[rufboxster]

its worth everything in your entire life. so go for it and never think of anything else! good luck! theres also a d4d twin turbo but i'd always prefer the vvti. and u may want to check the dubai versions coz they come with more features than the local units according to the grey market suppliers. envy envy grrr hehehe.

[kiper]

If he can afford it and maintain it then there's no reason for him not to buy it.

Landcruiser is the best SUV.


But If I were you're dad.. I'd buy the NISSAN Patrol.

[Memphis Raines]

Is it worth buying?

I'd kill to get my hands on one!! Hell yeah!

I'd get the V8 4.5L D4D plant that churns out nearly 300hp. I wonder if their D4Ds come with the 6 speed auto-tranny hhmmm.

The VX has got 10 (count em, 10) airbags.

Of course, the killer here is also the dynamic suspension system which was only exclusive to the Lexus line before.






*ok I have to wipe-off my saliva now*

hahaha mukha namang may kaya kayo, if you guys want it , can afford it , can maintain it and love it then go ahead buy it :D

land cruiser is the best 4x4 in the world, next is the patrol. If I have 4 million pesos though I'd just go to subic and get a land cruiser there worth 500k. The landcruiser is a luxury car and the 1 mllion tax in that pricetag goes to corrupt officals :D

LC 200 diesel variant VX (local specs) are as follows, 6 speed automatic transmission, leather seats, power seats, steel rims!! dual air bag, 3 year warranty but i dont think your toyota dealer would know how to fix it

LC 200 diesel variant GXR (dubai specs) 6 speed automatic transmission, dual tank, cool box, roof rail, hid, headlight washer, some of the has oem touch screen HU, spoiler,auto diming rear view mirror,17 inch rims, 8 airbags (some of them) this is the fullest option you could get on the grey market.

both of them does not have KDSS suspension, no crawl control feature.

LC 200 VXR variant dubai (gas engine only) same with gxr, KDSS, crawl.

for a 4m truck i would go for this! i test drove one few months back, it runs like a gas engine! as for recommending another car i would go for a LC100 with a 24 valve diesel engine.

tingin ko sulit yan. parang mas malaki pa nga sya sa hummer H3 eh. and syempre dapat diesel! hehe sarap naman. sana ako din may ganyang dilemma hahaha

[niwde11]

if you could afford it go ahead. lifes to short.

[drey]

Yeah... It's a nice SUV... Really nice!

Land Cruisers are always worthy because they serve good purpose! :bow ako: Against the competition with the Hummer H3 and Jeeps... Get the Land Cruiser.

Not unless if you can stretch your budget twice a bit... Get a Land Rover Ranger Rover or a Mercedes Benz G-Class A position a Toyota can't beat... in some ways... hehehe...

[imperialv]

if you're dad has the money, why not...

Ang magiging option nyo na lang would be either to get a local variant or yung gray market.

If you will compare the physical appearance of the local variant and the grey market, I prefer the grey market, mas maporma ang itsura unlike the local variant.

Pero ang problem lang ng grey market is you don't have the 3 year warrranty.

BTW, sa mga sanay bumili ng grey market car, ganun ba talaga katagal marehistro ang sasakyan, we bought our LC 200 from autosource last January, and up to now, we don't have the OR and CR. Sabi sa autosource, inspection pa daw.. ... weird ano kaya ang yun eh nasa amin na yung unit.

[bilog]

If your dad can afford it, hell yeah! who would not want a land cruiser? Just get the diesel variant. yo9u will be surprised how so much power a diesel engine can produce.

We can only give you comments but it is your job to enlighten him.hehehehe...

your or/cr is still in lto, u know, lousy system as always. if its an urgent matter then you'll just have to bribe someone, im sure you'll have it in no time hehehe. all the BEST! to your LC200 sir and you got the right version. its commonly called the "full option"(meaning all options installed) in gulf countries.

At least compare vehicles in the same category the H3 and Jeeps is not in the same category as a Land Cruiser. The LC starts at $63K, H3 starts at $30K and max at $45K, and no Jeep even comes close to that price not even the SRT8 Grand Cherokee $43K.

Go for the LC200!

I didn't like the design initially, but it has long grown on me, and I'm salivating to just see a non-TMPI unit. I've seen a few TMPI units and the steel wheels are a turn off for such an expensive ride. That said, I'd really prefer the non-TMPI units, but then I'd wait a bit for the bugs to come out, so that servicing gray market units would be a bit easier.

my parents paid in full not me.. no money... BTW, siguro dahil sa LC ang ride kaya hindi masyadong takaw huli... Nakuha na din namin ang OR/CR last so plate na lang.
