I'm driving mine. Leave the nannies on unless you have a specific time you need to turn them off (when the weather is bad). Bad weather is the reason they're so common in the first place.

I do the same thing. I also keep the seat closer to vertical than I did with other cars. No discomfort at all, even on long drives.

The other cars are sold around the world as Toyotas. Not all are available in Europe/Japan, though.

EDIT: Just looked on Wikipedia, they're all sold somewhere else under the Toyota brand.

I should look into that, but the development tends to be really strict about just about anything like this, so it's probably not an option. I'll reread the lease to find out though.

Sports cars are known for slowing down after a year or two. I don't think this one will if they keep it fresh, but it's something that happens to nearly every sports car after some time.
