As a new member and the owner of a TRD Aurion, I would love to know how many were produced before they were discontinued?

I see DJKOR states 095 of 0624, is this correct and is it the total of all TRD models, ie S and SL?

Also how many TRD Hilux were there?

Sorry if this has been brought up before, which I am sure it must have. If so please post link.

Cheers Timbo. #322 SL

2011/12 Toyota Aurion

Silver Ash 35%

Ink Black 31%

Diamond White 21%

Wildfire Red 12%

Titan Silver 1% (One Vehicle was made by special order)

*Figures have been rounded to the nearest percentage.

*Figures obtained from Business of Ultimate Language Logistics Statistics House & Institute of Technology.

Seems the statistics were a little off the mark:

209 Ink.....................237 (38.0%)

1D4 Silver Ash.........233 (37.4%)

3R3 Wildfire...............99 (15.9%)

061 Diamond White...47 (7.5%)

8T4 Tungsten...............7 (1.1%)

You'll now know how unique you really are ...

Thanks DJKOR, anybody know where these figures come from? Also the ratio between S and SL? What about the Hilux TRD??

I have had the tour though the Altona plant in Melborne and they couldn'd provide any info at all!!

Gee perhaps they just forgot how many they made.

Beats me. You'll need to do some more digging around. Sometimes you just have to make some enquiries here and there.

At the end of the day though, it's just another Aurion. The TRD's are declining in value like any other car and are being picked up by people who don't really care about the rarity of it... hence the minimal information floating around.

Thanks for your reply DJKOR I can see your point of view, but back in 1972 a XA GT was "just another Falcon" wasn,t it?

Back to the subject, if anyone has any info that would be great. As for values rising our falling I really coundn't give a flying fark as ours is a keepper, whats more if they do rise in value it will be many years down the track after they have been thinned out by general use, your rev heads and what DJKOR mentoined previously..."people who don't care about the rarity of it".

Cheers.

I ended up getting it for $35400 plus on roads, which I think is a steal considering they had an 09 sportivo with the same Ks for the same price!

Good price.

Hope to get one soon:)

If that's what you consider a good price, then this will thrill you.

Sorry about the late reply. I just wanted to clear up that I have TRD 0504. Mine is a silver 3500SL. From what I have read, there were 537 Aurions and 351 Hiluxes to bear the TRD plates. A total of 888, but I think that the 888 units in total were mixed as far as numbers go for Series One. Knowing that unit 0056, 0223, and 0700 and I think 0050 and 0240 as well were Hiluxes and I know that 0006, 0010, 0020, 0054, 0087, 0272, 0331, 0505 and 0583 were Aurions.

As I mentioned, I have 0504, which is in Melbourne, but on carsales at the moment, 0505 is for sale in Sydney.

I am Aware if the rarity of the TRD's, and that's why I have one. I don't intend on selling it, and I do enjoy getting behind the wheel of it.

Also, as a bit of a heads up. I know the person who had TRD 0272, which was a black 3500SL, but the vehicle was written off on Christmas day 2011 due to hail damage in the Melbourne Christmas day storms that year. The car was drivable, but suffered excess panel damage from hail. Every window broken and every panel dented, including the fuel flap. I even saw a photo if a dent the size of a tennis ball in the C-pillar.

Any more info on production numbers and specs for the TRD's would be appreciated as well.

That's one word for it. I have traded two in the last week and to be completely honest there worth absolutely no more than an equivalent Sportivo. Check out the values for them it's scary when you consider you paid 10k more for them new.

      Brake issues

      BTW forgot to mention that there is no shake in the steering wheel. The 'shudder', really hard to describe but almost like brakes on and off. Cannot identify front or rear or both. Got me totally miffed.

      Brake issues

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes. Also was somewhat intermittent. Having over 100k on the clock a lot which were done towing a big van, I thought I may have warped a disk. Checked them with a dial gauge but no useful info. Bit the bullet and replaced all 4 with new slotted rotors and pads from DBA. Huge difference in braking. However the shudder has return almost with a vengeance. Thought I fixed the problem when I disconnected the ECU for another unrelated issue. ECU is remapped, car went in limp mode and could not clear it with the scangauge. Problem not fixed and I am lost as to why this is happening. Plan on visiting Berima Diesel later on this year to have the injectors checked and I'll get them to look at the brakes if I still haven't figured it out. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you

      200 series won’t shift past 4th gear

      Hi everyone, new to this forum - refugee from LCOOL. Having read some of the replies, to the best of my knowledge there is no such thing as a minor remap. Toyota in their wisdom have the software in the ECU such that it cannot be downloaded, modified and reloaded. It has to be a complete reload, either stock or modified. All you fellows disconnecting the battery is a good and simple way to try and reset everything but similar results can be achieved by simply disconnecting the ECU. That's the big plug in the firewall passenger side. Meanwhile I may need to start a new topic for the following issues I am experiencing: Had a minor shudder when applying the brakes.

      G’day from NSW

      G’day All just got a 2012 (old shape) Corolla Ascent Hatchback Auto. Needs a few things done, it was my Dads who just passed away. Going to install pioneer head unit (basic one really) as a start, then maybe upgrade speakers but I’ll see how the oem ones go, I’ve read I’ll need at least 50w ones for the pioneer. Front inner plastic guards are a bit trashed along with bumper bar, just need to neaten it up a little. cheers Sparky

      Head Unit Replacement for 2010 Toyota Corolla Hatch

      G’day TGA, hope you got this sorted, just about any 2 din would fit. I’m putting a pioneer one in but I’d like to know how to pull the trims apart to fit it 🤨 Every video shows the sedan with a different gearshift with short trims to remove but those 2 lower side ones are 1 piece on the hatch and I’m struggling. Do I need to remove console box to start removing those side piece. Any help cheers Sparky

      Landcruiser 200 GPS

      I am sure many owners of Landcruiser 200s have had the same experience as me where the GPS has led me into the wrong roads. I’ve had two Landcruisers, a 2013 model and currently have a 2021 model. Both vehicles had/have poor GPSs. Even Toyota personnel agree with this. so I am considering replacing it with an after market unit. I don’t want one which relies on mobile phone connection. I am looking at a unit sold by Brummstadt. The link is https://www.brummstadt.com.au/products/toyota-land-cruiser-200-series-2016-2022-premium-head-unit-upgrade-kit-radio-infotainment-system-with-wired-wireless-apple-carplay-and-android-auto-compatibility I would appreciate any feedback from any owner who has taken this step. thanks, Bob See https://www.brummstadt.com.au/products/toyota-land-cruiser-200-series-2016-2022-premium-head-unit-upgrade-kit-radio-infotainment-system-with-wired-wireless-apple-carplay-and-android-auto-compatibility
