future! I've had my Dark Emerald 80 for 10 years and needed to have a green 200 for my wife. It'll take some time to look how we want it, so for now we're enjoying it to the fullest!

Thanks guys! I'll have to dig in tech section and touch base with maintenance writeups, etc. My 80 is a bit more Spartan compared to this one and I'm not used to all the fancy tech lol.

 

[elduderino315]

Haha, that's pretty great. Lara Croft came up instantly because of that same reason, minus the British part haha. And because it's a LC (Land Cruiser)

Love the green! My first and only other LC was a green 100 series.

It truly is a dream come true!!! My DREAM truck all the way down to the Tan Interior!!! So very thankful for her and can't wait to mod her! Thanks @elduderino315 for the badass photos! Our driveway has never looked so good! =)

Funny- we imported our white early 90's FJ80 to Ireland when my family lived there for a year, and it quickly got the nickname Moby Dick for those reasons.
