Ah, agreed. Over those mainstream German brands, I'd so rather have a Maserati, Alfa, or Lexus, just for that bit of left-field charm. I guess the LFA wouldn't be suitable for an escapade into the outback, at least not without lifting it. The IS though, is a mighty find and handsome choice.

They made a facelift quite recently, and I think it's gotten even more handsome since. Not sure if this means much to you, since you've already had plenty of experience with old Lexuses, but their infotainment system isn't up to par, not even with cheaper Toyotas. Not a dealbreaker, but something to keep in mind if you're springing up for one 🙃

The infotainment thing means nothing to me. I use Spotify through Bluetooth off my phone anyway. I drove an IS350 only a month or so ago and really liked it. It's not the right time for me to buy one though, besides, I'm happy with with my LC.

Good to know, mate. Surely someday would be the perfect time to expand the garage, but with the uncertainties going around now, it's certainly best to wait around a bit longer. For now, the LC is more than enough, though it'll be even cooler once those off-roady parts arrive.

I know right? Not the time to be too flamboyant.

No word on my parts yet... Melbourne is in lockdown and that's where ARB manufacturing is so...Yeah, I could be waiting.

Not the time to be too flamboyant.

Well said! Keep us updated until those parts arrive. I can't wait to see your Mad-Max'd Land Cruiser tear across the Outback!

Hmm, well that ones a 70 series..You know I have a 200 series right? I wish I had both though. I'd need hive to hit $1000fkr that to happen though.

Lol, I know. I can't find a good GIF of the new ones, though. I do love those old Land Cruisers, but for some reason, these vintage ones are deemed collectable. Thus, they're preposterously expensive!
