Need help identifying a car! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

So I was driving home from work the other night, and I saw what appeared to be a brand new white Toyota sedan, but not sure what model it was. I say brand new because it didn't even have a license plate yet, it just had a temporary one hanging off the rear bumper.

I'm 95% sure they were Toyota badges, and the shape was similar to a Camry. So why do I need help?

Well, the tail lights on that car are the reason. They had the same light bar shape (or very similar shape, don't remember exactly) to the Audi RS5 headlights, but obviously the light bar was in the tail lights, and it was amber in colour.

I can't seem to find any current Toyota vehicle, not even if I look outside of the sedan models that resemble anything I saw that night. Any clues?

new Corolla?

sklimo · 09-27-2013, 04:22 PM

Corolla??

kALMIGHTY · 09-27-2013, 06:05 PM

Nope, not the Corolla, or the Camry, or the Avalon. Those were the first three I looked at right away, but can't seem to find a match to the tail lights I saw.

Maybe it's not a Toyota, similar badge shape-ish?

Shagaliscious · 09-27-2013, 07:16 PM

Ok, so you're saying the taillights looked like those headlights?
