New FJ cruiser anyone?

DeezSi06 · 07-10-2006, 10:17 PM

Yea, so my Si is almost paid off(about 6-9months left of payments)
and Im thinking of getting a SUV
Ii like the look of the new Fj cruiser ALOT
Most people i show it to, or whatever say its ugly...
Thats prolly why i like it.
Anyone here have one, or have any comments about them?

Sorta Looks like a toyota Hummer Or the older Mercedes G wagon-Gone toyota to me..

i've driven it a few tiimes at my job. Its a pretty neat car, its like a new jeep and toyota land cruiser combined. Honestly i'm not too crazy about it, but its not horrible looking.

I LOVE this thing! I want one in Black Cherry. I like to go to Toyotas site and build 'em.

Its pretty OK. Wow your almost done paying off your car? Thats quick.

***Izzy*** · 07-10-2006, 10:31 PM

I thought they looked good, until I kept seeing one. I will admit that the Black Cherry looks friggin' sweet as a color. It'd look awesome on an RSX-S. :drool:

Don't get it! The gas milage sucks and there's about 10 or more for sale on ebay every day.

DeezSi06 · 07-10-2006, 10:31 PM

yea. i only owed 7k on my si when i got it(after trade in equity, and down payment)

And ive made alot of double and triple payments already

DeezSi06 · 07-10-2006, 10:35 PM

I liked the old ones.
I live in MA and the roads are horrible so id
use it as a daily driver(unless going on a long trip)
and keep my Si as a "track/summer/alot of miles destionation car

I like the black and the blue one(havent seen the red in person)
black on chrome=sexy

I second that. I like the Yellow color too. It's a pretty kewl SUV. I'd buy one over a Hummer....(yuk)

I saw one on a rainy day. I had to do a double take as I saw THREE wipers swing up on the windshield. They seem pretty awesome for the type of market they are going for. I'm not a fan of the suicide door design though... but then again I'm a hypocrite cause I love the RX-8's styling, just not the price.

**Silver8th** · 07-10-2006, 10:53 PM

Toyota SUV's and Honda Civic's are my favorite rides.

It has a love it or hate it look to it, personally i like it, maybe thats because its a toyota, haha.

SiC17 · 07-10-2006, 11:27 PM

I've heard rumors that they're kind of in the same boat as civics these days in regards to supply vs. demand. Apparently there's a wait on the FJ Cruiser.... at least, that's what I've heard. Personally, I don't care for them much.

Hmm its possible.
I havent seen a single one on the road yet.
However my local dealer had to of had atleast 12-15 of them just sitting on the lot.
I stopped in to grab a book.
Got harassed by a few salesmen.
Asked if i wanted to drive any of them.
i passed on it.
Didnt wanna waste the salesmens time

SiC17 · 07-11-2006, 12:11 AM

I've seen a couple around downtown Austin, but that's about the extent of my interaction/interest with them. I could be wrong about the wait list.

**atruhondagrl** · 07-11-2006, 12:14 AM

there's a bunch out here. I see FJ cruisers more often than I see Sis.

FigiSi06 · 07-11-2006, 12:14 AM

They are nice but small on the inside

06CivEXJon · 07-11-2006, 12:29 AM

Get a Nissan Xterra 2006-07 those are pimp too.

***Izzy*** · 07-11-2006, 12:32 AM

Does anyone else here think that the FG Cruiser looks like a Mini had "piihb" sex with an H3 and gave birth to that?

I like it for the FG, in name only.

And, again, Cherry Black. I dunno...the more I see them, the ugly I think they tend to look.
