It was put up there on purpose since pics will eventually be posted in the near future. Vote when the pics come out.

The 2004 looks pretty nice. Certainly looks like the SC430 from the back. Anyone know the specs on the 3.3 liter V-6 in the pictures??? Must have more HP than the 3.0.
Toyota is good at keeping things under wraps!

i think the gen 1 looks sleeker (and better), but i think i could get used to this one real fast
(and i love the interior)

Guess I just needed to read more to get the specs. 225 HP and a 5 speed AUTO. That should have some good performance. Don't see a 5 speed manual mentioned. Also says they made a lot of changes to the geometry of the front suspension. Maybe no more Wheel Hop problems?!? The new "Sport Package" sounds great too. Wonder if the manual is still available?

I dont really dig it that much. It seems to fat. Like a big honkin mecedes fat. Not so sleek just my opinion though

heh oops, im at school and didnt really look for them thnx though
btw its ugleeeee

the front is alright maybe change the grille a bit, but the rear just totally kills me

those lights bleh

The months and months that we've all been looking for spypics... and it's finally out. It's not even a big of a redesign as well all thought! It's definately an interesting design. The rear totally looks like the SC (takes time to enjoy haha) but the front grill =x The look is ok, but the shape of it is weird to me...

The interior w/ the aluminum stuff is nice! but I think I'll hold off my 2nd car purchase until the 2.5 comes out... it may have a better front end, although, it's not too bad as is

I see they do come read the forums... hahaha The rear emblems are now balanced! Same Emblem/Solara placing, but with "TOYOTA" and model grade on the bottom left, and bottom right, respectively.

BARF.

Tiburon. (meets ES300 in the front)

Man, that's not gonna come off my shoe too easily...

by **Jaimster** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 8:37 am

Rear = Tiburon/SC430
Front = Matrix/ES300

The interior is alright...I guess.

The pictures make the car look small, I guess I'd have to see one up close.

Boy the Nissan/Honda boys are going to laugh at us now.....
