Oh yeah! Early cars don't come with it. I forgot, sorry! Yeah, there is no manual parking brake level like normal cars used to be. It's electronically controlled. If functioning correctly it engages the parking brake when you put the car in park and shut the car off and disengages when the car is on and you put it in gear. Automatically. Kind of cool, when it's working.

Not as satisfying, though, in the 'handbrake power slide'...

How amazingly juvenile of you to say.

I completely agree! ​​​​
