Nice car man. Colour is different, I like it.

I only had my car for 2 1/2 weeks too :D so far all I did is HID conversion. Massive difference in night driving.

Maybe sound system? Wheels? Suspension? I bought the bright white LED parker lights too, waiting for someone to install them for me as Toyota makes it so damn difficult to access the bulbs. My next purchase will be gps/dvd to replace current 6cd stacker.

Hope that gives you some ideas.

You guys all saying red? To me it actually looks like inferno. My favourite colour on an Aurion. Especially on a sportivo!! B)

Yep my first thought was Inferno in colour too - if that's the case I don't recall seeing another Inferno coloured Aurion on here. It's a nice colour but imo looked better on the Camry than it did on the Aurion, but of course I am biased :lol: Still looks great though and uncommon too which is always good :D Another one of those colours like Cyber Green and Aurora Gold that were only out in their early years of production, which is a shame because Toyota don't have such a big colour range anymore for Aurion's and Camry's, especially for bright colours.

+1 to all the mods everyone has listed already, wheels are always the biggest instant face lift and there are plenty of choices out there. Best of luck whatever you decide to do! And please keep the pictures coming :D

Yeah its the inferno. Thanks for the suggestions, any good manufacturers of aftermarket stuff ? (price is not a concern)

For a cheap but good looking mod I'd change the interior lighting. Even going to a white led looks better than stock imo and provides good lighting.

I'm thinking wheels will make the car and be able to show off it's personality the best. Which leads to a slippery slope of mods, after getting wheels it always looks to high so it would need lowering which starts to add up. Nice looking car btw. I've always been a fan of the "ferrari" red though but I still don't mind the colour

      Buying 3rd hand 2010 Aurion Sportvio for $9000

      That is about the standard price you'd expect nothing crazy, I paid pretty much the same for a 2008 model with 160k on the clock. As to the high km's and maintenance, 165,000km for a Toyota is nothing to sweat about and the maintenance/repairs are pretty cheap. If it's been treated well by the previous owners and you continue to look after it then it will easily last you another 5 years.

      Removing low beam bulb 2014 Camry

      I apologise if this is an idiotic question--I've searched and watched dozens of videos on how to replace a burnt out bulb, and i'm fine with it (i've even done it before, though it was years ago). the problem is that I can't seem to get the bulb out of the 'plug'/base--it seems that that is too blindingly obvious to be explained or shown on camera. I can't remember what I did last time I replaced a bulb... I don't know if I have to push something on the fitting to release it, if i have to twist it, or just yank really hard. I've applied as much strength as I dared, but am afraid of breaking something if i try to brute force it out. I could just pay $15 for someone at supercheap to pop it out and replace it for me but it's become a matter of principle at this point... I'm unwilling to admit defeat. The photos below are from a different post on this forum, but they're the same exact kind of bulb/fitting i'm struggling with... Any tips would be much appreciated. My wife is getting really annoyed with me because we can't drive at night but i'm too stubborn to pay $15. Thanks!

      Aftermarket Air Intake

      Hey all, Just recently bought a 2007 TRD Aurion and am trying to find an aftermarket Air Intake, but am coming to the realisation that there is a very limited market for TRD Aurions. So far the only system I've been able to find is a K&N Typhoon Intake (link here: https://www.carmodsaustralia.com.au/KN-Filters-69-8611TS-69-Series-Typhoon-Performance-Air-Intake-System-Camry-35L-07-11?cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=18898892770&cq_con=&cq_term=&cq_med=pla&cq_plac=&cq_net=x&cq_plt=gp&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwpZWzBhC0ARIsACvjWRP893VLnAQsxIZJjcW5Go75b_T2N25rSWBVu6IeDziM2v41bpeyOREaAg1fEALw_wcB), however when viewing specifications for the product it states it fits Camry's from 2007-2011. Further digging revealed this product is an import from the USA hence why it's for a Camry - they don't have Aurions there. I am aware that they both share the 2GR-FE engine so I'm assuming the product will be able to be retrofitted to my TRD, provided the throttle body intake is the same diameter across Supercharged 2GR-FE's and N/A 2GR-FE's. Has anyone else in Aus had any luck sourcing/fitting one of these K&N Intakes, or know of another brand that do them specifically for the TRD Aurion's. Pretty confident in just ordering the aforementioned kit but their return policy sucks (can't return and refund if packaging has been opened, etc). Cheers guys! Jason.

      Heater problems

      My Toyota Celica SX blows cold air at the driver’s side when the heater is on, and it is an absolute nuisance. I get that it takes a while for the heater to work properly, but some reason after I have the heater on, it starts blowing out cold air even after a good warm up! I feel like the heater core may need replacing or the air conditioner/heater needs re-gassing.

      Entertainment Unit Upgrade

      Hi everyone. Just after some advice on head unit upgrade. I'm looking to upgrade the functionality of the entertainment system to do a few things - display my dual camera from my caravan, utilise the HEMA OnRoad/OffRoad module, stream to the rear screens, and include wireless apple play. I've narrowed down to the most popular which seems to be Advanced Ice, EC Offroad and Galios - but none seem to do all four functions seamlessly. Not sure if I'm actually looking for a unicorn or not...has anyone had any experience in installing one of these systems and has it done all the functions? Any regrets? Cheers Mark
