Oh, and a price no longer under $30k, too. Very much that more luxurious look and feel than the way they went with the RS 1.0.

I mean, I get it, if they want to sell more units, they'll have to soften the car up for people who can't deal with some road noise and a good jostling over imperfect roads. To those folks though, I say buy a used IS, or even an ES, and let the sports cars stay sporty.

Nothing wrong with some fancy bits only. I wouldnt pay the extra myself but obviously people did and have been given how long they made RS tCs. Its not any softer then the regular one handleing wise so it isnt not sporty. The more twins they sell the better imo
