Hi everyone,
I was just curious as I made the decision to buy my dream vehicle, the 200 series again (i did own shortly before moving to NYC) in 2015. Anyway, we all know the 300 series is coming and we know it will most likely have a V6 turbo engine and will look different. I am sure it will be incredible but.....
No one knows exactly what it will be, but we all do know 99% anyway, this is the last year of the 200 series.
Two questions for the group please:
1. Are any of you planning to buy the last year model of this 200 series because you want to own the last 200 series model?
2. What will history say/think/value about the 200 series in 10 years. How will it be remembered well into the 300 series production.
I have mine on order and hoping it arrives in a few weeks.
I plan to keep mine "forever" and I have looked at every other option for a large SUV. In fact, I went though every option out there (or most) and will post another post soon with the thought process/strengths/weaknesses of other competitors as I see them.
I am a huge Toyota guy, since I was a teenager. I have owned 5 Toyotas (old supra, 4runners, mr2 and LC) over my lifetime and my dream car was to always own and daily drive a land cruiser. I own a GT3 but I rarely drive it, like almost never so this LC will essentially be the only car my wife and I own/use.
I am super excited to be part of this great forum.
PS-If anyone/member/friend needs anything in the Tampa Bay/Clearwater area, I am most happy to help with anything, look at a LC, etc, very happy to help. I also have a very close relationship with the GM of a major Toyota dealer and he's a super nice guy and I would be happy to make a call/or put in a word for anyone here who is looking for a new LC or any toyota for that matter.
Thanks and I look forward to the comments and thoughts from my post..
