The new Aventis and the Auris are real loosers. Toyota, you have a problem!

The Auris/Corolla is only slightly better looking than the Prius. But i'm still not a fan of it's "who ate all the pies" styling.

Other than the IQ, I yawn every time I see a Toyota. Seems to me like Toyota are catering to people who have given up on life or at least settled for average. It's enough to look at the color palette of their cars - you can have any color you like, as long as it's in a shade of gray.

Haha! "...given up on life" Well, not just the looks... I've driven a lot of Toyotas; they are just so dull to drive! Bit like attending a boring lecture.
