4runner TRD Pro

What to expect when ordering?

I'm going to a dealership to try to order one today. This might sound like a noob question, but what kind of downpayment do they require when doing a custom order?

It's not really a custom order. It is just a package that is offered. No different than a standard trail or Limited as far as ordering. As far as down payment, it's just like any other car. Put down as much as you want to or whatever is required by your particular lender.
 
my local dealership JUST did call me that their first TRDP they sold is coming back in today with 2400 miles.

didn't ask the color or why the original owner was jumping ship so quickly

dealership is Joe Machens in Columbia MO 573-445-4450
 
Here it is! I picked it up yesterday evening and drove it off the lot with 3 miles on it.
Don't hate on the illegal parking, this is where I found it parked when I arrived at the dealer to pick it up. Which means I guess I was a criminal as soon as I took possession of the keys? This thing is already getting me in trouble!

It was pretty entertaining to see the crowd of sales guys around the TRDP the entire time. Even more entertaining was the customer who was telling another salesmen, right in front of me no less, that he would pay more for it than I had and could pay cash on the spot if they would sell it to him right then and there.

I will more than likely start up a build thread here in the coming weeks with more photos and plans. I can't wait to get it in the dirt and to start mod'ing this beast! For the record, mine came with the trimmed plastic at the front side of the front wheel wells.

Well that does it. I'm movin' to Arizona.

Guy standin' there next to his SUV in a Tee-shirt - smack-dab in the middle of winter.

LOL! The winters are amazing here. You just have to put up with the 110F summer. The pic was taken at about 5pm and the temp was a very comfortable 67F.

Congrats! Love the "teq" shirt btw (although I hate that they call it that...)
 
Congrats Cypher. Great looing 4Runner of course. I guess I got one of the really early ones as I can't find any signs of fender trimming on mine. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place.
Looking forward to your build.
 
I installed my Spidertrax Wheel spacers today. I'm really happy with how it looks and it drives and handles just like it did before the install. Unfortunately there is a bit of tire rubbing at full lock. I trimmed the corners of the front bumper and it helped, but I need to trim it a little bit more to eliminate the rubbing.

Looking good man. What kind of light set up are you running there?
 
This is my first post and if I never post again I at least wanted to thank the forum for all of the info that helped me go into a dealership prepared. I stumbled across an inferno not expecting any to be left (if the dealer was being honest, it was the only one left in any color on the eastern seaboard), traded in my beloved STI and walked out the door slightly under MSRP. I love my new truck and can't wait to get it off the pavement! For anyone on active duty, don't let a salesman tell you that the $1000 Toyota rebate doesn't apply to TRD Pros. I was able to get that and the low interest rate I wanted, good luck to everyone else out there trying to find one.

whoa! i just traded in my 08 STi last week on my white TRD pro..i searched for in stock and only found white/black at Lustine, and I do remember there was only one Orange TRDP shown within MD/VA/DE/NC so they may have been telling the truth. grats!
 
Been reading the forum for several months now. Ordered inferno trdp in early Dec. Dealer told me yesterday that build now started. Probably avail early April. BTW, paying slightly over Mrsp.
