Hi guys. Just wanted your opinions on this 4runner. It is in good condition and has kinda low miles.

https://lasvegas.craigslist.org/cto/d/2006-toyota-4runner-125k/6766658945.html

I know it's gold and 2wd. The 2wd doesn't bother me since I don't go offroad but what do you guys think about the color? It doesn't bother me but I don't see any that are lifted with nice wheels. I've only seen stock ones.

Well the color is a personal preference, if you don't mind it and or like it then that's all that matters, I can tell you that in the ad the color looks more silvery than it will in person, so you need to go and look at it, I looked at a gold one and I like my Titanium better but didn't I mind the gold color.

The price is very good if it truely only has 125,000 miles on it, so it's either a very good deal or there's issues not mentioned, you need to do your own due diligence to see it it is as advertised or worth the price, e.g. check the value with KBB and any other auto value websites, check the vin on Toyota Owners website, CarFax, etc. to see if the mileage is correct, service history, etc., etc., if it only has a few issues it still maybe worth the price and you can put a little money and work into it to make it 100%.

Well, the one thing I'd wonder about is why they're saying it's a 2006 when it clearly has an 03-05 body style.

It could be a simple typo, if you look at the info on the right in the ad it does say it's a 2005.

Could be a fake add. The other mistake is on the side it's listed as- drive: fwd. You could try to respond using the Craigslist email if you are still interested and the number comes back as something your not confident in calling. I think you log into Craigslist and then email from your account there so they have to email you back through Craigslist. The scammers try to get you number or email address, you can usually tell their adds are phoney because they put a long title and have confused details.

That said, it looks sharp except the carpets are not clean as described.

2003-2005 had non-projector headlights, rectangular fog lights, and non-LED tail lights.

As 4RunnerIdiot said, this isn't a 2006.

*Edited. I completely screwed that up. No idea what I was thinking. It was late, my contact lenses were bugging me.

2003-2005 T4Rs Do not have round fog lights nor LED tail lights, 2006 and onwards however do have round fog lights and LED tail lights.

Edit: Not sure why the led tail lights is posting as a link, I didn't post it as a link, crap it even did it in this edit as well, WTF!!!
