So, still having a proximity key, but having this as an option, say, if you forgot your key, is good. Those teenagers you mentioned, they’ll never forget their phone, but they might forget the key. Make them take the extra time to unlock the car.

I have a Toyota Smart Key and I’m never going back to the old ways.  I walk up to the car and touch the door handle, get in and press Start.

I seriously don’t understand this love affair with keys. Like, I appreciate the physical, visceral aspect of it, I definitely do. But I love the idea of not having to worry about a thing to interact with to make my car work, or to accidentally leave behind in it. Something that can just stay buried in my pocket and…

There is no purer, simpler, or more wholesome pleasure in this world than putting your keys in the ignition and starting your car.

I’m convinced that people on automotive blogs think that anything not sold in the U.S. is automatically cool. This “thing” is hideous and would be torn to shreds in this comment section if Toyota used this design for the Sienna.

Can we play generic sedans as well, or generic pick up trucks, generic minivans, generic vintage cars. generic race cars, generic dump trucks ... ?

Southern guy with roots dating back there to the 1700's and with ancestors who fought for the confederacy. Time for the fucking flag to go. Nobody in my family flew it or displayed it. Growing up it was always the most racist pieces of shit who had those things. The people displaying them now have absolutely zero clue…

It’s strange to me that people think this is a special case or some type of injustice.

Neutral:

“On està la botiga Target?”

I watched the whole release video.

All right people! We have a shadow of a new car, so you know what to do! Let the “It looks just like a... It’s just a re-badge... I hate screens... It’s not a manual” comments commence!

Slideshow? uhh... I see the usual scroll to the bottom.
