Mitsu Would Like A Car Like TOYOTA'S AURION - Page 2

Got my Aurion AT-X back in Dec and whilst its has a great engine and 6sp Auto, the handling is a bit off with what feels like soft springs but very firm damping which results in too much body roll and a stiff choppy ride at 60km/hr.
The boot space is much less than a falcon and you can't put the back seats down, you caan poke a pair of ski's through a small hole in the back seat( I don't own ski's and I wouldn't swap my snow board for this reason.

Another reason why there is delay times is because Toyota is busy making shitloads of the lower models (like AT-X) and not enough of the models like Prodigy and Presara which are high in demand due to the newness of the model.

Camry is beginning to free up, but Aurion is still a little hard to obtain.

Sportivo in either Camry or Aurion shouldn't be hard to source..

Now we know why it takes 2 to 3 months to get an Aurion.

Around 10,000 will go to Kuwait and NZ.

This cant supply more Aurion because of Carmy OS and local demands are BS. Simply put those that can afford a performance car would rather a V8, those that cant get a V8 would rather a Ford or a Holden.

Well your wrong and I've said enough already.

What the? The current American Avalon is a totally different looking car to the Aurion. The U.S has the Camry which the Aurion is based off, but the Avalon is bigger and different car.
