I thought that AAMI was pretty reasonable, i'm 22 and got $1181 as my premiem on rating 1

Government departments will start snapping them up for fleet, so Either way I don't think things are slowing down for the AT-X Apparently queensland police have a Aurion fleet. They've also just bought one TRD up there. rumours have it that there will be a TRD cop floating around doncaster pretty soon.

Will be sweet if you come for a cruise! Aurion isn't here yet =( comes today (thursday) at 2pm, 14 hours away! counting down man, can't wait! As soon as I get it, i'm cruising down to lorne to visit a few mates doing some youth work down at schoolies.

Hey guys, like I promised, here are the details of the two cruises heading out! Gonna be one massive night! Maybe we could organise to meet at one and cruise with them. The first is with the auto-pilots crew. www.auto-pilots.net MEET TIME: 6:00pm DEPART TIME: 7.00pm MEET DATE: 1st of December, 2007 MEET LOCATION: - Centro The Glen shopping centre cnr Springvale and High Street Roads, Glen Waverley. MELWAYS REF:- Melways Map 71 C1. COST: A gold coin for a cruise map The second is with beastclub Date & Time: Saturday, 1st December 2007 7.30PM Meet with a 9PM ignition! Venue: Nexus corporate park, 37 Dunlop Road, Mulgrave. (melway) 71 B10 I'll be at the auto-pilots one, it's usually a bit more sensible, beastclub can get a bit out of hand, way too many cars there at times. so if you guys want, maybe we can all meet up at the glenny one with auto pilots maybe even a premeet

Well, there's two MASSIVE cruises happening this saturday night, meeting points 5 mins from each other. I'll make a new post for it guys.

LOL Silent, I thought there was really a bug on my screen when i looked at your avatar and tried to flick it off.

so could you get the 232kw out of the aurion engine by swapping the ecu with the is350 chip?

I don't agree with that^ The HID headlight has different lens and projectors. Therefore putting a HID bulb inside a halogen projector = glare... Just because it is projector headlights does not mean a HID should fit in there.. (but then a lot of ppl do!! annoys ppl on the road!!) +1

I'm considering getting a few custom mods done for the aurion, mainly body mods at the moment, custom bonnet scoop, side skirts and rear kit, (i'm fairly happy with the front atm) Might be able to get a deal if there are a couple of us, anyone else considering the same thing? http://www.jetspeed.com.au/

looks like i'll have to pass this time, car doesn't come in till next thursday. Till then i'll still have my old man's avalon, not exactly a cruising car. =p

$800??? oohh, how much would it be to send to melb?

Yeah, I remember asking about the TRD parts for my SX6, I remember the TRD wheels alone being above $4k i'm sure the kit will be a fair bit more than that..

I agree with DKzr6!

good question... I'd like to add another to that while we're on the whole topic of sports mode. Will the car get a better 0-100km time when in sports mode compared to when in drive?

I won't have my car till mid next week, so maybe next time =)

What you say about the ECU is true, I have friend who occasionally drives his parents lexus is350 when she's out of town, just for a change. He tells me that after a while from him driving it, the car's ECU adapts quickly to how he drives it. This doesn't take more than a couple of drives.

Lol, ben... I jumped on to copy the exact same site looks like you beat me to it! http://www.toyota.com.au/toyota/vehicle/Fr...84_1392,00.html Most people who know a little more about cars just said jump in and drive as you like, and as you would most of the time dealers and mechs included... no need to run in like you did with older cars.

That plus you need to make sure that you're at the speed limit almost the whole time on the way to syd! I remember hearing that they've installed point to point camera's, that or they're about to!

Blue, Any update on this?

probably 20's, If i decide to lower it as well i might just get 18's but driving the car will be such a freaking hassle if i lower it, so maybe not

That's my car too! except not so pretty, mines a sx6 these are the rims i'll be putting on her...

As long as we don't let our sights off the cars while we're in lorn, not terribly keen on leaving my car around while those schoolies kids are running around!

I know the usual method of breaking in a brand spanking new car, is to take it real easy on the acceleration for the first 1000kms just to make sure the engine is broken in and crap... But i was speaking to a toyota dealer today who said that with the aurion that is not the case! Aurions come already broken in so you don't have to spend your first 1000kms of your 200kw car driving like a grandma. He even said that it might be a positive thing to open it up a little (being diplomatic for forum reputation reasons) because the ECU remembers how you drive and adjusts accordingly... Can anyone confirm this?? Bottom line is I want to know if i can push the revs as soon as i get my brand new car that I've spent big $$$'s on. Or if I have to be really conservative with it until the first service?

Ah, that sounds like a very good option, specially since I'm getting a dual tone blue/black leather on the seats and inside of the door. So maybe if i can find a similar colored overly for the facia it would be perfect! thanks for that! =)

Oh common, there's more than potential in these things, it'll crap all over those other little jap toy cars that kids are 'hooning' around in these days. Holden and Ford equivalents won't even be able to eat our dust as we'll so darn far ahead! consequently does anyone know the actually 0-100km time for the Aurion? let me know
