Does seem to depend on which of the modes you put it in, which makes sense TBH.

Yeah, I'm wondering if that's the track mode with the 50/50 split. I can't see the 30/70 doing that, if it did that would be alarming.

Fun fact the last MR2 spyder was 25.2k in 2005 which if you adjust for inflation is $33,577. Now with the addition of a turbo 3 cylinder vs a N/A 4 cylinder I can see a 3k premium. It was the cheapest MR car next to the Fiero that America has ever seen.

Actually, they really enjoy driving base Yaris. Wished for LSD & better tires. Other than, they didn't have anything to complain about.

Many years ago a friend and I picked up a Toyota Starlet from a car hire place in Adelaide. We went up to the Adelaide Hills which is a place of the few twisty roads in South Australia. I was driving, laughing my head off, tyres squealing around every bend. I continually braked short because the car was so light. It was a riot.
