Toyota’s latest desperate marketing tactic is a Gundam-themed Auris, perfect for would-be Char Aznable Gundam fans, or those who merely want a rather stylishly designed ride…
The “Char Aznable only” edition was shown at CharaHobby 2012 – needless to say it is not likely to become a common fixture at Tokyo showrooms, although stranger things have happened:

Since it red it's three times faster then a regular Auris.
Only when it's speeding away. On approach, the violet ones are the faster.
it looks like a red turd
Physics reference ftw.
Does this come with a Masked Driving Helmet?
Hell yea, 3 times faster!
They should include Char helmet
Excellent choice for picking up lolis...
But only brown lolis.
You mean 30% faster, right? Char's Zaku was only %30 faster then regular ones.
That was what they retconned it to. Originally it was 3 times (300%) faster than a regular Zaku.
Since it's red it could be spared by the Chinese.
is it an ork vehicle then, since "red goes fasta"
it needs moar dakka
Should have put a mono eye rather than a Zeon Logo.
I want a mustang Shelby Cobra customized paint job like Ozma Lee's VF-25s from Macross Frontier
Do you want fries with that?
yes please, a fry dispencer in the dash, im guessing the engine cooks the oil for them? then reuses the vegi oil as fuel.....actually I might have just come up with something there
don't forget triple cheeseburger and supersize it bitch
Well, his car is Lancia Delta Integrale, so Shelby isn't a good idea.
my money, you can have it
How many Lincolns go in a Toyota?
Abraham Lincolns? 2 in front, 3 in the back + 1 Mitt Romney in the trunk.
Where's the j-list/playasia link?
Finally, a marketting campaign I can get behind.
Wonder if they should advertise the parts as being developed on the international space station for lulz.
The metal used to make this vehicle can only be refined in space!
buy life insurance.. u might get attacked by the white one
i see what you did there...
dont you mean black one? cause everyone knows the white ones wait untill they are attacked before they do anything.
If you do not buy it, it will be one more act of youthful folly to regret. Right Char?
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE!!!
You don't need to know with a gem like that. Standing infront of it, posing, is enough to make everyone around you horny!
I'd rather have a scale model of it.
It also comes with a commander's horn. Yep, this is the genuinely article. Do want.
red comet here we go
I would almost buy one of these. If only someone like Mazda would do this.
oh man I would so love to drive this baby around town. of course no one here knows what Gundam is, or even anime for that matter.
Oh, wow! When we thought Toyota can't get any worse, they suddenly announce this. As shitty as a regular Auris, plus it looks completely gay.
All of the "cars" that Toyota makes since 2003-2004 are shit, and they don't seem to learn from their mistakes. I seriously LOLd when they blamed the Gran Turismo series, claiming that young people don't buy their shit because those games are so realistic they don't need a real car. Epic fail.
(No, don't mention the GT-86, because it was originally proposed by FHI, and is essentially a modified Impreza.)
Oh, and I wonder: will it come with sticking pedals, or they need to be ordered as an extra option, with added cost?
Speak for your fucking self.
Their cars have always been reliable to me for many years.
And since when reliability is a special thing in a Japanese car? They are all reliable, this is their strongest selling point. Being reliable is not enough if they plan to target younger people or car enthusiasts, but instead of designing cheap, fast, and fun to drive cars (just like they used to do for years), they complain about these people not buying their shit.
I love Japanese cars, I had many (including quite a few older Toyota), and I still stand my opinion: this is not a car, this is a piece of shit.
And I'm fine with my Mazda, even if they are in trouble, they're still able to make enjoyable cars.
Looks cool, I'd buy one if they release it in the US.
A gurren lagann Nissan GTR Would be better, Give it gas get a drill up the ass, Come poke me in the butt!!
I think it's awesome.
And not just because it'll attract younger girls...
Now you can go ride inside Char.
Wow that didn't sound so hot.
Okay I already want this car.
This car for tranny
...A tranny more badass than you ever will be!
Besides the marketing ploy I have to say they did a cool job on this. The paintjob is fucking excellent with that semi-matte metallic paint.
I'll buy this.
does it come with chinese repellent?
On the contrary. It's Japanese and it's red. It will actually attract hoards of Chinese.
