Default who's car still has a cassette player?

saw a review of the GS450h and they implied the car still had a cassette player, so I'm wondering -- how many cars still have cassette players in them???

SC430 = Yes. Even the 2010 SC430 will have it.

Monster 1100 = No. I just sing whatever comes to mind.

Every single vehicle I've had thus far has cassette... and what I have right now:

1992 GS-R - did come with a cassette player, but swapped out for a single CD player about five years ago (FINALLY, after 12 years).

1999 RX300 - YES, and we USE IT !!!

2004 LS430 - YES AGAIN !!!!

Wish one of them had an 8-track, been meaning to rotate those tapes again after about 25 years....

Are cassettes even sold anymore? Not even trying to be funny, I just don't pay that much attention...

Interesting the RX has it, but the Sienna doesn't, I wonder what the reasoning behind that is.

GS450h-yes
RX330-yes
MDX-no

I actually like the one in the RX because I use it for the iPod, and the one in the GS was actually used for an audio tape one time...
