Yup as cool as it would be to have it AWD, it's never gunna happen. Since TRD didn't do it, Toyota itself will be very unlikely to do so.

I still stick to my original comments. Front looks a mixture of Camry and New Accord Honda. And still not liking the rear lights. Maybe the looks will grow after a while. Aurion also has a luxury lo

Fancy that. I never would have thought the figures were a published amount so to speak. Is that like a publicly accessible database, or something related to your like of work/study?

Also funny to see that there were more white than red. I thought it would have been the other way around.

Thanks for the fast response u54mot...

I'm with Djkor. I would have sworn that there were more red than white. I had to wait on carsales for a white one to come up in QLD... I'm pretty sure there aren't any on atm either...

Love to see pics of the one off...

Djkor, I read somewhere on here u were thinking of letting your girl go for something a little quicker... Was that just a passing thought or are you still feeling that way?

Because the next gen Aurion truely is just a V6 Premium Camry, it has no design input from Toyota Design Australia. Our next Aurion is really what the rest of the world see's as the "premium Camry" there will be some subtle changes but the car wont be as different as the Current Aurion as that had alot more Australian input in design etc.

Now that is a real pity... Hopefully they have already picked up the changes that were made by TMCA last time.

btw my ZR6 is white and I had to wait from October until the middle of Feb to get it. Maybe they were in the middle of a LHD run...

The new Aurion looks like shizzle.

I always wanted an Aurion but was scared they were starting to look a bit dated but after seeing the new Aurion, the old one is much better. blurgh.

lol that is strange? White is a very common Sportivo colour, did yours have the sunroof by any chance? And nah it isn’t anything to do with LHD/RHD. the Toyota production system and the Altona plant is so advanced that a Thai spec left hand drive Camry could be built followed by a RHD Aust Spec Aurion Sportivo. Camry and Aurion in all their different specs are built on the same line at the same time.

I guess to e fair to the new car we'll have to wait until we can touch, feel and drive it until we make our final decisions lol. :)

It'll be a while till I get a new car :(.

Seriously been wanted the Presara for a few years now (always regretted getting a Grande over a Presara), then the time came this year to upgrade my 04 Altise and with the Aurion upgrade being soon etc. I couldn't justify buying it because I thought it was starting to age and would look pretty outdated compared to the new one (not to mention that the interior of my Grande and the Presara is way too similar) so I bought something else instead.

Seeing these spy pics though, I like the older model better but like you said we can't tell until we see it in the flesh.

How come there's no pictures from that even Toyota held to show off the new Camry to dealers, was it a no camera event and the leaked video a hidden cam?

According to the leaked pictures to date, the car looks somewhat better styled than the current Camry. To make a comparison between that and the current Aurion just seems unnecessary, simply because i think it looks way off the 'good' looks of the current one.

Yes, sunroof & sat nav... probably explains the delay.

Yeah they had a slight issue with the sunroof drip drains so they stopped producing cars with sunroofs for a month or so whilst they came up with a fix so i daresay that is the reason or your delay.

WOW.... that is actually better than i expected, well the front anyway. the rear is slightly boring compared to the agressive front though. But yeah i was worried there for a while but you can't call the car boring now! Now bring on Aurion, although i don't think it will look as tough as the Camry Sportivo or Atara.

      Wobble at the front

      Vibration under acceleration is quite commonly due to a failing CV axle. I had it happen on my old Aurion where coasting would be fine and under acceleration/load it would start to vibrate quite violently.

      Brake issues

      Had the rear rotors machined. So far have travelled under 10k kms and the problem has come back, albeit not as bad. Will have a chat with the guy who machined the rotors and DBA also. Maybe need to replace with genuine Toyota items.

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      Hi Ross, we have a 2013 Landcruiser. Played with various oils and concluded that 5W30 Synthetic is the best option. Nulon seems to be on special often, GW is also good. Castrol Magnatec not really suitable for a diesel. Penrite is also good but try and stick to a full synthetic. No real need to change oil at 5000 Kms unless you worked the engine towing. I found that the oil level dropped when using the gearbox to slow down like you do in a manual. Other then that no oil use at 140k kms. Best oil is AMSOIL, but unduly expensive. Controversial but I swear by it is a 'catch can'. If you don't have one, get one but the right one for the car. Initially I was skeptical about its purpose but am sorry I did not get one from the beginning (new). If you check the design of the engine, the cam chain run just below the PCV valve. IMHO this promotes oils being flung into the PCV valve and hence the inlet tract. A catch can will catch that oil - no pun intended.

      rear wheel arch hole covers (3rd row seats removed)

      I ordered the Booxe Gap Caps from South Africa. Way better quality than the ones from Nautica. A little more expensive but looks way better installed. FYI one 3rd row seat weighs 15.4kg's that's a weight saving of nearly 31kgs with both removed.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      I have a 2011 Grande and it is not possible to play music via the bluetooth without using the aux connection. I bought this product which makes it a wireless bluetooth experience. https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0BG2GMH8S?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title This device connects to your phone via bluetooth and connects to the car via the aux connection. For me, once the car starts it all connects up, I say Hey Google, play music and the car plays music without having to connect my phone to any cables.

      2010 MANUAL Prado with high speed acceleration hickup

      I have a 2010 manual Prado with 196,000 km that has excellent service history Injectors were done at 130,000 km and today I replaced the fuel filters as a first step for this issue. The car pretty well drives perfectly and I have no issues with it Other than if I'm sitting at 110 km an hour and put my foot down it hesitates for a second like a cough. It only does it at this speed. If I'm sitting on 100 and accelerate it doesn't do it and same with any other speeds like 60 or 80 put my foot down it's fine, only does it at 110. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you

      Best Oil for 2014 Lancruiser GXL 200 series TT V8 Diesel

      My 2008 Sahara has 630,000 km on original engine and injectors. I run Gulf Western Top Dog 10w 40 semi synthetic oil, spec is CJ4 low Ash . Last EGR inspection at 400,000km revealed no soot. Engine still has same oil pressure as new and great fuel economy....Top Dog oil is for heavy duty truck diesel engines, not cheap but neither is a new engine..20K plus.

      2013 Kluger grande Bluetooth music issues

      Hey, can anyone help? We have a 2013 Kluger grande, Bluetooth iPhone and calls work well through factory radio. To play music we have an aux cord plugged in. Anyone know how to just Bluetooth music from phone through factory stereo? It’s weird we can Bluetooth calls but not music. Thanks for your time and help.
