Nickcats,

Shhh..... Don't tell her. Thanks for the link, I went through the configurator and it looked to me like you had to get the L to get that feature. Looks like you could order a car and get it on the standard wheelbase model.

I like this car a lot.

The japanese have a great formula for their cars. Let the Germans or the Americans develop the technologies, copy and refine the technologies, and then try to make the consumer believe that they invented the technology.

Interesting that the parking assist appears to be "their" baby, and not a knock off technology.

No surprise there, Toyota will soon be the number 1 car company in the world, their products have evolved far beyond what I outlined above.

Now, can they move beyond appliance to driving machine?
