Want to see Amazon Green LC in person.

[bigandtall]

Anyone own one in Indiana, or traveling through Indiana soon, that would be willing to let me see their rig in person?

I've been looking for a 200 series for quite awhile. There are a lot of good deals showing up on 2013+ LC around here and I'm not blessed with wealth like I had hoped to be by this point in my life, so I'll only be able to do this kind of purchase once. Because of this, I want to actually see all the colors before I make a financial commitment that I can't undue. I've seen them all but one now.

I cannot find any Amazon Green rigs, new or used, within any reasonable driving distance to go look at. So, before I buy any bargain blowout end of year priced black or white LC, I need to see a green one. And I can't make a final decision until I do. Anyone able to help?

I am not going to be able to show you mine, but I will guarantee you that it is the best looking, and hardest to get color in the used market. The light blue may actually be rarer, but it's not bacause it's pretty, it's just because no one ordered them. Come to mississippi, and you can see mine.

If you really just want to see the color, they make camrys, tundras, etc in the same

I realize the pic doesn't help but here's a shot of my blue one next to a green one last year in Hilton Head SC. I agree, green is by far the best color. I do like our blue since it's also pretty rare. I say go for it!

Hmm, I only see Scions in that same color/paint code.

Here is a picture of my 2011. I have since pulled the running boards, and put a set of 295/65/18 Duratracs on it. I am in the process of buying a lift, probably 3" from either a set of ICONs or Kings.

This is a shameless poser shot:

Nice pictures guys and good idea about the Scion. I found a YouTube dealership video from a few years ago showing their green 2013 Land Cruiser for sale. That video panned across the windshield and showed the shipping sticker, which when paused, can be read as "SPRUCE MICA" "TOYOTA LAND CRUISER" "4 X 4 WAGON"

Maybe it's the same as the Tundra's Spruce Mica color?

Though not always accurate, this guy has done a great job of compiling Toyota/Lexus/Scion paint colors...

Ha, this is so funny...I was just about to say that my neighbor has a green one, and the color is awesome. This is my neighbor's LC in the picture! How funny is that?

That's pretty awesome. I was pleasantly surprised when I came out of the grocery store and they were parked right next to me.. Matching Thule box and all. I seriously love that color.

PS- hope they aren't the type to mind their license plate being posted. I was on my phone so didn't have a chance to wipe it.

The Thule box is how I recognized it was them. I just happened to see them leave for Thanksgiving the other day with the Thule box on top, so when I saw your picture I figured there weren't too many green LC's around, but since Hilton Head is pretty much a mecca for Atlantans, I checked to see if it was the same license plate, and it was. I still can't get over what a coincidence this is.

BTW, sorry to hijack this thread bigandtall. I hope you find your green cruiser.

Thanks, and no worries! From the advice here I searched toyota reference.com and then autotrader.com for a used green 2011 or 2012 Scion xB and only 7 popped up nationwide - one here in town! Unfortunately, I've been out of work taking care of a sick family all week so I hope it's still there by the weekend when I can escape the germ fest here.

I find it funny that folks who are South Carolina natives generally do not visit Hilton Head. Yes, some South Carolina natives do visit Myrtle Beach though..... What a wonderfully weird place.




Oh, and the Green Cruiser: I want one too and am lightly looking. My Pop expressed interest in buying my black 200 if I find myself considering a change.

 

[MScruiser]

Well, as far as I can tell, there are only 3 for sale nationally right now. The 2013 at Pedersen Toyota (where I bought my 2011) is way overpriced (if you ask me), and the two 2008s have been for sale for a looong time. Both of those dealers a sketchy. I have contacted both in the past.

The green on tans (which I think are the best looking) are even harder to find than the green on grey/black/whatever that color is. It took me about a year to find such a combo that had been well maintained, and also was not too high in mileage. Good luck with your search!

 

[dukmon]

I can't stand grey.

I guess the 2013 you mentioned doesn't have a tan interior, right?

 

[MScruiser]

Correct. Its a 2013 with something like 14k for $67k or so.

 

[bigandtall]

So I looked online at the 2013 at Pedersen. Bummer their price is so high. There are 2 black one one silver 2013 LCs for sale here locally for $57,900 to 59,900 with less than 20K miles. Seems we can all find decent deals on things we weren't looking for.

The 2013 and up Amazon Green LC here in the US only comes with black leather. I wish it came in the beige. My search continues...

 

[Skiime]

Yeah, $67k is way too much, but have you talked to them about their price? I would give them an offer of $58k and see what they say.

 

[MScruiser]

If you want to talk to someone at Pedersen, IM me. I have the contact info of my salesman, Jeff. He was friendly, helpful, and did a hell of a nice job of working with me on the price.
