Nice built. That’s serious off road beast. Many “no need” things for average user. Agree that if you can get it off the floor just take it. We did same. Just bought GR Sport off the floor. Someone was struggling to have a finance and we took an opportunity to buy it. 5 min decision. That’s strange but GR has got options not available with others 300 like Sahara, even with extra money. Like front lockers factory fitted or exclusive Electronic Kinetic Dynamic Suspension system. Wrap looks great but decided to go with clear ppf due to practical reasons. Well done built guys

Hey Justin. Apparently, the 300's are using oil because of the hot Vee design, a thermal efficiency issue, from.what i have been told, they need good airflow when worked hard and also time to warm down. I would suggest holding off on engine mods until Toyota nuts out the issue, i have been led to believe they are aware of it. Run it in first before playing with the tune. Great rig mate, enjoy it
