    I love those things. I would still take a four door Jeep over that but the FJ is definitely nice. I bought this car below Wednesday as well! AWD is where its at. Can't wait to test it in the snow!

    I drove a Forester for a few years and loved it, great car to drive - very comfortable.

    I valet cars for a living and have found that out of all the cars on the midrange level, the Impreza kills the Mazda, Honda, and Toyota. I won't even list any domestic cars because they're shit except for Fords. Ford has made a run like no other lately however I need the AWD for snowboarding in the winter. So far, I love this car, my wife and I drove up to Mt. Laguna on Sunrise Hwy last night and watched the Perseids Meteor Shower through the sunroof with the seat heaters on. Pretty epic. If I had the FJ the OP has, I'd taken the backtrail to the top of the mountain and watched from there.

    About the replies I expected. Just a little background. November will be my 25th wedding anniversary. I bought this car for my wife (hence silver,silver anniversary). Thats what she wanted, i could afford it (barely), so that is what she got.
    In my opinion it is butt ugly. I already tried to get her to paint the top silver.

    For the people who said rough ride or some of those other cars are better. Well not that Subaru. I did a lot of research and the FJ holds up real well. It has three problems. Bad gas mileage, Blinds spots, and an anti braking system not suited for a car this size.

    She likes it and that is all that matters to me. I did wonder how many people thought it was butt ugly though.

    It's not a bad vehicle at all. From what I have heard the blind spots are the worst part. And people in the back seats can't see a thing. Regardless, I would hope that Toyota took enough pride in the FJ series to ensure that this model holds up as well as the previous generations. I drive an FJ80 and am hard pressed to think of another sport utility that I would take in trade.
