O'k guys, thanks for the info on the interiors ie Grege Leather. Regards...............Dixie.

This morning after much haggling with my local yard, I put a deposit down on the new Presara upgrade. The only available colors in stock and ready to go at present, are Sakana Silver with either dark grey interior or dark grey/grege interior, white with dark grey/grege and black with dark grey. Artic Frost with dark grey in 3 weeks, quite a few others in November release. My question to the salesman was, what colour is "grege"? His reply "I think some kind of light beige color, not sure". They haven't got a clue what the real color scheme for the new interiors are.......just guessing. Do any of you guys know what "grege" is ........beige, tan, caramel, brown, ivory??? I am interested in a Sakana with beige interior, or the white with beige, but at present the sale is held up, while I find out the correct colors. The new Toyota website, shows you nothing in the way of interiors, for the up market models!! I would appreciate any info guys, or some snaps of the new interior colors. Thanks and Regards.................dixie.

Here is the latest press release. http://www.watoday.com.au/drive/motor-news...90921-fyb2.html

Update model will have the passenger seat warning light, as well as an audible alarm. Latest info is that model is released to the dealers from the 7th September, so I guess you can order from that date!! Rest of the facelift changes, see here: there is a new front bumper, new headlights and tailights, new grille, mags have changed. No side mouldings and the Aurion badged moved up onto the rear of the front mudguards. No change to engine or transmission, 8 speakers now instead of 6 (+2, subwoofer and amplifier). Improvements to illuminated vanity mirrors!! Radio fascia panel slightly changed including addition of Aux input, passenger seatbelt now has warning light and buzzer, possible upgrade to reversing camera, also changes to part of the dashboard cluster, probably different gauges!! Netting map pockets to rear of front seats, colours to remain the same as current model. Regards.................Dixie.

Guys, I called into my local Toyota shop today re the new upgrade. They confirmed it will go ahead from the August Production line. I can't remember all the changes he showed me, but as you all know, there is a new front bumper, new headlights and tailights, new grille, mags have changed. No side mouldings and the Aurion badged moved up onto the rear of the front mudguards. No change to engine or transmission, 8 speakers now instead of 6 (+2, subwoofer and amplifier). Improvements to illuminated vanity mirrors!! Radio fascia panel slightly changed including addition of Aux input, passenger seatbelt now has warning light and buzzer. Changes to part of the dashboard cluster, probably different gauges!! Netting map pockets to rear of front seats, there was a couple more, but I was trying to memorise too many and lost count. The available colours will be the same, but they are unsure if there will be a price increase with the upgrade. Models should be available late August or in September. Regards...........Dixie.

Hi Guys, I currently own the 2000 Camry Azura and was about to trade her, in for a new Aurion Presara. My local salesman tells me that there is a few cosmetic changes next month, for the current model. I believe new headlights, tailights, side badging, possible grille, maybe new stereo and fascia. Has anybody got a heads up on these changes and if they are in fact going ahead. I would rather wait for the upgrade than buy the current model. Regards............dixie.
