According to a PDFposted on the www.toyota-4runner.org website, the 2010 FJ Cruiser will include a couple of changes.
The first thing that jumps off the page is the loss of VooDoo Blue as a color option, and the addition of "Army Green". What shade of green is still up for speculation, we're hoping it looks something like this:

Other changes include an updated 4.0L engine that increases horsepower by 20hp, yet decreases torque by 8ft/lbs. The document also states a higher EPA mileage estimate (a max of +2mpg for the 4X2 FJ Cruiser), a slightly smaller turning radius, and a larger winshield washer tank.
The document also re-states the specs for what was supposed to be the 2009 Trail Teams Special Edition, that will now be a 2010. This is the all Sandstorm FJ we spoke about last July. We're still not super excited about the TT, but it'll be nice to see a few more specialty FJ's on the road.

NOTE: This information has not been verified and may or may not be accurate. If it is, it looks like 2010 will be a great model year for the FJ Cruiser.

UPDATE: We've now been out wheeling with a 2010 Army Green FJ!

At the 2009 FJ Summit last week, Frank Bonnet from TRD unveiled the 2010 Trail Teams edition FJ Cruiser. The specs are mostly the same as the never-produced 2009 TT Edition, but Frank stated that there will in fact be 1500 of the 2010 models produced. They're expected to be seen at dealerships this fall, so keep an eye out.

It's Official! Toyota announced in a press release yesterday that the 2010 FJ Cruiser will hit dealerships in August, and that most of the rumors floating around the net are in fact true. Army Green will be a new color option (although Toyota doesn't mention which colors are going away, if any) The only other details announced were the increase in HP, tighter turning radius, dual VVT-I engine, and a price increase of 1.4% - 1.5%.

Details for the 2010 Trail Teams Edition haven’t been formally announced, but at the FJ Summit Frank Bonnet from TRD stated that 1500 all Tan TT Edition FJ’s should be arriving at dealers this fall.

The Toyota press release can be found here. We expect to get a test drive of (hopefully) an Army Green ’10 FJC soon, so stay tuned!

Update: Toyota has removed the press release referring to the 2010 FJ Cruiser, no one from Toyota has been available for comment. We still expect to see '10 FJ's on the lots very soon.

Update 2: Looks like the link changed, it's now HERE.
