    It doesn't have the stupid graphics!I wonder if they stopped putting them on or that dealer just removed them. Much cleaner look.

    Ya I know, i would only buy a black one, but the new graphic on the bedside is much more subtle.

    Interesting, so Toyota fines US dealers up to $5000 if the vehicle is found to have been exported after sale?

    Dig it. Lots more subtle than the 2012 edition.

    Does anyone know if there's a spec sheet for the upgraded parts on the Baja? I might be interested in emulating the factory lift and tune that comes on this truck. I dig OEM upgrading.

    I look at the specs and looks like they added a baja kit option over the trd or option. Iirc it's one or the other. Not one on top the other. Hence the steep $37K price tag. Yeah I'll pass.

    The Baja is a TRD OR with the Baja accessories hence the locking diff, a-trac etc

    I know that part. What I'm saying is that the ebay link added both the trd or package and the trd baja package. Kinda like adding a trd sport package with a trd or package if you so happen to want a trd or with a hood scoop or a trd sport with a trac.

    I'm pretty sure that's how the factory lists them. They are TRD-OR trucks, and the TX Baja (or TX Pro) packages are added on top of that. See how there's a negative $650 credit on there?

    Seriously, I'd like a look at the part list for those trucks. Never mind the exhaust or wheels/tires, I'd be happy with part numbers for the suspension setup. Anyone got a lead?

    I confirmed with the dealer, its the Baja package same as 2012, except now its a TX Baja Package, there is also a TX Pro package as before which comes in more than the standard, white, black, silver and the Baja comes in new colors as well. Same sticker price as the 2012 baja's.

    White is the new color for the bajas do 2013 and now there is a graphics delete option that gets rid of the big bedside sticker which knocks off about $300

    I have been told that the lift is basically the same as 5100's set at 1.75. I now have pretty much the same set up, for lift that is. 5100's at 1.75, rear leaf tsb, 16x8 wheels with 265/70/16. Looks pretty close to the same to me.

    It may look the same to some people, but the shocks are completely different. You can't even buy the front shocks as of now.

    The fronts are Bilstein 9100's and the rears are 5160's. Easily $1,000 just in shocks alone. Not counting the extended brake lines, eibach springs, TRD exhaust, etc...

    I was just referring to the lift. I may have been informed wrong, but another member on here who was a Toyota employee of some sort (not going back to find the thread) said the lift was basically 5100's. :notsure: But I was basically stating that you can have the same look and height for a lot cheaper.
