    I think it looks good. Naturally not everyone will like it but I like the aggressive lines and projector headlamps. I really like the recently updated Tundra grill but thought it was just too big to look good. This addresses that. Of course, will have to see the whole thing in context before I make final judgement.

    I think this new taco grill in comparison to the size of the truck is bigger than the new tunrda

    It doesn't look that way to me on new spy pics with tape on the grill. Ground clearance looks about the same as current Tacomas. I still think it looks better than dough-ball Colorado.

    No, it looks nothing like this photo-shopped Tundra

    Can anyone tell if the side paneling is carry over or not? The access cab looks different for sure but having trouble telling if the double cab frame is carry over or not

    Headlights look good. Glad to see projectors being the standard. Is that an LED strip around the projector at the bottom and up the side I see or just a glare? From other spy shots though I dunno if I like the contours on the hood. Reminds me of the Dodge Ram.

    Edit: Never mind on the hood. First picture I saw was on my phone and the angle made it look that way. Does look similar to the 12's and up though.

    Looks so good from what I can tell.
    Wonder if the grill will fit on my 13'...

    They fixed the trailering harness hook up location at least.

    Its looking like the bones will be the same on this new Tacoma. Just new sheet metal/interior/engines. I guess that isn't all that bad.

    doesnt meant they are standard, lower models may not have projectors. Yes those are LED accent DRL.

    Everyone is assuming there is no hood scoop on it, but there is a big tarp over the hood, I think there is a hood scoop under there. They're not going to get rid of it. I'ts a big selling feature for them despite the fact its purely cosmetic.

    If projectors aren't standard by now then WTF Toyota? My wife's 14 Rav4 base model came with projectors why not all Tacomas?
