Probably doing emissions testing since our state is very strict and takes months to get approval. That way if thereis an issue it will give them time to re-map the software below 35 mph.

All I'm saying is I wouldn't overlook it. I'm very much interested but will wait until more information is released. It seems to be the Tokyo motor show where lots of questions will be answered.
