There's no such thing as "way too many options", but no the US never gets nearly the same treatment as the JDM, so you don't have to worry about "way too many options".

I thought the led headlights looked sharper...I hope the U.S. gets the led headlights I think it looks much better with them

Honda and Nissan would be dumb not to! Imagine if Honda made a RWD coupe, that would be so awesome!

Omg I'm loving the 3 gauges I'm probably gonna get them even if they don't tell me anything useful.

On another note why didn't the person taking these photos use a scanner or a HD camera.I have a feeling he did this with his cellphone camera when nobody was watching.

^ exactly, in the blog the guy was getting his Vitz serviced and found the staff manual in the shop while his car was in the air, and snapped a few shots really quickly.

Im not complaining about it, but from a financial point of view(to Toyota) it doesn't make sense to develope them. I mean seriously, how many people actually buy all the factory options like the ones available for the TC? Some of them are unnecessary, like the door insert thingy, that so few people will buy them. And you gotta admit, sure we're excited over this now, but you know almost everyone will go aftermarket once it's available. Remember greddy, apexi, AEM, eibach, and all the rest of them? They sell more than the car company does. So yea, way too many options here

The more a read about this car, the more I want it.

Great find. Looks like we have already gleamed a little new info out of all this.
