I havent seen it first hand, but I assume there is a little button behind the handle.

Just like every other Toyota with this feature that I have seen.

I doubt that it will auto lock once the key is out of range. most likely you would have to press the button (apparently inside the handle) to lock it.

I assume proximity key means door handle button, so we can unlock/start the car without ever getting the key out of the pocket/purse.
But from the pictures I have seen, it does'nt look like there is a button to unlock the car.

I appreciate any input from those who has seen the car. thanks.
The button is more a touch sensor, identified on the handle by 3 little lines grooved into the plastic.

Its exactly like the new Lexus systems, all touch, no button.

^^^I want to confirm what 1stone said, its not an actual push button, but more of a touch screen idea.

Haha I was too slow again!!

But yea, the three grooves are all touch. If the battery dies there is a traditional key inside the remote that will open the doors and you hold the receiver against the push start an you can turn it on.

At least I have pictures!!!! Lol

got a call from my dealer today..... no RS 7.0 for me until 2nd or 3rd week of september.
PA is getting it this week, and NH is getting it this week, but why is boston not getting it until mid september?

Guess I have to adore my 05 tC for another 4-5 weeks

I know I want mine so bad!!! Lol yea i have seen a lot of the new stuff, but I want to get the car and actually start to learn it wrote I pull the trigger. It will definitely be lowered very soon. The more I think about it the more I want to keep it a TRD car. I might stay with mostly TRD parts. We will see!

Haha im not sure lol. If the dealer says I can take it today (money won't be there till Monday) I am not sure if I will. If something happens to the car I would rather it happen when it is at the dealer and not in my driveway. But who knows we will see what this afternoon brings, I will update as soon as I know!
