Not really.

Never seen a Toyota badged car sell for 750k.

Thats like saying an Aston Martin from a few years ago is pretty much a Ford.

No its not, Lexus is a seperate brand with their own platforms, except for LX570 and ES.

FPV's come off the same line as any other Falcon, sharing 90% of the same parts.

WGAF - this thread is neither about Toyota or Ford or any other vehicle.
Comparing the G-wagon to a Toyota, or any other vehicle for that matter, is stupid.
The G-Wagon just IS.
You either get it or you don't.
