Six second quarter mile with wheelstand (even more impressive when you consider it's a front wheel drive)

Basically Toyota are releasing a special Camry that will make it to 10,000 km's and doesn't leak oil, blow head gaskets, consume heaps of oil and overheat, it will be the first time in Camry history that such a model will be offered to the general public.

It's pretty amusing though, considering the XR8 next year will be reborn with the same spec engine as the FG GT, could you imagine being a HSV owner forking out all that money on a brand new GTS, then pulling up to the lights next to a FH XR8 and then sitting side by side all the way to 100 and beyond
Even more embarrasing would be the lower spec variants of the VF in HSV's stable getting whopped by a factory XR8.

Sounds like it'll be purely cosmetic. They should have gone an AWD TRD.

Medication dispenser in the dashboard.

GPS with all the nearest medical centres clearly displayed.

Stereo that makes an applause sound if the person parallel parks in less than 10 minutes.

Extensive sound-proofing to prevent distractions from drivers behind that have had enough of being stuck at 35km/h.

Driver's seat that reclines fully to allow a nap at traffic lights.

Sounds like a way to get rid of extra parts as production ends. Easy one to work out there. There are too many stupid people in the world. I'm not saying we should kill them all or anything. Just take the warning labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself.

Asian-market taillights and new colours would send the Aurion off nicely. Maybe that's what they will do..

Good for Toyota, I'm sure they will find happy homes. The current Aurions are quite a decent car. Certainly not lacking horsepower. If the suspension was a little firmer and the rack a little faster, they might have been a semi-enjoyable drive. Not that your parents care about that kind of thing.
