But why? What's the point? To get a little extra gas mileage? Some quicker low end acceleration? I thought the whole complaint was about how underpowered for its weight it was. This just serves as a backwards decision for this model. Unless they're purposely trying to make just a cheaper and more affordable model as an entryway for younger buyers. Thanks, but no thanks. Looking forward to my RC 350 when it comes in.

Its a less powerful, cheaper model. Think IS250 vs IS350. The 200t is going to replace the 2.5L V6 in the IS250 too.
