They're different spec and drive type. Not entirely sure how it works but I think we would need to be looking to secure allocation from the Japan, UK production.

Its a double edged sword at the end of the day. Great for Toyota publicity on one hand, but long lead times are a buzz kill. Its really just the first time in recent history it has happened to Toyota. It happened to Volkswagen for Golf GTI, R, Scirocco and Polo GTI. Even Tiguan and now Touareg.

We can't lose sight of what Toyota has created here. Name another cast that had created so much hype, and then knocked every competitor out of the park with super sharp pricing. I can't think of one that did both so convincingly.
