Used 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser for Sale near Austin, TX
The 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser saw very few changes for the model year, as a redesign was in the works for the following year. The most notable change was the addition of an optional two-person third seat, supplementing the three-person third seat option.
The 1997 Toyota Land Cruiser came as a standard model and the luxurious 40th anniversary Limited Edition. The 1997 Land Cruiser had a 4.5-liter, 212 horsepower six cylinder. A four-speed automatic was the only available transmission. The 1997 Land Cruiser had a permanently engaged four-wheel-drive system. Fuel economy was about 12/14 mpg.
The 1997 Land Cruiser was very popular among outdoorsy types and soccer moms alike. The car handled well off-road and in bad weather, but also had plenty of cargo space for kids and gear alike. However, owners do complain about the poor gas mileage, and say that due to the vehicle's weight, brakes wear out very quickly.

(20 reviews)Bought my sweet LandCruiser when in AZ when it was 2yrs young, and it moved to TX with me for 2 years, and the last 7 now in Germany. This vehicle is awesome! I have a hoopty for general around town and to-from work, but every so often i treat myself to driving my baby- he loves to open up on the Autobahn! Had an Opel sedan hit me in a Stau on the Autobahn a few years ago - wiped away the front half of her Opel, and I had a scratched bumper...! Of course, I had her buy me a new towing frame and painted bumper, but my heart was hurt more seeing my LandCruiser injured, than there was damage to him! Minute - insignificant note would be a slight dripping above the driver's left foot rest when it's raining hard, or i'm flying down the Autobahn. And, to the note about poor brake pad wear: it was 7 years before i had to change my first pair...if you understand you're driving a beast, and it takes longer to get stopped, you learn to brake gradually, when possible, and not ride the brakes nor slam them in your daily outings. Otherwise, i've turned down a few offers to sell, because i love my Limited Edition 40th Anniversary LandCruiser that much!
I met some one, once, who had one like this. He told me that the manufacturer made a mistake building those Land Cruiser. I asked him what he means. He said: "They are too well made, they are too reliable." I agree with that after owning one for 11 years and counting. If you don't check the speedometer, you won't realise that you speeding. Very smooth acceleration, good braking and handling. It is fun to drive and I particulary feel safe driving it.
You simply can't destroy this beast... love it... comfy and performance is great... with 3 diff locks and a factory winch... full-time four wheel drive... This vehicle is simply amazing. I still believe this is the last of the real 4x4 Land Cruiser... the rest are luxury vehicles.
Rugged, reliable, comfortable. Shop around, gems are out there!
I recieved a black 1997 toyota land cruiser that we had had in my family when i turned 16. we got it with about 3,000 miles on it and it now has close to 190,000 and it still runs unbelievably. i recieve compliments about it all the time especially with the off road look with a brush guard and fog lights. overall great truck and would recommend to anyone.
