looks a lot better then the currant camry. if its got more power but the same or better handling then it wil be a FUN drive. the currant camry is actually a pretty good road car

Yes Toyota Aust want to catch with Holden and Ford as they dont think the camray is up to those standards anymore (the camrey was supposed to be the commonwhore of toyota...but it kindda didnt happen)

actaully the avalon was supposed to be the direct competitor, the camry one step down....

3.5l supercharged, I'd say its bound to have more power!

I'm wondering what sort of drive train that its got. Would be nice for it to be 4WD, but I'm guessing will probably be FWD...

And it actually does look very snazzy.

From the pic that Mr.Phreak posted, I thought "watered down 300C", but the one on the website looks heaps better and more original.

Is it just me or does it utilise a few Mazda 6 styling cues.... But yeah, I like. Just wish they'd make it RWD...

$10 says the production model of the Sportivo will be much more watered down

Looks very nice. Rather have that than the similar Holden/Fords...
3.5 supercharged, you don't see that often from factory

to be honest I rather a 4 litre turbo.
or 3.5 litre!

by **vvega** » Mon Feb 13, 2006 11:19 am

wonder if the motor will fit into a mr2 or caldena

Kinda looks like Toyota's take on the new Beemer M5...

Yea, but the downside is that the F6 weights near 2 tonne!!

Still hauls though!

Inane wrote:or 3.5 litre!

It IS a 3.5 litre! With supercharger to boot!

Looks mean, if they made it RWD they'd sell it by the boat load.

by **Undertow** » Tue Feb 14, 2006 10:24 pm

Powerful FWD lump. Look at that guy, looking all proud like he designed it. Haha. Lump.

Didnt toyota sell SFA of the avalons, and then were flogging them off to taxis for less than the cost of a echo?

by **Mr Revhead** » Wed Feb 15, 2006 11:20 am

dunno about in oz, but they sold like 50 here
