Hello Brian - welcome to Toyota Owners Club. The first and second generation Caldina were related to the Carina E and first generation Avensis respectively, but Europe doesn't have a direct equivalent to the third generation (2002-2007). Pictures would be interesting.

The third generation has its own platform . ries 3 GT Fours have the st246 prefixand the N is the hardcore model . It has a different N bodykit , front and rear torsen LSDs , sequential tipronic.that learns how you drive ( allegedly ) .

It also has different suspension to the standard GT Four which is lowered and improved (according to toyota). Also has a recaro interior and a few other bits

Welcome Brian - nice choice of car there :)

The Caldina is one of my favoured cars in GT5, so I'd imagine it's a hoot to drive ?
