Run the VIN through Toyota's owner sub-site to see what the original badging was and repair history, if available. If you find nothing, you've only wasted a few minutes of your time.

If its in Cali, 9k is a fair price considering its a clean 1 owner car. Assuming its gotten all the work done over its life, you should have a relatively trouble free time with it.

The only determining factor (for me) between the LC100 and the 4runner is size. The LC is a lot larger, and the 4runner is already a great size with plenty of interior space. If you tow or need a 3rd row, then the LC is better.

The 4runner and the LC100 are also 2 different era's despite being close in age. The 4runner feels a lot older, since the LC100 was considered to be luxury it holds up way better by modern standards.

Ok front ends… if the 3rd gen hasn’t had its front end gone through yet, you had better plan and budget for the same work on it you are trying to avoid with your Lc.

I know, I looked at dozens of them in person and hundreds more online during my search.

OP, better the devil you know.... you'll be better served by putting money into the Land Cruiser.
I live in Nashville. lmfao. you totally could have found one in that condition for 4500 two years ago.
