Yes I know, its very popular here.

Yesterday was the premiere for the car, the showroom is cramped and there were literally many people. From 8-1pm 70 cars were booked.

The car starts from 50,000 dollars to 62,000, the top of the line is called Vip-LE comes with golden logos etc, radar, cruise control more cameras and different wood and carpets.

The engine comes in two formats, 5.6L 317hp and 5.6L 400hp. There are couple of types the engine you get lets say the 317hp the basic doesnt have a screen, no power tail gate etc.

I dont get it. Titan / Armada Sales are in the toilet. Why bring this one State side? Even Q56 sales are lack-lust er at best.

Armada is canceled, i dont know about about Titan yet.
2010's QX56's production is being moved from MS to Japan and shares the Patrol's platform.
