There may be an "affordable" option in the Defender lineup.

Why? This vehicle is made for off road adventure. Why would you expect it to be built for speed? I don't get it. Honestly curiousAnything other than my current 17' Tacoma OR will be a step down in reliability. Lexus doesn't make any off roader I'm interested in. As soon as I saw the wrapped 4 door Bronco from a month ago or so, I noticed it had a fairly upright windshield, implying it won't be a fast vehicle. If there isn't a fast version of the Bronco, I'll pass.

Judging by just the photos there, it looks like the 2 door comes with quite a few options, while the 4-door appears to have a stripped version as the starting model.I will admit it caught my attention. Didn't think of the Defender as a real competitor until I watched those.
I went to their website and the 2-door has a higher starting price
Correct, currently you can only get the 2 door in 'first edition' trim which includes a bunch of stuff. The 4 door 'First Edition' is $68,650. We'll probably see the real base price for the 2 door in another 6 months or so, I would expect around $45kJudging by just the photos there, it looks like the 2 door comes with quite a few options, while the 4-door appears to have a stripped version as the starting model.
They are, somewhat surprisingly. The 4 door was available first last year, but the 2 door first edition is available to order now.I thought they weren't even selling the 2 door in North America?
Have we forgotten how ridiculously expansive the aftermarket will be? If it's a true Wrangler competitor, you're about to see the Ford aftermarket *explode* when the Bronco is released. There will literally be nothing you'd want and couldn't get at a price point you pick.Who buys a SUV to go fast? Warranty isn't going to help you if it dies on a trail
