Just noticed this, but the TRD model appears to come with the same BBS wheels as the Gazoo Racing car from the VLN race.

Nailed it :)

The legs belong to the guy taking the pictures. It was a cell phone camera, it took pictures in a landscape format when held vertically. The guy stood to the side of the manual so that the pages would fill the frame.

^ this is the guy that took the pictures

it wasn't staged, it was a cellphone, in another article he was getting his vitz serviced when he took the photos.

The 16s are steel wheels, just get some nice 16" alloys, although nice tire selection is a little harder to find..

I was thinking of buying the low spec and modding it to my own taste but damn the TRD version might just be perfect for me... was really hoping not to spend 30K+ on this

Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, Volt meter

ryridesmotox 11-15-2011 05:15 PM

I vote for, oil temp, oil pressure, trans temp. If I do get this thing, I'll be installing those anyways... and if those come on it... I will only need like 2 other aeroforce gauges to monitor anything else. lol.

Ditto... WoW...not to add work to your plate, but I'm looking forward to your awesome data/fact sheet being updated soon, once everything pertinent has been gleaned.
