If you like the Lexus GX470 for a bargain price....get the Toyota Prado. Its the same car and in my opinion far better looking than the Lexus variant.

Though not sure if the Prado is available in North America.

like many mentioned - the stance, front and rear, especially with widened 214s (spacers) rolling slowly toward you. Too bad I rarely get to see it for myself.

here's the stance from the back:

I feel dizzy just sitting in one, but once you get moving, you would swear the 4 wheels were made from extra padded and extra soft marshmallows.
