    2010 Toyota Aurion: Restyled Nose, Upgraded Spec Levels

    “New model-specific front bumper designs are the most obvious change, while a wider grille and trapezoidal lower intake freshens up the Aurion’s face.

    Chrome-framed foglamp recesses also feature on the Prodigy, Sportivo and Presara variants; headlamp and tail-lamp lenses are also new for 2010. ”

  8. Who thinks about the Aurion while u got a V8 powered RWD monster?

  9. I already liked the CSV CR8; now I hope they will continue in making a CSV CR8 series II, and maybe even in Tourer configuration. Would be my ultimate (LHD)car, and will certaimnly buy one and bringing it back to my little country called the Netherlands.
