Toyota Confirms £24,995 Starting Price for UK

[Craikeybaby]

The nav system is Denso from what I've seen, the same as other Toyotas (Denso are also owned by Toyota).

25k in the UK converts to 30K in Holland. However all the websites are talking about a entry price of 40k.

in 2013 the last part of the extra tax we pay dissapears. Maybe i will be importing one, not from the UK ofcourse cuz of of the wheel being at the wrong side.

i wonder if the aero kit is the big wing

those options sound reasonable though

[joe]

Aero kit is big rear wing, side skirts and front.

they are going to get back to me with a list of the options available in the central ordering system - the guy i spoke to has been sent to actually see the car and have training regarding it

first UK cars should be arriving end of May/June there will be a launch event for it

hoping to get around 2-4 cars per dealership per month

I'll ask about how we get trd parts too when he calls back


UPDATE:
The kit doesent look like its an available option to the uk due to them thinking nobody will be buying it - looks like it'll be somthing that we weill have to get the part numbers for and order in

Thanks for the update, I'm definitly getting excited now!

Not offering the Aero kit is ridiculous. Surely it cant cost anything to have it as an option and then if only 10% of the buyers want it then everybody is happy.

[Infernal]

yeah - i think it's a bit daft - considering how well the trd wing on the supra does, the gt-4, gt pack on the last gen celica it seems common sense that they should offer it..

unless of course they are reserving the aero kit for a turboed version (i can only dream)

The manager of my toyota dealer is attending a "toyota lunch" tomorrow to find out more, so I assume I will be given this info soon. It seems they have increased the price over other models for leather and sat nav.

As for 0-62 in 7.6seconds!?! WTF thats a bit on the slower side! At Geneva they were saying 6.9seconds! I know a reviewer recently posted a 0-60MPH of 7.3sec because it hit 59MPH at the rev limiter in 2nd. Motor Trend got 6.5sec probably by ramming it into gear without using the clutch!



Thanks for the update
