Hhahaha you'd think it would be a good idea to take viewer from the page with counter to the actual launch site, but nope, it would be too simple.

Now this car has sidepod winglets but without a mirror mounted there, wasn't this banned?

That nose is half of a meter shorter than the ferraris one
and its damn ugly....

I might the angle, but it looks even more out of proportion than F-60..

I was going to say quite the opposite... I reckon she's the best looking 09 car we've seen yet.

Funny, too me it look far worse than F-60 on the promo shots. And those are 100 betters than on-track ones.
The engine cover seems quite small, as the minimum area is regulated is the car then quite long?

I suppose its a good thing the Toyota sites are A - not working properly and B very slow for their normal site.
At least there is interest in their car.....

Not a very pretty car. I wish they would change the livery a little bit.

The sidepods look like the 2006 FW28 Williams. And the nose looks like the Arrows/Super Aguri one of 06. Maybe it will be fast. :\
I actually quite liked the '09 front wing until I saw TF-109...AWFUL
These '09 cars would look so good without those God-awful front and rear wings
still, I guess we don't have to worry too much about the front ones..they'll all be gone by the first corner of each race anyway

The car looks quite good for a 2009 car
I like the livery. Not because it's anything spectacular but because, from the pics in this thread, it helps emphasize on certain areas/in a certain way, which may be negative, but nonetheless distracts me from looking at the less appealing bits. I mean, looking at the side picture, I can't even see (white on white) how ugly the nose is. OK, maybe against tarmac it'll be different... Or i can just pchop a black background in there.
But so far so good then!!

Real plough of a front wing - more-so than the Ferrari. Funkey end plates and the side pods looks very well sculpted.

For some reason, this car doesn't look as bad as the Ferrari. Maybe I'm getting used to the new looks already, or maybe I just don't care as much about the looks of the Toyota as I do about those of the Ferrari. It's probably the livery that is hiding the wings somewhat.
Regardless, Trulli is setting the goal for the first six races quite high with his talk of that long overdue first victory. It'll be interesting to see if they can live up to those hopes - I wish them the best of luck!
