Noice... 2dr Squatch just looks the best.
Change the color and add aftermarket window tint and that will be my simple build (well then sliders, maybe bumpers, OBA...).
Keep in mind lift kits aren't exactly going to be available day one. Also 3.5" on IFS, you'll most likely see 2-3" adjustable coilover kits (where you usually try to avoid the high end as you'll get a harsh ride).
Sounds like there will be a few more FJ's for sale next year because of the Bronco :p
I never knew anyone with the diff issue but did know a few guys in the SoCal off-road group with the cracked fenders. I don't think any of them even bothered to do anything about it as it wasn't a big deal...
I'll be selling my 2011 FJ (see showcase link below avatar) for the Bronco down payment, never had any issues with it and it's just been solid on and off road. But as with any vehicle, going on somebodies one off story on a forum isn't a good way to judge a vehicle.

Hoping there will be aftermarket fender flare delete kits (basically something to make it look pretty enough with no flares). I think I'll also go aftermarket for sliders, I already wanted something that came out from the body more anyway.
@new2offroad I just downloaded this spreadsheet to see how much my Grangtober deal would save me and something seemed off, the totals savings was too low compared to the estimated selling subtotals. Looks like the equation in cell J15 is using the APR in E10 and not the state tax in E9 like...
Just made a reservation with Granger and another with Kearny Mesa, don't want to deal with transferring and will just cancel the one I don't use. Now to figure out if Granger will be more headache than it's worth and not really ending up saving much money or if it could be a fun little vacation...
