Rare FJ?

[LisaT]

Hi
I've got an abandoned 2007 FJ on my property. I understand it is a rare collectible. It's been vandalized, and doesn't run. Engine not seized. 6 speed manual transmission. Definitely a restoration project. Before I go through the hassle of applying for ownership, just how rare and interesting is it to FJ enthusiasts? I will need to sell it.

If the frame is very clean and the miles on the ODO low, it could be worth fixing up. Only 2007 that is more "rare" than others would be the all black TRD Special Edition....has black roof to match black paint, and gunmetal color TRD wheels.
That in a 6-speed is desirable.

On the flip side they made like more 2007s than all the other years combined so an FJ is not currently THAT desirable overall.
If its LOW miles and pristine, a 6-speed TRD might fetch like 30-40k to the right buyer. Issue youll have is it wont be "original".

Post some pictures if you have any

Not particularly rare, but the market is pretty good for sellers right now. Get it cleaned up and running if you have any real intention of selling it. What kind of vandalism? Graffiti or actual sheet metal / window damage? Interior damage?
