Well I have good news for you, Toyota is ahead of the curve w/ EV tech for once!

Simulated manual shifting, including a clutch. As many upshifts as you like, live the F&F dream. Reportedly even simulated stalling!

Actually, new plaid can do launches at similar speed and time all the way down to low battery.

I'd love to see an edit of a F&F movie where all the engine sounds are replaced my EV noises for the lols.

Actually maybe I wouldn't, BMW already tried to bring back The Hire short films with an EV and it was pretty dull, it really doesn't work.

How did this pop up? Did someone in the wait list turn it down?

I've been on the wait list since March 2022... Secretly hoping for a model year with a rear wiper.

I heard that the wait for a fully loaded model is really long, whereas if you want something less optioned, you won't have to wait as long.

Probably a couple factors due to the wait list being shorter than expected.

- Everyone who was remotely interested in an electric car placed multiple deposits hoping to get an allocation.

- The new EVs are well north of 50k for a decent entry level trim. That a lot of interest to be paid

- Adding on to rising interest rates, some people would rather focus on their mortgage

- Increase in production

Just got an email off saying the Lexus RZ has a $10,000 discount - $6k from Lexus Canada, and $4k from BC rebate (if you qualify).

I took one out for a spin recently and was surprised how nice it is. The charging tech and range is behind the competition (150kW charging rate, 350km range), but these factors are less of a problem for the average Lexus buyer in the lower mainland that don't drive long distances. The rest of the car is built well, quiet, comfortable and well dampened. It's a lovely everyday city car for the average Lexus owner in the Lower Mainland shuttling kids and travelling shorter distances.

I've gone Plaid!

Just picked my Model X Plaid up and had to rush to pick up the kiddos as ICBC's system was down all morning and instead of the expected 20-minute in-n-out pickup with time to spare for groceries, errands and then pick up the kids, it turned into a 2hr+ wait just for ICBC's system to come back online.

Damn this thing pushes hard. I thought the Model S LR loaner I got pushed hard already. But this is something else. It's not much different than being in a roller coaster when one floors it.
