    I would question the legitimacy of info in that article seems a bit hokey "deeper exhaust note?"

    I love my '14, but I wouldn't mind a 6-speed auto and the "infamous" heated mirrors.:D

    Agreed, probably bogus, even toyota said new drivetrain right?

    by "new" they made the drivetrain plastic :laugh:

    I would be surprised if they did not put in a v8. However, if they do go the v8 route think they will offer a different transmission compared to other engines?

    Or just build 1 with different gear ratios?

    I agree. "narrow scoops" and a "well-sculpted hood." I doubt they saw either of the parts under the camo or the teaser pics.

    I really doubt a new v8. They're all trying to compete for fuel economy... Hell ford has a new twin turbo 4 banger :eek:

    as long as toyota has 1 (or maybe 2) fuel efficient packages they can rock the v8 no sweat because a v8 won't be the only engine option.

    Maybe the aftermarket parts will become cheaper? Just a thought, didn't it do that with the 1st gens when the 2nd gen came out?
