I waited 12 weeks to get my 4Runner. I had to order it to get the Bright Red color I wanted, in 4 wheel drive, with the rear locking diff.

I have not seen very many of these Red ones. I think 2000 was the last year they made this color. I ordered mine in April 1999 and it was the first one off the boat in September.

I have always thought Volkswagon had the best colors. Royal Blue, Navy, Yellow, Red, Black, green, and White.

Post here if you have this color...I'm not talking about burgundy, I'm talking about bright red. I have only seen like 4 of these since I got mine. 3 in Texas and 1 in Colorado.

Feel free to post pictures!!!

yup.

 

Again, not Red more like burgundy.

 

A guy here on yotatech from WA has a bright red one. His username is "snowboardpunk" or something along those lines.

 

Yeup, that'd be Cody. We also know him as "SwampThang" 'cause of this outing:

What wheels are those? Not the stock ones, but the ones that look very stock, just cooler. I like them a lot.

 

Lexus LX450 wheels.

 

WELL which is it????
first you say not burgundy...yours is bright red!!! Now you say not bright red its more like burgundy lol check the color code and call the dealer for the correct color or see the delivery slip it will say on that then ask us.....

 

To end the confusions, there were two red color available for the 3rd gen:

Radiant Red = bright/true red (05 Tacos still use this name)
Sunfire Red Pearl = burgundy/maroon (05 Runners come in this color but its called Salsa red).

 

Here's a pic of my buddies 4wd prerunner(minus tundra fibreglass hood)

 

To clarify my earlier statement, which was a stand alone statement to Hawaiian4r, also pointing out that it was the second "not bright red one" posted. The one HAWAIIAN4R posted was Burgundy, not Bright Red as mine is. The color I am looking for is "Radiant Red". Sorry, I did not post the official name at first. Here is a picture of my

Red Runner

I can kinda see how that might have been confusing, but if you read all the posts and checked the links you can see that I am not the one that is confused. It's not that hard.

 

Mine is that color. It's a little faded, but I thought that color was only available in 96? Cardinal red??? I need to get in the garage and polish mine up to it's former luster...

 

lol... red rocket of redness, heh???

 

Mine...

 

That's a pretty sweet color Jayson. Looks good man!

 

Hey, thanks, Christian. That's actually an older pic, right after I lifted it almost two years ago. It is the same radiant red the others are talking about, but looks slightly darker in the shade...I just realized that was before I build my sliders, too. I need to polish it again, too
