Toyota's "Party Mode" Button:

Sounds like it has variable vane or variable geometry turbo. Depending on rpm, throttle position, boost and whatever other variables, the ecu can make the exhaust housing act smaller to spool the turbo just off idle.

I still prefer my Audi 200.

completely agree. I wish it were embraced more by OEM's.

This would have been better if it were actually funny.

I'll give up the V8 sound for some torque, the I6 will supposedly make around 80 more ft/lbs (around 370) than the S65. The V8 just didn't have enough grunt for a ~3500 lb car IMO.
