Yeah a bit on the ugly side. The dealer I bought mine off confimed that there will be a sports version of the Hilux coming out in the near future. Higher powered engine etc etc

smithyworld it sound like your dealer may have been talking about the TRD model with the supercharged V6

pretty cool looking but I dont like the canopy. You would think that they would jazz up a V6 for a sports model though, not the diesel.

I reckon that everyone on the street that sees it would piss themselves laughing, I don't think I've seen anything that ugly since they brought out the Musso dual cab!! YUUCCK!!

Nah! I've had another look and still thinks it looks like crap!! they need to take a look at something like what Smithyworld has done to his- thats a very nice truck. But bear in mind we are talking about the POMS here with their take on a Hilux. Betcha its a 2 wheel drive!!!

Yep... not what I would want... don't think that canopy would have much room in it...and the front bat would be the first thing to go ..to be replaced by a steel winch bar,.. afer that it probably wouldn't look that different..cosmetics can really make a difference to a cars appeal eh....Cheers TOMUCH.

Looks to me just like a standard Vigo with the sloping canopy, and twin exhausts..

I dont like it much either..

You could always have a sports model for normal daily driving and a modded up standard Hilux for outback touring :) best of both words hey 8-)

It looks between a gangsters car (just ran over something with the splash of red up the side) and a funeral cart. How would the ride be with those low profiles and rear leaf springs? Ruff as . . .
