    Nope. This is the Land Cruiser Prado that's been sold in the country since 2003. The 2008 LC is much bigger.

    [SIZE=3]Land Cruiser 120-series Prado model: 2002 till present


    [/SIZE]

    First appeared in 2002, this is the newest model of Land Cruiser Prado group. This model no longer follow its predessors title known as the 'light duty' Land Cruiser but rather as a mid sized Luxury SUV. A new 4.0 L (3955cc) V-6 1GR-FE gasoline engine was available only in Europe first. In Japan, the manual transmission are all dispatch. Engines available are 2.7 L (2693cc) straight-4 3RZ-FE, 3.4 L (3378cc) V-6 5VZ-FE and 3.0 L (2982cc) straight-4 Turbo diesel 1KD-FTV.' In countries like China, a new developed engine, V-6 1GR-FE are available. Because this is a luxury SUV, burglary is not uncommon. For this purpose, the immoblizer is introduced into this model.

    In August 2004, the 3RZ-FE was replaced by 2.7 L (2694cc) 2TR-FE and in July 2005, 5VZ-FE was replaced by 4.0 L (3955cc) V-6 1GR-FE with 5-speed automatic transmission available in late 2005.
    In countries like America, this model is known as Lexus GX 470 with 4.7 L (4663cc) V-8 2UZ-FE engine.

    For overseas exports, diesel models have had the 1KZ-TE turbo diesel engine with maximum output rating 96KW/135ps as well as the 5L-E natural aspirated diesel engine rating 70KW/95ps. In November 2006, Toyota introduced the 1KD-FTV Turbo Diesel (D-4D) engine into Australia to meet Euro IV emission standards. This engine delivers 127kW of power and 410 Nm of torque. The upgrade to the D4D engine was also matched with transmission upgrades to the diesel range, with the 5-speed automatic and 6-speed manual transmissions added in line with the petrol powered range.
    The 120-series Land Cruiser Prado shares the same suspension parts as the current generation 4Runner and FJ Cruiser for the Northern America markets.

    saw a white prado earlier at annapolis greenhills, meron light sa lower rear bumper. does anyone know kung kailangan bumili ng separate light housing/assembly for it or lalagyan na lang yan ng bulb?

    Beyond horizon araneta avenue or dr. G's car clinic might have the parts. Not a fan of keeping the spare underneath but its your car naman.

    Yes, my dashboard is badly cracked. There's a guy in Caloocan who says he can repair it. Haven't tried yet though. He says he can do it for about P8k maghapon.

    Though the Prado with the spare underneath looks cleaner/sleeker, it seems to have lost a bit of "butch"-ness, a bit from the side, and especially at the rear IMO. But hey, to each his own naman diba?

    There's a little more effort needed, as well, in checking tire pressure if the tire is below, compared to if it's on the back.

    sir yung dashboard ko pina repair ko sa pat-paint sa san juan, pero pinatakpan ko ng nalang ng leather yung dash(oem look at fit) kasi pinaayos niyo ulit yung dashboard niyo mag cacrack pa din yan after less than a year. ( napa repair ko twice yung sakin)

    try mo dito pa repair dashboard niyo
    a. boy chingcuaco ( araneta ave)
    b. patpaint ( san juan)
    c. seatmate ( mandaluyong)

    mas maganda po na patakpan niyo ang dashboard niyo leather na similar sa color at texture ng oem material kasi kahit pulido po ang pagkakagawa sa area ng pinagrepairan ng dashboard maylalabas pa rin na crack dyan

    What about the passenger side airbag sir. What'll happen when it deploys?

    Do you have any pix of the finished work? At price range?

    Thanks!
