It supposed to have more features than a similar priced Land cruiser....Personally I think it's a Rip-off!!!

For that money, I'd rather buy <Nissan fanboy comment>

In my case, I'd buy the Nissan Armada, or if I can squeeze it in, the Qx56.

The 200k LC lacks leather, navigation etc. which the Prado has.

Price still isn't justified though.

Well, true. Leather becomes a goddamn oven here, esp. if the car is black.

Well people keep buying here no matter how overpriced cars get... Dealers dont find a problem or a hassle in overpricing their cars... What about dyna trade, known to sell toyotas for cheaper... I even heard they once sold a batch of 'MANUAL' FJ cruisers...

My brother has a top of the range 3M tint, with warranty...and has a black Murano with beige leather seats. Argh. I've got 3M tints too, but I have black suede interior in a silver body, so it's not that bad.
