Hi Matt, I just bought a kx-r crystal pearl colour. The main reason was to carry a lot of gear that wouldnt fit into my old 95 suby lib wag and the suby as getting a bit long in the tooth ( and I didnt want a gutless van).This is the first new car and first Toyota i've owned (im 40) and yes, I was paid out no end and called a soccer mum( i dont even have kids), but now that my friends have seen the car in flesh, they think it's pretty cool cos its muscular and tuff looking! Gotta say I luuuvv the V6 too. All the reviews I read were very good except for tyre wear and when I took one for a test drive I was sold straight away. Fuel economy is great (between 9.8-11.3 so far).
