Default 2007 Toyota FJ

http://www.familycar.com/RoadTests/ToyotaFJ/Photos.htm

It is quite interesting on the fact that toyota.com didn't even have those pictures yet and they are posting it since yesterday.

I think it is as ugly as the Honda Element, but the difference is this can go deep into the montain to hide its ugly ass

So, is this what happened after the Honda Element got drunk and had an one night stand with the Aztek near a nuclear power plant?

I like it, it looks great, although I hate retro cars, this one looks really good, I think they nailed the styling bringin the old FJ to modern ques...and I'm sure it will be one hell of an off roader.

I like. More for the spirit of it than the actual styling.

Yeah, that was a concept car with no interior, this is a pre-production model ready for 2007 model year.

This is going to be one of those love-it-or-hate-it designs.

I like the spirit in which it was intended, but I think they kind of lost it a bit along the way.

IIRC, the concept was more appealing to me.

Yeah definitely. I think the looks might be a joke, but the Off-Road capabilities of this truck will be top notch!

I think it looks like crap,although these horrible look may be the guarantee for some great off-road performance.

I think they don't really need the rear quater doors section......just chop the entire mid section out and u have the perfect FJ.

Looks good to me, I'm sure black would look real nice.

I really wonder how this truck feels to drive..
