TRD goodies for the Toyota Blade Master
Click for photo gallery
No big surprise here, but the Toyota Blade Master hasn't even finished its first cup of coffee in Japan's Toyota showrooms and TRD is already standing by with accessories. In addition to the selection of appearance upgrades available since the Blade's launch, TRD has released the Ver.S performance muffler and a TRD Sportivo suspension kit consisting of shocks, springs and stabilizers for the V6-powered hatch.

Yeah first time I saw it and I was like M35 head lights. Then again I am a Nissan Fan so I might be bias.

The front headlights look like they came straight from the Infiniti M

The Toyota Blade is what appears to be the latest model Toyota Auris hatchback in Europe, which also retained the Corolla name in New Zealand and Australia with only the headlamps changed on the Blade. The Auris/Corolla was designed in Toyota's design centre in France, and is usually fitted with engines ranging from 1.4 litres (we have the 1.8 in NZ). The Blade distinguishes itself by having much larger engines than the garden-variety Auris/Corolla. Its sedan version, which doesn't share a single body panel, was designed in Japan.
