Hi guys ... Steve from Toronto Canada here, and VERY excited to take possession on my new 2019 IM. Sold the 1973 FJ40 on BAT and grabbed this from Henry directly from the shop.
She will be here in one week

Wow, that's a big change, for sure, but Welcome to the Madness and enjoy your new baby!
We have an IM here in Toronto too.
Sharp Looking Speedster!! That FJ 40 is Pretty Sweet Too!
what is the name of that paint, is it off a certain car and year.
Love the color! Congrats!
Steve, congrats on scoring on that beautiful Speedster! 'Welcome To The Madness' known as replicar ownership. Hope you will post some pics of you driving that bad-boy, and wishing you many miles of top-down driving enjoyment!
BTW, I'm diggin' on your FJ-40(s). I had a '75 and after getting beat-up driving that beast overland for 15 years, sold it and bought a '91 Range Rover Classic (Great Divide) logging 300,000 miles. Had great fun with those vehicles as I'm sure you did with yours.
To my Toronto IM buddies - I'm just west of you, near Guelph. I know there is another IM in Toronto - a black widebody just a couple of years old.
We'll have to arrange a meet up when conditions allow. Right now, I'm enjoying this fabulous weather we are having, with great country drives.
Bob, those new wheels takes your car's bad-a$$ery to a whole new level!
@Sheck44 I forgot to mention that low-bow top on your car gives it a cool 'chopped' look (hot-rod) !!
I watched that car on Henry's website. Love the colo(u)r
Welcome to another IM owner north of the 49th.
Morning guys ! So look what showed up yesterday morning ... Could not be happier. This is the Girlfriends dream car ... She was expecting to see my next project truck to roll out of the back and when the guy drove the Speedster out the look on her face and response was PRICELESS !!
happy wife= happy life
Hi from Vancouver (the Great Wet Coast) Steve, and Welcome to the Madness! You're going to love your Speedster; Henry builds great cars. Love the FJ40's as well- my daily driver is an '08 FJ Cruiser and my sons and I get out in it fairly often. I'll post a current pic of it later (installed a 3" lift and new tires 3 months ago). I've owned 2 Toyotas previously ('86 shortbox deluxe 4x4 pick up and '94 4Runner) but this is the most fun 1 yet! Al
Beautiful car and glad to hear you have partner buy-in!
