When you drive an automatic you can have an "oh shit handle" on the driver's side.

Jokes aside, it was probably put there to replicate the MKIV's cockpit, wrap-around feel for the driver.

Am I the only one who noticed, between all the pictures recently posted, that the car has two fuel caps, one on both sides?

The other option is a plug-in hybrid version. Toyota has made a point of talking about how they want to rebrand hybrid technology, eliminating the boring personal associated with models like the Prius. They want to take Tesla’s approach to electricfication by marketing hybrids as performance models. The first example of this (I believe) was the Toyota Rav4; the hybrid is the most powerful and fastest version. Like the Holy Trinity and cars like the Acura NSX, the hybrid could be the top spec, showing what the brand car do with hybrid technology. Just a guess.

Looks good - now let's hope there's a crazy surprise on Monday (i.e. a limited run M/T production just to shut up the haters - they'd sell out in 5 minutes). |
