Oddities I've noticed after 1 day of ownership.

1. Came with a block heater, weird that they would add that as a standard feature. I guess nice for the guys in Minnesota and Alberta don't know who else would use this.

Weird!
My wife's new Toyota is similar, LED lights on the entire car, even in the glove box. But, I think they may choose to use incandescent bulbs because most LED lights used in automotive have poor CRI, so if someone were using the dome light to see how they look, the incandescent works better, LED can skew how you see skin tones.

It's literally the only 2 incandescent lamps in my wife's car. I doubt it's to be cheap.

That said, I have 4000K Diode Dynamic LEDs in my Q60. I don't look at myself in the mirror, so I don't need high CRI lights

You may need 5000k if you pick up chicks and they come in your car from the club lol

There was a complaint somewhere about while shifting, their elbow would scrape across the center console lid release. They said it was annoying. Do you also find that to be the case?

I'm 6'1 and seat is almost all the way back when the armrest is open to access both cup holders yes my elbow hits the front of the armrest when shifting. When the armrest is closed no problem my elbow rests on top of the armrest. It's not a big deal and drivers sitting further up will probably not even be affected.

Is the armrest soft or hard?

04/22 dealer said they were waiting for screens in the factory to complete the build, but I don't know if that's the reason or what I've read about the transmission hold.
