why do these bricks have to be so expensive? 90s units commonly go for 30k
it's almost like desirable things cost more
>>28885732i cant think of any 90s SUV as desirable as thiseven W124 and W140 are cheaper by a wide margin
>>28885734triple locker landcruisers
>>28885728Familiarize yourself with the concept of a Veblen good and it will make a lot more sense.
>>28885728Turned into meme just like supra and idk 80 series/hilux to a degree.None of those are worth those prices.
>>2888573480 series land cruisersbut you're missing the point anyway
>>28885738This.Some things cost a lot more than they ought to. Some people see this as a positive, some as a negative.
>>2888573980s are absolutely worth their price premium.
>>28885753nah, not in my opinion. they where worth the prices from idk 10 years ago. same also goes for that era hilux.
>>28885728>why do these bricks have to be so expensive?
>>28885756yeah and any other merc that isnt rare or a sports car is worth peanuts
>>28885757see >>28885732
>>28885754hilux got memed to much high overall prices and that was back before everything went to shit. 20-30k burgerbux for a clean baselined 80 in today's environment sounds about right.
>>28885737>>28885739>>28885742>>28885753>>28885762you can still get landcruiser 80s for "cheap" in japan at leastonly place you're finding cheap gwagons are in eastern europe and in the worst condition possible
>>28885768look at those niggerfied monstrosities.
>>28885728Because they didn't change until 2018, even then most normies can barely tell the difference with a new one, and what seems like 90% of them end up riced the fuck out with modern Brabus/AMG "facelift" bodykits and big rimz by people trying to LARP as the more expensive, newer version that they couldn't actually afford.On the other side of the 10% of enthusiasts actually interested in a ladder frame, triple locked 4x4 with solid axles front + rear, they've also kept the prices up since a comparable '90s Land Rover Defender or even a clapped Land Cruiser with 250k miles sells for nearly as much as a G-Class with far lower mileage.>>28885754Shit, 10 years ago you could get 80 Series LCs with under 200k miles for under $5k all day long.
