We don't have this here because???

Perfect competitor for the G8.

Toyota has compassion for my vision

Perfect competitor for the G8.

More like the Grand Prix GXP

*Front-wheel drive

*No stick

*V6

They really need to remove that tacky crap on the front. I don't understand that black grille demarcation...Jetta much?

The engine sound nice, though. Just not in that car.

[Intrepidation]

That front bumper looks like the plastic is warped.

While the front fascia is little much... I have to admit, it's not bad looking by any means and is worlds better than the Camry. It seems like it actually has a tiny bit of a personality.

How much Front wheel spin and squeal before the car actually starts to roll?

[toesuf94]

A Toyota that I like? Satan just tossed a snowball at Saddam's ass!

The end is near!

Oh wait...the inside is horrid. Never mind. False alarm!

The outside IS 1000% better than the Camry and does have character. Imagine it would look great in the standard Camry colors: Parking Lot Beige, Split Pea Green Metallic, Shopping Mall Gold, And my all time fave: Shopping Cart Robin's Egg light blue metallic.

[Intrepidation]

This is the Camry with different front and rear ends correct? It would make a good MCE...no budging lights is a good thing.

[Camino LS6]

When I saw this:

Toyota Australia launches TRD ...

I was imagining a dogpile and a catapult.

[deftonesfan867]

Well it seems like I might have another kill on my list when I get a Holden

In Asia with a 4-cylinder this is a Camry.

No Fly, Grand Prix GTP. Supposedly this is a Prodrive (Aston Martin, Subaru rally cars, FPV etc.) effort, not a real Toyota Technocraft (TRD) design. Toyota Australia licences the TRD branding and gets Prodrive to do the performance mods.

Except without the fancy bumpers and ground effects, the Aurion is Ambien CR on wheels.

See what I--ZZZZzzzzZZZZZ

Come on man, don't be so mean, I though that at first, until I found out it's only available in an automatic

So, not good competitor to the G8 I'm sure you'd perfer this over the Camry we get.

[FAPTurbo]

Meh.

[Lamar]

At first glance, that looks just like the ES350.

At first glance, that looks just like the ES350.

or a late 90's mazda 626, LOL!!!!!!!

[ToniCipriani]

For one thing it does look marginally better than the eyesore Camry we have here.

Seriously though, I think this would be better than the Avalon that is sold here.
