    I like those H2 wheels even better on your first gen though - they look like they belong there. Some aftermarket wheels just don't jive. :D

    Not at the moment but I do have these older ones side by side.

    It's a AMG g65 with the AMG performance studio package so in order to get one in red/purple you'd have to get the same package for the exclusive colors - looking around $230k+
    Just to keep that in perspective.
    How have you liked the lx so far? Why looking for the trade?
    If I told you I'd have to kill you :D haha jk.

    Also a v12 biturbo with about 650 hp so the jump from a Lexus to this would be really noticeable!

    My girlfriend has a 4Runner Trail and I'm always surprised by how comfortable it is to drive!

    I am on my 2nd LX on the 200 series

    I have been extremely happy with them so far but this new one has been problematic

    However been having trans problems with the new 8 speed and working on a buyback through lexus


    I need a 24/36 month lease for the write off :)

    I want to stop by calabasas Mercedes if buyback gets done, as local to me they have the best colored G

    Especially the gorgeous neon that was there last week (G squared)

    Thank you for the pics, stunning truck

    I have other high powered drivers, so the HP isn't the issue

    This would be for tooling to the office at 20mph anyways, so HP would be irrelevant :D

    It's just such a cool factor :)

    Interesting. Not as familiar with the 8 speed, it's a shame you're having issues with it.

    The g2 are awesome! You'll love the dual shocks and I believe has portal axles. Only downside I see to those is the v8 haha. More built for off roading but I'm willing to bet yours would be a pavement queen as is ours lol!
    I agree on the cool factor, my girls love it.
    Ohhh whatcha got?

    I'd like a new rig too. And as soon as I find a nice, white 1998 Limited TRD with less than 20 miles on it, I'll go for it.
