The team is currently leading the German Procar Championship with a S2000 spec Toyota Corolla T-Sport for its driver Philip Geipel.

Although no official comment has been made by the team, initial tests with the new model have reportedly been favourable. Final aerodynamic adjustments are expected to be made before the car is put through some serious testing ahead of its debut in August.

    no racism here.

    Yeh, its a hatch and the handling should be compromising good enough. Just that the downside of the car is it’s a bit ugly looking. The face is like someone just consumed 2 oranges and stuck on each sides of the cheek with a small mouth opening. Haha.

    lol.. look at the rim color.. at least spray the same white as the body color lar… the white color makes the rim looks like taiwan rim

    Its a WTCC car. You think any turbo/SC Jazz can take it on track? Its wide bodied. It has increased track, major weight reductions and god knows what kind of engine and race mods that go in it. U need a track Jazz to beat it, not some street moded stuff.

    I agree that most toyota nowdays are god damn ugly. Big gaping grille and weird sculpted body.

Got something to say?
