I knew I should have splurged for the short shifter! In any case, I love my new 2008 six speed manual FJ! It shifts smoothly and the clutch reminds me of a German made sports car clutch. It's "un"!

Hi, little naive here. Bought a 4x4 manuel FJ from private seller, was such a steal, I had to have it even though I hadn't driven a stick in about 14 years and barely then. I got it down pat but I have no idea what a "short shifter" is? School me.

2007 FJ with 90k miles by takafoomi1

Guys i have a question. A local dealership, Toyota dealer, has a yellow 6-speed 2007 FJ Cruiser with 90k miles. Apparently someone used it for commuting. Apparently I can get it for about $15,500 w/o tax and tags. The question is, should I? It's a ton of mileage in a short period of time. They tell me they've gone over it with a fine tooth comb, new tires, fluids, and so forth. It's physically clean.
 
I have owned/own other toyotas - my 91 MR2 Turbo has 112k miles and it's much older. Whats the risk in getting something so used up in the prime of its life? Does anyone else have a high mileage FJ?
 
Thanks!

That sounds like a decent price considering the miles. You may want to browse through Toyota FJ Cruiser Prices Paid and Buying Experience to get an idea of what others have been paying recently. I'll just note that the original owner was apparently concerned enough about the high miles on a two year old vehicle to trade it in.
