The angle at which the picture was taken seems to be pretty skewed in this particular picture, but thanks for the input.

yeah, there's a big size difference...i got to sit at one today (didn't get a chance to test drive it, no time) and i felt small when i hopped back to my 1st gen ...definately feels like it's better built than the 1st gen, and the air actually gets cold faster hehe..

So Randode says elsewhere that his drop with the Goldlines gives the same ride as stock. Any input on the ride with the TRD springs?

They changed a few things that I really like about the first gen.
The size, the "boxiness", and the awkwardly tall roof line. lol

Oh well, I'll wait till I see one in person to make a final judgement.

I wonder if someone could take a picture of it not in angles so we can better see the difference in dimensions.

Look at it this way, the 2g xB is curvy so it's making it feel bigger anyway.

The 1g xB cuts off at the corners leaving you with only what you need not a bloated exterior.

The 2g is growing on me but the 1g still stands as my favorite of the two.

i like it in white! Its a good picture to see the two next to each other, especially with the same rims and color. Nice work, good luck with it!
