Unfortunately with the cost of fuel here I am going to have to go for the diesel.Its still good for 135mph and 0-60 in 9.3 secs so its not completely gutless.

The main things in a car, for me, are that is have fair gas mileage (30 mpg minimum) and decent pick up, in case I have to change lanes fast. Looks are less important. I think the car would benefit from red or black.

I agree totally. Well, mostly, at any rate.

Gotta love that Toyota powered beauty. though I would actually use it on the track, not just daily driving. Things get great gas mileage too.
