The new 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five and comes in
two-tone with a Voodoo Blue, Titanium Metallic, Black Diamond, Sun
Fusion, Sandstorm or Brick body color and White top. The interior
fabric color is Dark Charcoal, while the dash, center instrument panel
trim and the door inserts match the body.
