I had a 2020 for a year, and now I have a 2021. A List of Different Stuff.

[LaredoHK]

The stuff the media has already said:

1. It is faster, you can feel the power.
2. The steering/feel/chassis improvements the media mentions are real.
3. The crackle and pops in the exhaust are less dramatic (i miss the crazy sounds)
4. The 2 Strut Bars are added.
5. Brakes have Supra Badges

The stuff I have found:

1. The buttons on the steering wheel have been mirrored. The cruise/radar type buttons are now on the left side. Volume and media stuff is now on the right. (I don't like this change, I liked cruise stuff on the right because I am right-handed)
2. There are some buttons on the rearview mirror, I don't recall there being any on the 2020.
3. The window buttons on the driver side door feel further forward.

Huh? #1 and #2 are still same on the 2020...2020 has cruise on left and volume /media on right side...Also 2020 mirror has 3 buttons underneath for programmable garage door....

Considering how little I use the cruise, I prefer the media like it is on the right, I change sirius station way more often than adjusting the cruise. I don't think the windows buttons would have moved, BMW does not change the interiors that quickly.

Haha given his errors in observations I can't trust his review lol.

Do you agree or disagree that rear end stability is improved? I've seen it mentioned in either the context of heavy acceleration (which you're more likely to have experienced), or braking from very high speed (less common situation). Sometimes called bump steer but there's some disagreement on that.

I have a 21, feel some wiggle, not sure if it's "the issue" or just traction control allowing a bit of fun. My prior rwd cars didn't wiggle as much.

I wonder if the quieter exhaust is due to it not being broken in yet

No its tuning.

Ya I was worried about that, they actually decreased the pops and bangs for 2021? why would they do that, what a shame, loved the 2020 exhaust

Buy a 2020... tune it... Strut Brace... problem solved

No its tuning.

Different manifold also

Happy with my Launch Edition, my sights are now set on the one and only the LFA which would be my first Lexus but I'm working to make that happen next.

I think you can just swap the steering wheel and go back to the previous iteration, at least that's what I discovered when I swapped my steering wheel for Red.

Exactly what I did on my 2020.. JB4 and Burger front brace. That JB4 extracts crazy power.

Which maps do you use on JB4? Have you had any hiccups with it?
