That's pretty much it, nothing special. Maybe in the next gen ,if there is one, they may offer something to compete with the new miata. But adding radar cruise and all that would require things like an electronic parking brake and stuff like that and that would honestly effect the driving dynamics of being a "drifter" machine. Unless they could tie it to the stock handle
The wife's Impreza has the Subaru equivalent to this. I call it the "Distracted Driving Package". Some of it such as the active cruise and back up movement sensors I really really like. Could do without the lane departure and "vehicle in front has moved" warnings though. Don't know about the Toyota package but at least hers allows you to turn off each thing desperately so you can pic and choose what you want.
The biggest drawback so far is the thing is massive and takes up a good chunk of windshield real-estate. When it makes a difference in that massive chunk of glass in the Impreza I can't imagine what it would do to visibility in the FRS
Had a couple of people say it looks light lights in a cop car.
