Arrival of my Brand New 07 SE V6 - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

***darksparkz*** · 04-22-2007, 10:12 PM

Just got my order of a 07 Black SE V6, it came with JBL, leather, moonroof, spoiler, VSC, carpet trunk set and cargo net. Picked it up yesterday, drive 30 miles home, runs great. No rattles, no weird tranny flare shifting. The built date on the sticker on the side of the door is 04/07. Everything looks great and fits fine. Got home and started detailing it, noticed a bit of swirls and marks on it. Thats weird because the dealer said the car arrived the day before I came to pick it up, so I guess their automated washing machines are quite rough.

My car actually had HIDs in it, I didn't know that SEs came with them, fog lights were there too.

The only thing I wish I had was the QB package which is the auto dimming mirror and compass and the garage links. I know I could always buy the mirror and add it myself though.

The raido and A/C lights look weird at night, the colors off with the rest of the car.

Mods that I'm planning to do is in-dash navigatioin, speakers, and tints. I'll of course do the whole LED light ordeal, with license plate lights and such.

No HID's bro, unless the dealer added an illegal aftermarket kit, which I highly doubt. Congrats on the ride though.

Hm, yeah at first I thought it was just projectors with regular bulbs, but I saw a pretty good cut off line. I'll look for the ballast and check again.

Price was about 2$9k OTD, a bit expensive, but its all good.

Congrats man. If you want to do a HID conversion, the best kit is from XenonDepot because it uses Phillips components entirely.

Yepp... anything you do to alter the headlights of the vehicle is illegal. The halogen projectors in our cars do have a nice cut off line... but it's no HID. Trust me... it's not HID.

Maybe in Canada, but not in the US. My SE V6 didn't come with it either. It was a seperate package and my 'incoming' car that I added things to couldn't get that port installed so I installed it myself after delivery.

Dark: I don't know how much taxes and stuff are where you live, but I got my SE V6 a year ago with everything you have plus Nav, XM and Remote Start for $30k OTD. It was $28k before TTL.
