Realized Something Strange

It wouldn't make the news of the weird but has anyone ever seen a white sport edition 4Runner with a white scooped hood from the factory? I mean I know you can get a scooped hood and paint it white but did they even make the sport edition in white? I just have never seen one -- ever!

i've never seen one, except mike's (xtremeoffroad). now that looks nice. i thought i saw one in my rear view yesterday, and thought "that's weird" but it turned out to be silver, it just looked white cause of the brightness, distance, etc .

the other day i saw a limited 3rd gen with body color side door cladding and a hood scoop. now that was unusual.

Agreed!! I'm guessing you really jumped it that high? Hope you dont do that too often.

Back to the topic at hand, I've never seen one either and I think the burgandy ones are pretty rare.

One's I've seen

I've seen plenty of Burghundy ones before -- but that's the state university color where I live. I've seen green, black, silver, and blue, not the dark storm grey, red or white though.

yep, it really got that high, it was rad. there's some more pictures on my site, but unfortunately it's down right now.


i think a red or white 3rd gen sport edition 4runner would look tight.

Mike's didn't come from the factory with the hood scoop. He had the new hood with scoop put on after he rolled his 4Runner and trashed his hood, among other things. I agree, it does look good.

Well I've never seen the 3rd gens with a factory scoop or sport edition package. Hey by the way what color is your (02Runner) 4Runner? It looks like a cream or pearl off-white color in the pic, or is it white?

I saw an 02 blue sport ed. once and ever since I've wished that mine was the same color. It was SO SHARP! Haven't seen one since...

Here are two pics, one of my 02 and one of my 03, the 02 is ThunderCloud (grey) and the 03 is White.


White is so much easier to keep looking decent, just hose it off and your good!

Those are two sweet looking rigs! What did you do with your stock wheels on your 4th gen? You plan on selling them?

Hey Vato,
I have kept them in my garage. I had planned on using them on road trips, but with the way I have to balance my wheels (PITA), I probaly should sell them. They are perfectly fine, and the tires have about 1600 miles on them if they even have that. If you're interested, let me know. I don't know what shipping would be,but it can't be too bad.

Doug
