Im kinda a fan of the new Aurion (mainly because I own a V6 Camry so naturally rate Toyotas)... most powerful V6 around now with 200kw yet being the most fuel efficient. Its already won a couple of awards placing it as Australias best large car, tonight the Wheels car magazine unveils their best car of the year, in which the Aurion has made the top 3! For anyone remotely interested, a coupla things I have seen or read about it...
Review of the major V6 contenders in the Australian market:

This takes a while to load, but its a 400m sprint between the Falcon, Commodore, 380 and Aurion :

Pic of the Police Aurion, not sure bout other states, but QLD is going to be using them:
And then theirs the TRD Aurion:
^
Thats is the sports concept, which the TRD is expected to look simialr to. Its expected to have at least 230kw. Its release has been delayed, and RUMOURS are that they are going to make it AWD... mainly because Mitsubishi released their supercharged 380 recently which didnt go down to well with Toyota, being prity similar with the TRD car. If it does come out in AWD, that will be one SWEET car imo, finally a car with abit of grunt in the AWD format... would certainly worry a few people at HSV and FPV!
