I rarely ever speak French. Stupidest reason ever. They should have either brought the price down or included the 5.8". So then whats the reason for not including shift knob on Automatics in Canada? Doesn't have colorblind support?

The people at Toyota Canada have to be the biggest idiots ever. I ran into a problem like this on previous vehicles, one I was paying the same price as the Americans but it didn't come with heated steering wheel. They said it wasn't included because customer trends didn't want it. I'm sorry but people in Texas could want this feature but never use it, and I'm sitting there freezing my hands off.

And a even newer related story which has brought me here with you fellows.. I was waiting to get the new 2014 Lexus IS. I was looking into getting a F-Sport RWD, but in Canada, because of the silly packaging they chose, you cannot get a RWD Lexus IS250 or IS350 F-Sport that comes with features I really wanted like Mark Levinson upgraded audio, or LED headlights (not referring to the DRL strip). Other features you couldn't get on F-Sport RWD were Seat memory, Rain Sensing wipers, Ventilated Seats. That's horse****. Plus they ended up raising the starting price $3000+ so I walked across the street to Scion and found out about the 10 Series.

Sorry for rant.
