Is it just me, is this bloke either really small or the Yaris has got really big?

Its awesome and hilarious that this is a real thing that has happened

They probably asked VW for their MP3 cabin audio file from the Mk7.5 GTi.. ie, it sounds a little artificial :/

It's a Toyota thing. Their seatbases always seem oversized It probably contributes to the office chair ergonomics in their fridge spec models. They're Japanese, expected I guess. Gotta prime the employee for the office!

So if this thing comes out can I turn off my automatic alert for GT4 ST205's ?

[yohoes]

Yes, this is the new hotness now

So when is a suitable time to go to my Toyota dealer and say that I’m serious about wanting one? We’ve bought a couple cars from them so they know us. Would need a small deposit I guess...
2020 is going to be a long year waiting for them to come out!

Friday 27th December sounds like the time to try.

Hah. Might at least wait until the ‘official’ launch on the 10th Jan. Just unsure if they’ll even know what the he’ll I’m talking about...

Yeah i know what you mean. Doesn't hurt to ask though.

So more details come out this week for this thing. Hoping they finalise the power/torque/weight, show some interior pics and give a good indication of performance figures. Not expecting the indicative prices to be given just yet.
I even saw an ad for Toyota during I'm a Celebrity last night (the nopics was watching) and was expecting this to be a part of it as it was linking all of Toyota's racing efforts (WEC, Rally, Dakar etc) to their road cars. But alas, nothing there.

That ad was also playing during the cricket. That would be a much better explanation than ‘it was the nopics that had the remote control’ excuse

The Japanese video posted earlier in this thread had a good run through the interior, be interested to see if Toyota Aus downgrade that in any way: https://youtu.be/zHuagkhlKqM?list=FL...5GUsN5TTw&t=83

[23Kev]

Not much to downgrade apart from the seats I guess. Apart from them its pretty standard kind of fit out I guess, I've seen that same screen on the standard Yaris interior. https://media.caradvice.com.au/image...lu6j2jwhzt.jpg
Anyway, bring on the 10th!
