SEMA Preview: Toyota to Unveil 2009 Corolla, HD Tundra and FJ Cruiser Convertible
The 2007 SEMA Show in Las Vegas is not for another three and a half months, but Toyota is getting its ducks in a row preparing for what promises to be a big week in Sin City for the Japanese automaker. It's unveiling not one, not two, but three vehicles at SEMA, including the all-new 2009 Corolla. The current Corolla has been around the block a few more times than Toyota had planned, but still remains a popular vehicle for the company. The new model will include the familiar sedan body type, but also mark the return of a coupe/hatchback. We'll no doubt see a TRD version customized to the nines at SEMA, as well. If the fates are on our side, perhaps they'll show something rear-wheel drive (fingers crossed).

Bimmermike, this new FJ is a great suv but no where close to the off road potential the original FJ had! Yes it was a great! Take it from an off road nut like me it doesn't come close! It is just a 4-runner drive train with different sheet metal.The creature comforts are obiously way better on the new fj and the engine and tranny are way better too on the new one.

I love the FJ except that it is just a little too high to clear the garage door at my condo in the East. The roof rack is a bit exagerated. My wife hates the whole look. I wish Toyota would keep the overall height to about 70 inches including a more conventional roof rack. The roof rack should always be a stand-alone option in any event. The spare tire should be in a proper wheel well inside the vehicle. My wife and I both drive vehicles with automatic transmission only but Toyota provides a different AWD system for FJ Cruisers with automatic transmission than the AWD system on the FJ with manual transmission. I believe the AWD 4Runner comes with a Torsen differential and therefore Toyota should offer the same AWD system on all FJ Cruisers.
