Not much has changed. Mercury Metallic is now gone.

That website isn't really affiliated with Toyota is it? If it's not, you can't trust any of the info on there...

I was hoping for the spindle grill refresh, but I could wait for the next gen

a lot of companies are going turbo for the fuel efficiency, but I'm not sure Toyota is going that route. Turbo has potentials to make a car more unreliable.

Sorta like this BMW M3 VS IS F thing...5.0 V8...6800rpm redline, 416hp...or 4.0 V8, 8400 redline (or somewhere around there), 414hp....the BMW has to work so much harder to make that power.

In the photos provided, the seats are leather in lieu of the alcantara. Maybe they are using an old picture or have they gone back to the original seats?

Solid white is a new color that will replace star fire pearl, that will be an awesome color. Would hate to buy a 2013 then have completely new model come out next yr although I personally think the F won't change for another 2 yrs. I def think the tt v6 will be the engine in the new gen model as much as I don't like it seeing as BMW is going that route with the new M3
