#4 of 10948 4 cyl highlander by yachtie Apr 23, 2000 (3:58 am)
Does anyone know which 4 cyl engine Toyota will use in the Highlander. Will it be from the Camry or somewhere else? Also anticipated hp.
#5 of 10948 NY Autoshow..Toyota Highlander by bphd Apr 24, 2000 (4:53 pm)
I went to the NYC autoshow on Saturday and saw the Highlander up close. IT was very impressive. There is no third seat but there was substantial room in the cargo area that could easily fit lots of stuff. They claim that the fully loaded SUV will be substantially less than a fully loaded 4runner. Does anyone know what the cost of a fully loaded 4runner is? Anyway, I was very impressed. It had a much more refined and sophisticated look than the new escape and tribute, while still looking small enough and agile. I can't wait to see how this unfolds... B
#6 of 10948 bphd, 4runner prices run from 39-41 by cytoman Apr 25, 2000 (1:38 am)
thousand for the limited. I too am excited about the Highlander. I just wish it had a third seat but who knows, maybe in a year or two a third seat would be an option. The Acura MDX seems to be a good deal for that option. Did any of the people in the autoshow say what the horsepower of the optional 4cyl. would be?
#7 of 10948 Really that much by bphd Apr 26, 2000 (10:48 pm)
Cytoman, I just checked edmunds and it ranged from 32K-invoice to 35 MSRP... Are you talking canadian$$$? Anyway, if Toyota's pricing model is going to w`ork, they need to be somewhere between the RAV4 and the 4runner...I would think that it would come in fully loaded at about 30-32K... any thoughts?

#8 of 10948 Seems logical to me by porknbeans Apr 27, 2000 (11:57 am)
This seems like an absolutely reasonable response to me. I would even go so far as to say that if the pricing falls like you just described I'll be knocking on the door of the dealer when they roll them off of the delivery truck. But with manufacturers setting sales records all over the place there is no incentive for them to keep the prices in the 30-32K area. Unfortunately I would have a tendency to believe that they are going to be more 35K.
#9 of 10948 Pricing Discussion by bphd Apr 27, 2000 (1:17 pm)
Beanyman, I would agree, in the first year folks will probably paying MSRP plus something. Remember what happened witht he VW Beetle.... I am currently leasing a Solara which will be due back to the dealer by 2002. I am hoping I can leverage that fact for a reasonable priced Highlander. If not, I would have to look pretty hard at the Escape, which fully loaded, would run around 25K. Also, I am a bit leary of buying any car in its first year of manufacturing... Finally, while at the car show, I got a single page document on the Highlander. It has a form to send back in to let the folks at Toyota know that I am interested. Hopefully, I will get some more info in the upcoming months. B
#10 of 10948 Let me know what you hear by porknbeans Apr 28, 2000 (11:27 am)
I was unable to get to NY (living in the Midwest) but would be interested to hear what Toyota has to say about the vehicle. There are only a couple of vehicles that I wouldn't be afraid of buying on their first year of production and Toyota is one of them. They seem to have the production nightmares that plague some other manufacturers solved. I called the 1 800 number for Toyota three times asking if I could get on the mailing list for the Highlander. I finally got the last operator I talked to, to write down my name and address but don't know if it will go any further.
#11 of 10948 Address for Highlander Mailing List by bphd Apr 28, 2000 (1:27 pm)
Porkster, I have the address for the Highlander SIG at home. I will post it later on this afternoon. In addition, I can e-mail you the scanned in one page brochure if you want. Let me know, Brian bphdyahoo.com
#12 of 10948 Some more info on the Highlander by cytoman Apr 30, 2000 (8:42 pm)
is now available. I just saw my dealer today and he handed me some one page flyer. The High is a five seater. It would be available in FWD and AWD in both 2.4l 4-cyl and 3.0l V6. I just wonder what the ground clearance and HP is on this thing.
#13 of 10948 Correction by cytoman May 01, 2000 (5:19 am)
HP on the 2.4L 4-cyl?
