This topic might have been discussed before when the gen 7 first came out, but I ain't seen it so here goes.
I thinks it's ok, it's a Toyota after all so it's not going to be bad. Its reliable and solid like all Toyotas and has got decent performance. But.... I really couldn't live with the car's styling. Too angular for my taste, a bit too sci-fi inspired. The back espescially doesn't look too great. I like my cars curvy like the gen 6. I have to say that I am getting used to the styling now it's been around for a while but can't say if I'd ever buy one. IMO

Something like that. Because of the variable valve timing (vvti) engines they need to be revved very high and kept at the high revs through the gears to use the power effectively. -------------------- Facelift bumper-foglights-clear indicators, clear side repeaters, 16in O.Z alloys, stainless steel grill.
