Wow that place looks like a lot of fun, too bad Canada never gets that kinda treatment. One question though, those rims, you said they were different from the ones from the initial revealing? I cant really tell the difference they seems quite similar.

One other thing I noticed is how small of a tire they fit onto that wheel. Look how much the tire has to stretch to fit the rim. I bet this had to do with avoiding the GG tax. I bet slapping on a couple 275's would make it perform much better.

Those are the hand polished two tone wheels.

I'm hearing it's pushed back to Spring 2008 because of the recent earthquake in Japan which damaged a building of one of Toyota's large parts suppliers. Toyota's production at all their plants which is causing the delay.

Ah man, I was wondering what kind of impact that would have. Thats too bad, but if you look on the bright side. Maybe that will give them a couple of extra months of testing to get all of the bugs worked out!
