will it get to production do you think?

[Zz24hours]

We love it ;-)

.. but it has been posted before, maybe thats why no comments were written

'bout time if Toyota decides to put this into production and ships it at Europe

After the Carina E GTI, avensis don't have any "hot" version

[Zz24hours]

Sorry .. is Carina E GTI a hot version? :-D

Personally I've never found the SGE engine impressing .. except a long gearing

Celica CS and GT4 .. aren't they actually the most fun Toyota have produced for Europe :)

Yes TTE did a good job on the V6 Bi-Turbo Avensis but it's a real shame TTE go to lots effort developing these Turbo kits to show what can be done but Toyota-Europe at least seem little interested in selling the parts.

[Zz24hours]

In my opinion TTE should start by making a more professional website ;-)

The current site looks less then most of the small import-businesses overhere

Carina E GTi.

1992-1994

158cv@6400rpm

1994-1996

175cv@7000rpm

And it wasn't a hot version?

Hear in Portugal existed the Carina E GTI Trophy organized by Portuguese Toyota, maybe for that reason i love it

[dawesy]

No, seriously am not impressed, take a look at "lb-ft" .. practically identical with 3SGE (it is the same on the 133hp version I had).

I'll admit that the 175hp have a nice 0-60 time, but can't find the 156hp specs - don't think its much better then the 133 3SFE which does 0-60 in 9 seconds

Well I like the look of the Avensis sports Tourer and would love to see it being build in Derby.

Would do Toyota no harm at all to have a performance version of the car, does anyone remember the howls of laughter when Volvo entered their big T5 estate in Touring Cars? One of my mates now drives a V70 T5R and nobody laughs at him, come to think of it not many people can catch him either. Toyota should consider a high performance diesel too, Ford have the Mondeo ST TDCi, but unlike Ford I would bet that Toyota would product a more understated less in your face vehicle.

Also just look at Honda, makers of cars for your Granny and Grandad, and their Type R cars.

I am just waiting to take delivery of my sensible Avensis D4D T-Spirit hatch, nice spec'ed family car, but I would have really considered a sports version.

Toyota will have 150 and 180hp D4D's later this year ;)

In Denmark they should be priced about £1.900 higher then the current D4D - that being after the Danish car-taxes (180%)

for f##ks sake toyota build a car like this with the type r evo 8 and wrx,s toyota are not with it .dont they realize the british publics love of hot jap motors .

just look at the subaru in all its versions . it,s now the most popular afordable super car available, far out reaching the old favorite the sierra and escort cossie

so come on toyota give us a hot toyota .

something with 2.5 litre and twin turbos would be a good start

What he said! I would have jumped at something with a bit of punch. There wasn't any, so I went for (almost) the cheapest instead.

The Avensis has - I think - good handling and would suit a sportier powerplant and lowering/stiffening. Something for dad's (or mum's) that don't always have the nipper in the back! ;) And I really like the idea of a "sporty" diesel.
