El Grande

No USB audio input on the Grande..ahhh WTF ?? The site needs lots of work still by the looks. Pictures of the old model, broken links... It doesn't look ready. ...And old brochures and incomplete specs

Toyota website updated with 2011 model - check it out. http://www.toyota.com.au/kluger?WT.ac=GNKlugerHOME

Don't you just love dealers?! My one still hasn't called back with details or a price (over week and half!). Went to a fleet leasing company instead who got a firm price within an hour!!

Out of interest what is the new car costing you all up?

how cheap are they? I got Bridgestone OEM tyres for $400 each all up from K Mart a couple of weeks ago... ok ,my local tyre dealer quoted $500 ea for the bridgestones , havent got a kmart close to me but will go for a drive to save 100 X4 Pays to ring a few places. I rang 6 tyre retailers and prices ranged from $580 (Bridgestone store) to $400! The Kmart was part of my local Shell servo

My dealer told me the 8th is the wholesale date, and they'll have it a few days after that. I hate waiting. I'm so impatient. Hey PhilG and Pugsly - what colours did you order? I'm looking at a new one in Dark Furnace (a new colour for Kluger but available on the Prado).

The sad thing is that in the States a Grande AWD equivalent (with sat nav, towbar, DVD) costs around $43k retail at the moment! :(

Hi Where is your dealer located? I know the dates can't be state specific, but was curious about urs. Unfortunately the dealers in the ACT are clueless. I've rung 2 in recent weeks (all owned by the same crowd) - one has not returned my calls; the other knew absolutely nothing at all (I had to tell them what was happening!!) At least I have this site to let me know the details!

When's the delivery date? Here's another US review - http://www.c****ssion.com/car-news/2011-toyota-highlander.html

maybe a rock had been throw up by the truck, looped in an arc (rather than direct, straightline impact) and then hit the moonroof? Good to hear you're ok...

Pugsly - I notice you say in your profile that you have a 2010 Facelift KX-S on order. Did you put an order with a dealer sight unseen?! Did they quote you a price or features?

Guy from Toyota Australia told me that "all information relation to this facelift is under embargo and will not be available until after October 2010". Guess we'll know next month...no idea on when deliveries will start though.

I'm with you. The new grille/headlight combination looks like the face of some crazy robot from a Manga cartoon. Has anyone made any inquiries about getting the seat modified? Good point - it might be worth looking into whether Toyota can retrofit the new split fold seat. Given that the interior doesn't seem to have changed it should use the same seat mounts etc..? The Russian media pack for the Highlander - http://highlander.toyota.ru/media/Highlander.pdf - shows a split 3rd row for the top of the range model, USB plug in the lower centre console (near the heated seat switch), hard drive in sound system, rear fog light, and wait for it...slightly different cup holders in the front!! Also, some different colours too...

really?! - change the grille and lights and that's a "new model"?! it looks EXACTLY like my current one inside...disappointing. Where's the memory seat for the driver? new trim to replace the plastic 'wood'? new wheel designs?
