Pretty cool if you ask me. But then again, I felt that way the first time I laid eyes on it in an auto mag.

I thought the same thing as well when I first saw it. My son will be the proud owner of a 2007 FJ Cruiser when he becomes of driving age in 12 years - ha!

Wow! I think this is the first auto writer THAT GETS IT:

"The FJ Cruiser stands in contrast to that strategy. It's a sign of Toyota's confidence that it created a vehicle that sacrifices practicality for the sake of an emotional design.

The FJ's off-road prowess will also help it in the future collector market, said Hagerty. Car collectors don't go for poseurs. A vehicle that really delivers on its promise -- whether that's rock-crawling or tire-shredding -- will always be worth more."

Well, I already started my collection!

Only if I could afford one more....one to be parked and one to drive.

Too funny! The first 3 are the cars that my wife and I really want. We got the FJ! I think it would be hilarious to get a tan mini w/ a white roof to match the FJ for our daily driver. And the Lotus is my dream car!

Probably the later year FJ's will be worth more. Us early guys have body rip issues and God knows what else. Only time will tell.

Not sure I can take the poll seriously. They also listed the Scion xB, Chrysler 300, and the Smart ForTwo. I am sure they are all great cars, but Collectors????
