Driving The Gx470 In Africa

[nduka]

HI Everyone, my name is Nduka..and I am based in Nigeria, Africa. In 2006, I bought a 2003 Lexus GX470 from Lexus Of Ann Arbor, MI. and shipped it to Africa. The GX 470 is not sold in Africa but there is a toyota SUV called PRADO which is very similar in shape but less luxurious.

The GX 470 has proven to be the best buy I have evr made in my life. It handles the rough roads of Nigeria, Africa pretty well and proves very reliable. Some parts meant for Prado like brake pads do match!

I AM WAITING for the next model of GX 470 to ship to Africa!!

It's cool driving the GX 470 in USA but it s even cooler driving it in Africa...where it gets stares all the time. I FEEL LIKE I kicked LEXUS in the butt for selling the GX470 only in USA/CANADA & JAPAN!!

My GX 470 even carries a personalised plate number - my surnname!

Anyone wants a pix of me and my GX470 in Africa??? B)

Glad you're happy with it. They are precision machines.

Just make sure you've got a 'Rhino side impact' rider on the insurance! :o

Any Lexus techs out that way? ;)
