Talk:Toyota Sera

message: Okay I've reverted the two engine capacity changes. The first one, changing 1.5L to 1.8L seems wrong. Everything I've read about Seras (including the engine plate on my own) lists the 5E motor as 1.5L capacity. Just can't find anything suggesting that it's a 1.8L.
Oh and on the second change, if there's one thing the Sera ISN'T, it's a 6.8L beast. :) Ozlucien (talk) 17:39, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

message: I'm sure I've heard this style of gullwing described as 'butterfly wing', but a quick google search finds no references like this... If anyone else has come across the term as well, is that evidence enough to put that term into the article proper? :)

replies: text: I've always heard of it as "beetle-wing" referring to the way the carapace of a beetle folds up and forward to reveal the wings underneath. But a search on that phrase now only seems to find aftermarket rear-spoilers for the VW Beetle. This sound familiar to anyone else? Ozlucien 06:38, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Door Title

message: Ive got access to a japanese EPC there you can get the date of manufacture from the chassis number. Chassis numbers from the Sera are in range EXY10-0001001 - EXY10-0016942 (so the overall production should be 15942).
But i cant find a way to verify this data to others
here is a list of production per month, perhaps someone can verify it?!

thread_title:  Production 

message: and myself have a disagreement over whether the Sera.jpg image (see right) should remain in the article. He is quite right that it is blurry. My argument is that the blurriness is unnoticeable as a thumb view and not too bad in full resolution. The photo demonstrates the special opening feature of the doors better than the other photo with a single door open. The blurriness is only distracting for the number plate and the Toyota emblem on the front - both of which I can tidy up with an image editor. Comments?  Stepho  talk  00:45, 21 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Blurry image 

message: Something for discussion... the top photo was changed a few months ago by User:Charles01. The reasons for the change are good - it's a cleaner photo without a distracting background. However, it means the article is now without a photo displaying the most notable feature of the Sera - it's doors. I don't see any particularly good photos on  which both shows off the doors, and is clean. Does anyone have one they can add to the pool, or have a different view on this?

replies: text: This is what happens when I have a think, and then a forget for 9 months. I didn't propose any specific replacement. I hoped someone might have one... but I've since remembered that a friend took some photos of my Sera many years ago, and explicitly gave me permission to wikipedia them. I'll dig them up... :)  .../NemoThorx (talk • Contributions) 06:26, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
