This to me speaks to a much larger buyer demographic for this particular car than those wanting an extra mpg or two at all costs.

They did with the performance pack and TRD edition later on. Roll stuff out slowly to get people to trade in and upgrade older editions. The dampers were also upgraded in MY15 also, as an in between to the PP dampers. Brand new car will have some room to grow and develop.
But like you said the high percentage going aftermarket do just that, go aftermarket. It's usually cheaper then OEM and better tailored to individual use.
