Some are going further than that... the Lyriq is only offered in black and light-black at this point. It will be interesting to see on 05/19 when they open up orders for the non "premier" editions...

It's only a limitation from the back, since you can put things in the front and stack it up. We haven't had any GEN2 examples yet, but lots of examples of what you can get in a GEN1 here...

All the cars are awful. If they are going to build these things they should commit to making parts that help make a car look like a car.

Geez, a little over a quart of oil (1 Liter) is considered "normal" every 1500 miles? If I had a car using that much oil, I'd be in a panic.

But wasn't the MR2 technically t-tops, not targa?

Not a big deal, except its another point for leakage. You'd almost be better off having an optional single piece soft-top on it. It is nice to...

Interesting that the Targa is two pieces. I'm guessing its either for storage in the back, or weight to remove. Don't think I've seen one done that way before.

Yea, I realized that afterwards, although if the owner has proof she took the car without permission, that company (and owner) probably wouldn't be a productive path.
