Next time go with white :-/ I personally like black color on SUV with shiny chrome around, just too lazy to keep it clean.
CONGRATULATIONS!

We wanted white but they didn't have one in stock with the option we want.

I have a loaded 2011 Black Limited - added OEM hitch & roof cross bars. Other than lots of kids snacks under the rear seats it looks like every other Black Highlander out there. Sorry, no pics of the HL but here are a few other toys in the garage...

sound deadener on all doors & tailgate on inner and outer walls, and used excess in driver floor/firewall area
redone sound system using OEM navigation headunit
LED lights in all interior bulbs (and lower front door puddle lamps)

I'm assuming based on name, how he types and the picture of his wife that he is. My wife's family is Russian so I've been good (so far?) at picking up on it. BTW here's a 2010-present HID retrofit;

I'm horrible with languages, so I'm always impressed when someone learns/learning a new one (especially considering Russian uses a separate alphabet). I just thought it was funny randomly seeing it pop up on TN.

I saw that exact retrofit pop up on HIDplanet.com yesterday, s2000's and mini H1 in high beam, thats an expensive, but very effective retrofit

Black looks so good when it is clean. Luckily I detail cars on the side, so keeping it clean is not a issue.

Gee, my '74 came bra-less!

Teal blue 'B' with tan interior and chrome bumpers and bumperettes - what a fun ride back in the day. Sold it in '83. Also had a white '67 'B' once upon a time!

Sorry for the hijack but you just gotta comment when you see a great classic car.
