Can you special-order the RWD in Canada?

What's weird is the significant price difference between the 300 and 350, considering there is no difference in the const of manufacturing!

This is going to kill the IS350 market.. They are identical cars except for the ECU..

Someone needs to release a tune, piggyback or try to flash an IS350 ecu.
