HOW TO ENTER; METHOD OF SELECTING WINNERS:
THERE IS NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN AND A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR ODDS OF WINNING.
To enter the Contest online, you must first register as a member on the Twitter Site (which is free). Once you are a registered member of the Twitter Site, you must sign up to follow @Toyota. During the Contest Period, a Corolla x Miku question will be posted on the @Toyota Twitter handle - tweeted by @Toyota. To enter the Contest, tweet your answer to the Corolla x Miku question via @Toyota. The first 4~5 people to answer the Corolla x Miku question correctly will win the stated prize. The database clock of the Twitter Website will be the official time keeper for the Contest. Limit one (1) submission per person per question.
Sponsor may run multiple campaigns, contests, Contest or other promotions simultaneously. Entry into one (1) campaign, contest or Contest does not constitute entry into any other. All Entries that are in excess of the stated limits, late, illegible, incomplete, damaged, destroyed, forged or otherwise not in compliance with the Official Rules may be disqualified from the Contest at Sponsor’s sole and absolute discretion. Use of any automated or other system (e.g., creating fake or multiple Twitter profiles) to submit Entries is prohibited and will result in disqualification. Sponsor reserves the right to void all Entries made through any robotic, automatic, mechanically programmed or similar entry duplication method and to disqualify any individual using such a method.
In the event of a dispute as to the identity of any Entrant who submits an on-line Entry, the Entry will be deemed submitted by the holder of the e-mail account or IP address, at Sponsor’s election, of the Twitter account holder who submitted the winning tweet. The “account holder” is the person assigned an e-mail address or service by the organization responsible for assigning addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. Winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder. If a dispute cannot be resolved to the Sponsor's satisfaction, the Entry will be deemed ineligible.
Sponsor and affiliated entities are not responsible for lost, misdirected, misplaced, stolen, tampered with, deleted, or invalid Entries.

Sponsor will have complete discretion over interpretation of the Official Rules, of administration of the Contest, and of selection of the Winner. Decisions of the Sponsor as to the administration of the Contest, interpretation of the Official Rules, and the selection of the Winner will be final. If, for any reason, more bona fide winners come forward seeking to claim a Prize, the Winner may be selected in a random drawing from among all persons making purportedly valid claims for the Prize.

The parties will split the arbitrator’s fee; provided, however, if applicable law requires Sponsor to pay the arbitrator’s fee in order for the arbitration provision to be enforceable, Sponsor shall have the discretion to elect to pay such fees and proceed to arbitration. Entrant irrevocably waives any right to bring or join in any class action regarding the Contest. Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This arbitration provision shall be deemed to be self-executing, and in the event that any party fails to appear to any properly noticed arbitration proceeding, an award may be entered against such party notwithstanding said failure to appear. In no event shall any Entrant seek or be entitled to rescission, injunctive or other equitable relief or to enjoin or restrain the operation of this Contest (or any website connected therewith), exploitation of any advertising or other materials issued in connection therewith, or exploitation of this Contest (or any content or other materials used or displayed on the Contest Website) or the Entrant’s Entry.
