Default JDM vs US LC

After coming back from Japan and picking up my LC, I've noticed quite a few differences between the vehicles. The US market gets a little ripped off..

1. No headlight washers
2. No SD card slot for media
3. No Blu-ray disc player (DVD only US)
4. No TV tuner
5. No dash cam option
6. No $1700 floor mat option

North American/USDM always gets the short end of the stick.

$1700 floor mat option? What is that?

Floor mats that won't get your gas pedal stuck.

That's a shame. Seems like it would be easier and maybe a bit cheaper to just make some of those standard like the DVD/Blu Ray and washer nozzles instead of changing for different markets.

That sounds a pretty good list of stuff missing from the U.S. version.
