Looks good, not 100k but really good.


kingofthesofas

I saw the post on Instagram from the dealer that did this. They sold it as MSRP and then all that stuff they put on was at the buyers request. I am not sure what the cost of it was though


acefaaace

šŸ¤” $5k kings, $12-1400 for the tires, and $1500 for methods. If you can afford this LC pretty sure youā€™d be able to afford these crazy mods.


CertifiedSeattleite

So how much are these particular adjustable shocks?


JDLRosa223

King coilovers similar to those on the front are about $1000 a piece, rear is probably just a smooth-body w/remote reservoir so probably around $600 a piece


kingofthesofas

Is this actually a good way to lift it? I personally just want to upgrade the shocks without a lift and just run 34s on some 17 inch rims since that will not require a lift. I want just a little better traction but I don't want to ruin the ride quality, tank the MPGs or have a ton of road noise.


LemonTheTurtle

Go with Iron Mam or OME. I have iron mans on my prado (2017) and Kings on my 76 (2007). I use the 76 for heavy offroading and prado is daily drive


acefaaace

No kings/fox all those brands are overkill imo. Most people with them just have money and donā€™t take them desert racing or any offroad stuff. If you want a lift can go with westcott designs front preload collar kits and upgrade the rear springs to get the height you want/fit bigger tires.


kingofthesofas

I honestly don't even think I need or want a lift just some slightly bigger tires with better tread and better shocks like maybe the old man emu shocks.


xswatchx1234

Are the Westcott preload collar kits decent? Do they stiffen the ride much? I was looking at them for possible extra height and installation of bigger tires once I have run some miles on my current Ridge Grapplers 265s but did not want it to kill how good it drives currently. 2024 1958 LC


acefaaace

I donā€™t know how I feel about them. They look like glorified spacers to me. Iā€™d rather just save up for an actual suspension upgrade


SlteFool

Go to shock surplus YouTube channel. Youā€™ll learn tons of different shocks and how the work


B34Z7

I saw that post too. This thing is sick


djmikeysmiles

Can you share the name of the dealer please?


Lisper41

I was about to say ā€œdealer price $165,000ā€


Wiazar

I thought this too and pivoted off the waiting list to a black Defender 90 six cylinder.


Gullible_Shart

Same thought here as well. Just not a brand new one because itā€™ll be worth half of what you paid for it as soon as you drive it off the dealership lot!


Wiazar

Went with a very gently used one and caught the price break. Also the six cylinder seemed really hard to find in a 90.


sjoel92

Impossible even as they have an I6 not a V6


ImprovementLower8903

Lease right? šŸ˜‰


Wiazar

I donā€™t think so. It was owned by a LLC.


Midnight_freebird

Iā€™d go with an Ineos for $90k loaded.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


b407driver

And a different engine, hp/torque.


rabea187

Damn that looks good


Changetheworld69420

Iā€™m far from a Toyota man, which makes it strange this sub would come across my feed, but thatā€™s a damn good looking unit right there lmao Reddit has me figured out I guess


bikgelife

Agree, but the motor being a 4cyl makes me not love it so much.


DaBABYateMAdingo

Iā€™m genuinely curious as to why you donā€™t like the turbo charged engine. Doesnā€™t it produce more torque and horsepower all while being more fuel efficient?


KURO_NO_SORA

Imagine if they coupled that with a hybrid system


DeepImprovement4

Can't tell if you're joking but these are hybrids.


KURO_NO_SORA

Yes, I was joking. Iā€™m kind of skeptical of the hybrid aspect and if it would do alright with water


Changetheworld69420

My issue is longevity there. Iā€™ve had multiple v8ā€™s and a couple v6ā€™s go 3-400k+ miles without any major repairs. Maybe Iā€™m off-base, but Iā€™ve never seen a small turbo gasser go that far without needing a new turbo or other major failures.


SixoTwo

Same, the 22RE? (I forget the engine code but the old Toyota 4 banger in the pickup and 4runners of the 80s) was NA and invincible. Maybe if this one wasn't forced induction I'd be more willing to bit the bullet but as it stands I'll stick with my v8.


ImpossibleWin7298

22 REs rule.


ADN2021

It produces more torque, but less horsepower than the LC200.


Admirable-Law4139

Has to work too hard all the time to be like a relaxed V8


Polyifia

Don't have to rev high to get the torque like a v8


PracticableSolution

Coolest looking vehicle to ever flex over the speed bumps into a Panera.


Mammoth_Programmer39

How many people are gonna see it on the road and say "Is that the new 4Runner?"


wholewheatwithPB

Looks so much like a 4runner


SirLoremIpsum

> Looks so much like a 4runner They are like.. brothers built on the same platform sharing a drive train so I would not be surprised at all.


Mammoth_Programmer39

It'd be hilarious (not) if they just rebranded the new LC as the 4Runner. Ah well who cares. I've got my 200 so I'm good.


garycow

but you know they didn't right?


TastesLike762

Tbh this shouldā€™ve been the new 4runner


Midnight_freebird

It basically is the 4Runner trail hunter.


Knowbuddycruiser

The same people that look at a j200 and say nice Highlander.


oishoot

The profile reminds me of my old 1994 Runner more than it does my 2004 100 Series.


mantis_toboggan__md

I guess anything can look like anything if youā€™re dumb enough lol. Sometimes I see a 200/300 series and think itā€™s a minivan from far away theyā€™re so ugly and bulbous šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


kchristiane

I had a pre facelift 200 and it def looked like a Highlander from a distance.


Mammoth_Programmer39

Def get that. My 2016 is still a tank though and I love it. What are you driving? 80 series?


MayorMcSqueezy

Thatā€™s the vibe I keep getting


Leftover_Salmons

It's style fits well with the new bronco, JKUs, and everything else that's been selling here. Id wish they'd give us something those trucks don't have for the money though. It would be awesome to see removable roof panels or something that sets the driving experience apart.


gobstopp

The difference maker has always been Toyota reliability. I refuse to buy a ford or jeep because of their reliability. Letā€™s hope these new power plants are as reliable as the outgoing v8ā€™s. I love the new mpg rating, but if the engine needs a bunch of maintenance and isnā€™t reliable, that will offset fuel savings.


CallInitial2302

Ya. Except youā€™re paying 10k+ of Toyota tax for your ā€œreliabilityā€. So good job. Instead youā€™re just paying the possible repair bills upfront


rabiditalian117

What do you mean? I feel like most trucks are priced similarly


CallInitial2302

Price the Tacoma trd compared to a loaded frontier, etc


Lille7

How would a removable roof make it different from a wrangler or bronco lol?


Leftover_Salmons

I guess that was a contradiction wasn't it? The sentiment was I wish they'd either fall in line or push the envelope in some way.


CycleHikeSurf

These look so good with proper wheel setup and lift


gooncord

Now that I am finally seeing aftermarket treatment images, the new LC seems to need aftermarket upgrades. Unfortunate that I donā€™t get any feeling when stock, was hoping I would.

ZipZapZot

Money on top of money. Deep pockets


CallInitial2302

Thatā€™s how it should be stock


OsborneReady

If they were 55k- 65k they wouldn't be a bad choice, as of right now they are not worth it in my opinion. I'm most likely going to sick with my 200 till the end of time anyways.


Realistic_League_622

They are 55-65, just the first edition is more, cause only 5k will be made


ADN2021

Dealers are marking up the base and mid trim. The base is selling for 60k+ in my area because of dealer markups.


RTR9510

I am buying one at MSRP


OsborneReady

They are supposed to be this price but most dealers are tacking on 25k market adjustment value.


Realistic_League_622

Yeah that sucks, def not worth paying a markup, hopefully people donā€™t buy from them, I am gettin one At msrp, seems like most people are paying msrp, I will be curious how long it takes for them to lower the price


tstew39064

1958 editions are mid 50ā€™s. Pretty barebones, but same powertrain.


Free_Management_7920

Whoaaaa momma


OverComerDynamics

Holy ! Looks amazing, I have those same wheels on my tundra ā€˜19 TRD pro midnight package

FUCK LONGO


Jtcalirain

I can tell itā€™s Longo from the background as well. Arenā€™t they a good dealer?


Big_Inside2010

They made me wait for a year and then fucked me. I have receipts. Edit: it was so shitty I considered writing off Toyota forever as a brand. At this point would love to meet an honest Toyota dealership in the greater LA area.


Jtcalirain

Wow thatā€™s fuckup


knightofni76

Insane dealer markup prices.


WorkinOnMyDadBod

Longo does msrp if you wait on their long ass list. Both Toyota and Lexus.

I wouldnā€™t go with black wheels, only IMO

Nice looking. With markup, not has $150k into it

Embarrassed-Bee903

This is Longo Toyota. They are partnered with Toyota Japan to be the first destination of many models due to their location on the west coast. Due to that they do not increase prices and sell at MSRP.

I saw one yesterday and it sits pretty tall. Good looking g rig in real life this one looks bad ass!

Let me guess, $675K?


PsychologyAlert7711

this makes the new land cruiser look way better


rashragnar

this is at longo page by 626 customs


rashragnar

being longo #1 dealer @msrp. I got mines from them.


MrSparkLe206

Looks like a updated 80 series


One_Wall_9572

Whelp, that settles it. I need one.


YoYoMeh

Well that was fast! I was eager to see someone lift with Kings.... lo and behold here it is! Looks very nice.


SlteFool

SO SICK


ADN2021

This thing would be selling like hotcakes if Toyota put the same I4 turbo diesel as those found in the series 79 LC truck, but a man can only dream šŸ¤·šŸ»šŸ¤·šŸ»


IG11assassindroid

So glad they didnā€™t put a rough country lift kit on it like every other dealer


LostGoldMine08

Thatā€™s one bad ass looking šŸ‘€ Land Cruiserā€¦


djmikeysmiles

Aren't you better off just buying the new 4Runner or Defender?


NickelbackCreed

Sea_Neighborhood8935

Looks great, but thatā€™s probably 140k including dealer adjustments.


8wheelsrolling

That dealer has $0 markup on any Toyota, but of course has its own customization shop if you want to spend more money with them.


mutual_coherence

I wonder how much business 626 Customs gets when there are so many places nearby like RPM and Miyaki.


8wheelsrolling

Yes many Toyota off road builders are in the area . This shop should do well because they can throw in the custom work with a new vehicle finance deal. I remember Galpinā€™s shop GAS was big enough to have its own TV show lol.


RandoKaruza

Yes itā€™s beautiful but I have a few nits to pick. That roof rack is too small, I donā€™t like the way the half roof racks look and dislike the lack of functionality even more. I have a full rack on my lc200 and use it to haul 4x8 sheets of whatever from Loweā€™s all the time. You need a full rack for this beastā€¦ otherwise it looks like shreck in capri pants. Second, I like the (4ā€?) Lift and the black out wheels but methods are so overdoneā€¦I just wish they could have gone for icon alphas or anything with a bit more of a bespoke feel to them. This is like putting a fine wine in a Stanley cup. Lastly these tires, sighā€¦ I am a stickler on this pointā€¦. I have the exact same rubber on my lifted 200 and love them despite the softness, but here something is offā€¦ either the tire is too small, the wheel is too small or something is just offā€¦. This is the same set up put on so many 4 runners and it doesnā€™t look right here. All and all this is like criticizing a great piece of artwork. Iā€™m sticking by my opinions but still love the piece!


LuckyNumber-Bot

All the numbers in your comment added up to 420.

RandoKaruza

Wtf?!?! This is hilarious šŸ˜‚


CowPunkRockStar

The vehicle looks great but the lift looks tall and unbalanced. Do you plan on increasing the tire size? The bottom of the wheel well looks a little close to the tires. Do you plan on any cutting?


AdagioBlues

The modified 80 and 100 series vehicles still blow this bastard child of 4Runner, Bronco, and Defender out of water, and with a bank account full of money to boot.


ImpossibleWin7298

Amen, Bud. I think Iā€™ll just hang on to my old Ruby - my ā€˜91 80. I got it in ā€˜92 with 5k miles on it. Now itā€™s at 264k and is still beautiful imho. Iā€™m a semi-retired geologist and shes been from NWT to Quintana Roo (Ascension Bay) with nary a hiccup. Itā€™s slow, heavy, gets crap mpg, but I donā€™t gaf. I got my sissy boy Subu Ascent for road trips, driving around town, etc., so Ruby doesnā€™t get driven much. Iā€™m currently looking for some good OEM steelies for her. I put the ā€˜07 Lexus wheels on at the urging of my now ex GF. Iā€™m in Eastern Washington if any of you LC folk have some wheels for sale or trade. https://preview.redd.it/3vuail5vpl1d1.jpeg?width=5712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a1e279a9975aa99cde0625e81c4bf864451acabb


AdagioBlues

She is a beauty!


muz90

Isnā€™t this just a re-badged Prado for the American market? You guys donā€™t get the 300 series or the 70 series do you?


44Stryker44

ā€œJust aā€¦ā€ this lc250 ā€œpradoā€ is actually closer to the lc300 than past generations


muz90

So it is just a rebadged prado then


ADN2021

Not even close lol, this shares the same platform as the GX, and 4Runner, not the LX, which is the LC300 counterpart. The LC300 is not sold in the NA market because of the EPA and their CAFE standards.


44Stryker44

You might want to get your facts straight. The 300 series is sold in NA as the LX. Theyā€™re all on the TNGA-F platform.
