Video: TRD going through a workout…..
It is more exciting watching cars drive past the front of my house!!
Yes it was a tad boring, like a shopping trolley slab look to it. Looks a tiny bit better then average, dare say it will struggle with all the power and FWD
LOOKS DAMN GOOD.
This car would be a quality, refined, powerful yet comfortable cruiser and is certain to develope it’s own following.
Each report i have read on the TRD has been good making referance to it’s powerful surge, braking capacity and dynamic involvement of which as has taken many motoring journalists by surprise.
Toyota has undoubtedly developed the most driver involved FWD layout in the world and is highly probable that TRD will set new benchmarks for such vehicles.
I believe this project will not only survive but grow in popularity.
Blah,just when I thought I was getting a good note out of it it turned out to be auto and changed up ? I personally would like to hear a manual one full noise.
Although some may mention it in the same sentence with our other muscle cars in Aus I don’t agree! Yes it may have some grunt but its still a six ,you wouldn’t call any of the I6 M3s a muscle car would you ?
I still does nothing for me. It appears still inferior to the Commodores and Falcons. TRD will not have the cult following with the likes of HSV or FPV even though they would like to. Its a great first attempt but still along way to go…and also asking too much $$$ for so little. Wouldn’t you just buy a Clubby or F6????
Shane, NO i wouldn’t buy a Clubby or F6.
Commodores and Falcons do nothing for me because thier questionable quality, relibility issues and under-performance brakes( HSV’s are prone to fade prematurely) make these cars undesirable to me.
However, the TRD Aurion will address all of these problems while torque steer has never been an issue to me because of my exposure to FWD platforms.
Exactly… at the end of the day both these vehicles aernt markted for the same audience anyway, Ford and Holden offer your muscle Toyota offer the refinement, you must consider that its not always about power and handling, although we all want something that handles ok (Im sure the TRD Aurion is good enough) most of the time your not testing your cars capabilities anymore then a Corolla owner does.
