I don't need to keep up with a Mustang GT, but I would like to not get beat off the line by a RX350 hauling the whole family.

How do you think I'd feel getting smoked by my gf in her RDX?
They're talking like it's going to mutate this car into a 1976 firebird (my first car lol) by adding more power to it. BS. It already has a good diff in the rear, a good f/r weight ratio in which you can just move the battery to the rear if you're that nuts about it to help offset a little of the weight. The car will be more exciting, playing with the throttle is going to give you more tailout fun or pull you much harder out of those turns. We know it, Toyota knows it, they're just trying to save face at the moment.
