1990 4Runner in Medium Brown Metallic?

In 1990 the first year of the 2nd-gen 4Runner was available in Medium Brown Metallic, code 4K4. I'm looking for a photo of this color for my color gallery. I searched eBay, cars.com and cardomain.com and couldn't find one. Anyone know of one?

Can't help you on the Medium Brown Metallic, but if the toyotareference site (which is cool) is yours Azure Blue Pearl is actually this color:

There's another Azure Blue Pearl that's not quite as blue as mine, but still very obviously blue, unlike the trucks pictured. I think those are either cool or lavender metallic. There's a thread on here somewhere debating those colors, thinking they had the blue but it turned out to be one of the other colors.

Whew.

Carry on.

Wow, that was good stuff! Cool Steel Metallic and Lavender Steel Metallic are the same color, Toyota just decided to change the name for some strange reason. I moved the photos that were in Azure to the correct gallery (926) and added your photo to the Azure gallery (8L6). Thanks!

Still searching for the rare and elusive 1990 4Runner in Medium Brown Metallic.

Haha, maybe it was an attempt to get more females into a 4Runner. That isn't gay at all, that is hot.
