FJ made it's debut here in Japan last year (The original here in Japan was called the Land Cruiser but this new model is called "Fun Cruiser"
.
It's considered a novelty but not respected as an off road vehicle like the 4Runner or Surf (It's priced here with the Rav 4, it's considered equal). It's all look and will fall apart against the first curb it hits.
The reaction was so terrible here, they're not considering even selling them here
. But the Japanese are betting a bunch of suckers in the US and Canada will gobble it up.
Even most Japanese I talk to know and revere the H1, H2, and now hot item H3. The sentiment is everything else is benchmarked against the Hummer Brand.
FJ is a threat....NOT
And don't joke about that crap against Hummers. It's not even funny.
Good Luck!
