Barbie-fy your new Toyota with car accessories

If you've been living on this planet, you're probably aware that the new Barbie movie is about to hit theaters and make Millenials worldwide take a deep dive into nostalgia. And with the movie has come an endless parade of pink... well, everything. It's never been easier to live your best Barbie life, and our Orlando Toyota dealership is taking things up a level - check out this quick list of parts and car accessories to Barbie-fy your new Toyota before you hit the road! 6 car accessories to Barbie-fy your Orlando Toyota #1: Pink seat covers. Investing in pink seat covers is dual-purpose - not only will it create a vibrant pink vibe inside of your car, but it'll also protect your car seats from wear and tear. Car seat covers ward off harmful UV rays that can dry, crack, and fade seats, and also protect them from staining and other forms of damage from you sitting in them. You can even find covers for the backseat, too. #2: Pink cup holder coasters. Bringin your Starbies along for the ride and sick of spills and condensation accumulating in your cupholders? Try out a pair of cupholder coasters. They're designed to absorb moisture and protect your vehicle's cup holders from long-term damage... and they're pink. Every time you pick up your drink you'll get a flash of your fav color. #3: Pink steering wheel cover. Another dual-purpose car accessory is a steering wheel cover. There are endless options when it comes to pink, and not only will it up the ante for your Barbification, but also protect your steering wheel from the sun and your hands. It even has a third purpose - things heat up in the summer in Florida, and a steering wheel cover will protect your hands from a hot steering wheel when you get behind the wheel. #4: Pink license plate frames. When you buy a car at Toyota of Orlando, we hook you up with a sweet free license plate frame. But if you're going the Barbie route and want something with a little bling and a whole lot of pink, check out the endless pink license plate frame options on Amazon to customize your ride on the outside. #5: Pink push button start ring. Make yourself smile every time you start your car - consider a bedazzled, pink ring that goes around your push button start button. No matter where you're headed, you'll have a little Barbie in your life when you get things up and running in your Orlando Toyota. #6: Pink floor mats. And just one more car accessory that's pink AND useful - floor mats. Pink floor mats (especially if paired with pink seat covers) will transform the interior of your car into one worth a Barbie road trip, and they also protect the floor of your car from sand, mud, moisture, and dirty shoes. Visit our car accessory and parts store at Toyota of Orlando All of these car accessory options are easy ways to Barbiefy your car without having to shell out a ton of money OR time - and if you're in the market for even more pink accessories, contact Toyota of Orlando today! Our Toyota car accessory and parts store is open seven days a week at (407) 298-0001. You can also stop by and shop in person at 3575 Vineland Road, just off I-4 near the Millenia Mall.

Toyota GR Supra Lego

Have you gotten your Toyota Supra Lego yet?

Have you gotten your hands on the new Toyota Supra Lego collectible yet? This toy - if you can call it that - even comes with a Lego driver that fits neatly in the front seat. Whether you're a Lego collector, a Toyota GR Supra aficionado, or just someone who wants to brainwash their kids into liking cool cars, the Toyota Supra Lego car is for you (and don't forget, Father's Day is just around the corner). Why does a Toyota Supra Lego car even exist? Lego is all-encompassing - you can find everything from Harry Potter castles down to basic bricks and blocks for creating custom designs. Lego also houses a large collection of iconic cars in its wheel house, including autos like Land Rovers, Porsches, Peugots, Ferraris, McLarens... we could keep going, but you get the idea. The cars features in the Lego lineup are both old and new, and each one has to be iconic to be featured. We think the Orlando Toyota GR Supra fits the bill. Did you know that there's actually a life-size Toyota Supra Lego car in Japan? It resulted from a collaboration between Lego Japan, Legoland Japan, and Toyota Gazoo Racing to celebrate the 35th anniversary of this icon. It took 2,400 hours to build, weighs 4,156 lbs, and consists of 477,305 Lego bricks. Additionally, the entire thing is made of Legos except for the wheels, driver's seat, steering wheel, gauge cluster, and badging - those are all Genuine Toyota Parts to give it a more lifelike feel. As a result of the Lego construction, this model is a bit wider than the original Toyota GR Supra. This incredible Toyota Lego Supra can actually be driven, believe it or not. It has an electric drivetrain and can reach speeds of 17 mph. It also was the spark that ignited the idea for a miniature Toyota Supra Lego car. Here are some quick facts on that: You won't need to worry about stepping on 477,305 pieces - this particular Toyota Supra Lego car only has 299 pieces. It sits 1.5 inches high and is six inches long, and is 2.5 inches wide. You can fit two Lego people inside - one driver, and one passenger. The car comes with a driver complete with a safety helmet, Toyota racing suit, and wrench. What makes the Orlando Toyota GR Supra worthy of becoming a part of the Lego lineup? But what makes the legendary Orlando Toyota GR Supra worthy of Lego honor? Here are some of the specs on the new model that we think make it live up to its hype: The 2023 model has two engines options. A 2.0L Twin-Scroll Single-Turbo Inline 4-Cylinder engine that gets 255 horsepower and 295 lb-ft torque. This allows this new Toyota to get from 0-60 mph in 5.0 seconds flat. A 3.0L Twin-Scroll Single-Turbo Inline 6-Cylinder engine that delivers 382 horsepower and 368 lb-ft torque. This allows this Toyota sports car to get from 0-60 mph in just 3.9 seconds. Your choice of both a six-speed intelligent manual transmission or an eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and manual mode Launch Control and a direct-injection fuel system A top track speed of 155 mph Active rear sport differential Adaptive Variable Sport Suspension Brembo 4-piston fixed-caliper front disc brakes Are you ready to put the 2023 Toyota GR Supra in your driveway? Want to have your own Lego-worthy sports car? Visit Toyota of Orlando today to check out the new 2023 Toyota GR Supra. We're open seven days a week at 3575 Vineland Road just off I-4 near the Millenia Mall, and you can call us at (407) 298-4500.

new Toyota trucks

A 2024 Toyota 4Runner preview: What we know so far

If you've been paying any attention at all, you saw that the 2024 Toyota Tacoma has been completely redesigned. We're talking bumper to bumper, inside and out. Taco enthusiasts are thrilled, and the unveiling of this redesigned truck has sent the internet swirling into speculation about the new 2024 Toyota 4Runner. The Toyota 4Runner is an absolute icon in the off-roading world - it's durable, capable, rugged, and yet still a comfortable and connected truck that allows for comfortable real-world driving, too. It's due for a redesign - there's no denying that. The fifth and most recent generation has been rocking since 2009. It's time, and we think Toyota knows it too. Our Orlando Toyota dealership is here with a 2024 Toyota 4Runner preview to share what we know so far. Here's our 2024 Toyota 4Runner preview Here's what we know about the 2024 Toyota 4Runner so far: We don't have an actual release date. We were thinking 2024, but here's the thing - ANOTHER part of the internet is vehement that Toyota is going to bring back the iconic Toyota Land Cruiser sometime next year. We know nothing about that but if it's true, it could push the 2024 Toyota 4Runner preview back further. Production could shift to North America. Typically, the 4Runner is produced in Japan. However, we see Toyota shifting production to North America more and more, so it's not out of the question to think that they might shift the Toyota 4Runner production here, too. It may have a different engine. Right now, this Orlando Toyota has a 4.0L V6 engine. However, we're consistently seeing Toyota downsize its engines (the Toyota Tundra and Toyota Sequoia went from V8s to V6s, for example). We could see the new iteration of this Orlando Toyota shifting to a new 4-cylinder with turbocharged capabilities - specifically, the turbocharged 2.4L inline-four that's in the new Lexus NX 350. It gets 275 horsepower and 317 lb-ft torque. We could also see it offering a new hybrid drivetrain. We think the Hybrid Max powertrain in the current Toyota Crown is a strong contender - a 2.4L hybrid system that produces 340 horsepower and 400 lb-ft torque. It'll definitely have an updated design inside and out - we're thinking a brand-new look that's similar to the new 2024 Toyota Tacoma, as well as an interior that's more ergonomic, has modern styling, and has new technology. The MSRP will likely see a slight bump, but we're willing to bet it'll be worth it for all the upgraded tech + performance features. We don't think an EV is in the works. We haven't seen any full EV versions of the Tacoma, Tundra, or Sequoia, so we're doubtful one will appear in the redesign of the 2024 Toyota 4Runner. Get more info on the 2024 Toyota 4Runner today with Toyota of Orlando Have questions about our 2024 Toyota 4Runner preview? Think you might want to see what the current generation has to offer. We can help you either way - visit Toyota of Orlando today. We're conveniently located at 3575 Vineland Road, just off I-4 near the Millenia Mall. You can also call us at (407) 298-4500.
