probably because I like the original Toyota FJ's ........

I'm with you...my dad had one of these when I was a little one and I can't help but feel nostalgic...

My Dad's had a chevy V-6 in it so we called it a "Chevota" lol.

I think the correct name is Toyolet. :-]

I really hope Ford introduces that Bronco. Sometimes I feel it could be more successful than the 'new' Mustang.

The market is now so saturated with 3 inch ground clearance SUV's ......

[marximus]

dont like it...
what is with all the new cars becoming boxier? i like the VX because of its curves...

[Newports]

boxy is roomier, kinda like the H2, Element, Scion, and since its an SUV, aerodynamics dont play such a big role in my opinion, the only thing about the bronco that would kill it is if they put a V6 in it, a truck like that deserves a small block V8, and lets not compare the Vx to any of these concepts as it is a way better vehicle and is yet a one of a kind...

kinda funny how alot of u called it ugly just cause its out of the ordinary.

My FJ was just about that blue(no shine) Loved my old one, but I don't beleive they could sell me the new one. It is all about the curves, isn't it?

[rocket man]

That's a pretty bad design I had a 69 FJ40 that I owned from 1972 to 1989. It became my project car..and I loved her...this design, this retro stuff is a fad...you'll see...why not put on fender skirts, lake pipes, mud flaps and a coon tail on the antenna while your at it. A couple of bobble heads on the rear window tray would be cool too. There are classic car designs out there but this will never EVER be one them

My vote for top 5 designs (not necessarily in order)

1956 Gull Wing MB
1969 Camaro
1962 Jaguar XKE
1988 Lamborghini Countash
H1

honerable mention to:

The stingray
Early Bronco
GT 40

My list list for Forgettable car designs is vast...but some are:
early Studebaker
late Studebaker
Avanti
Element
VW bus
Aztec
Edsel
H2
and this new FJ Toy

[Dallas4u]

Hey... I actually LIKE the Avanti design!!!

[Numba1goalie]

Looks like they designed it using lego's

[BritVX]

Seeing as this thread has resurfaced anyone else think the Bronco concept looks suspiciosly like a Landrover Defender or the new Discovery? I wonder if this has anything to do with Ford owning the lot?

I think they are calling it ugly because of the ugliness, not the unordinariness. People here LOVE vehicles out of the ordinary... that's why we're even talking about it.

[pbkid]

i think its awesome. looks like it would romp some ground off road. i would buy it, but knowing toyota it will probably cost like 40k. =)

[VehiGAZ]

Base price is supposed to be under $20k, actually. Toyota doesn't sell anything for $40k (but Lexus will be happy to oblige... ;-)

I like it, but I'm AMAZED that so many VXers are hating it - it's a cool-looking, two-door, off-road-capable sport-ute. There's only one other Vehi-cle you can say the same about...

[WyrreJ]

It is just so ... square ... which is really the anithesis of vx design.
