I definitely will! Just to let you know, it's very safe here. You could walk the streets at 3am, people are very friendly and hospitable. Local militias protect the populations and are very professional and courteous.

As far as Toyota/Lexus... alive and well here. The SUV'S are very popular, they are branded under different names. Plenty of the V8's. Hyundai is also very popular here. Driving is insane, nobody stops or yields, but there is a pattern like a video game that if you learn, you never hit anyone or get hit!

In 3 days I'll be in Dubai, tons of exotic cars. I'll try and get pics if I can

One more thing....gas is dirt cheap here. You can drive any gas guzzler here. The problem is the air is polluted due to zero smog regulations

I think you can safely assume that :-)

Here's another Toyota you'll never see in North America



These are fleet shuttles at Dubai Airport. I don't think I've seen so many Toyotas and Lexus's as here. Every cab is either a Camry or Sienna

so i've seen a few crowns around and the side is still ugly to me but the back is nice. anyway, i watched this video and was quite impressed. maybe because it was at night.

i think the interior is very nice (what i can see of it!).

I've only seen one so far. You really can't miss them, I'll say, they look unique

I saw one here not too long ago. Looked clean with mirrors on hood (?). It had steering on the right and some marker writing on the windshield.
