Ever heard of AVALON?

- Toyota do gain engineering knowledge from their F1 investment. Their claim is that their motorsport engineers had input into the 3.5 litre V6 inreasing the airflow to the cylinders. Also the underbody of the aurion has been designed to reduce drag.

Do you hear them saying that? No. What do you hear them saying? the CAR is inspired by Formula one. You obviously haven't seen their advertisements, where they fade away the Aurion sedan to reveal an F1 car.

- The ZR badge has been used by toyota for a while and hasnt been ripped off Ford.

It's a rip off. The same way Holden stole the Ford theme.

Toyota doesnt owe Ford and Holden anything.

They owe them an apology for lying about 'not being invited to Bathurst' in their TV commercials. They not only lied, but attempted to degrade the image of V8 Supercars.

Dont hate the player hate the game.

Lame

Their marketing department hasnt done anything more devious than is usually expected of a car company

No, the Aurion really is a 'game changing' F1 car, that will change big "Aussie sixes" forever. A Japanese Camry is more of an "Aussie six" than the Falcon or Commodore ever will be. AND the Aurion wasn't invited to Bathurst because it is an F1 car, Australia's motorsport series just can't compete with this super Aurion.
