Do they put a real handbrake in the model for Europe? Or only for manual transmission?Or do they change their mind, and put a real handbrake for all?
The foot parking brake is a big no-no for European market, I think. I am grad they put a handbrake.

The rear lights are LEDs. Not sure if the turn signals are. In the GS, the brake lights are LEDs but not the turn signals.
i don't think they look LED at all

Could it be the supposedly built-in shift indicator as mentioned in the Edmunds review?
