I don't want to be negative, but I can't see it lasting.
The Camry/Aurions are global cars where the engineering, design, testing were done in Japan and all the cost's associated with it are atomized globally, yes there was local tuning, but most good Auto makers do local tuning. It doesn't cost Toyota Australia anywhere near as much to make a Camry as it does Holden a Commodore (and they still made a loss), scary stuff for the Auto Industry.
