I replaced a 2017 with a 2020 and noticed the tire noise's absence but not a steering quickess or feel degradation. How many parts would need to be changed to do this? I imagine some of them have a long lead time, followed by calibration.
I think that it's a very small change, reducing that angle may traduce in a major understeering at high speed, but also in a more uniform tyre consumption, due to the more "aligned" to the road tyre position while driving straight forward.
There should be no difference between the 2 cars in normal driving, it's more a racing thing in my opinion, but when it comes to a born to race car, it may be a problem for some users

I'm glad to hear this, I would hate to see this cars personality diluted to appease the whiners
I do not think the Ackerman angle affects straight line alignment. It alters the angle of the two front wheels relative to each other when the steering is turned.I think that it's a very small change, reducing that angle may traduce in a major understeering at high speed, but also in a more uniform tyre consumption, due to the more "aligned" to the road tyre position while driving straight forward.

Wait until you discover the ejection seat.
Maybe that option requires or explains the auto-shatter sunroof?Wait until you discover the ejection seat.
Open valves in Dynamic Mode on a 2020 QF is a mixed blessing. While it's great that I can roar around with the nannies on, I noticed that the exhaust valves do not open in N Mode. I actually thought the valves opening at around 4k rpm in D mode on my 2018 sounded super cool. I was hoping my 2020 QF would do the same in N mode. It doesn't, the valves don't seem to open like they did at 4k rpm. That makes me sad...

Open exhaust valves in "D" mode and as soon as you turn the dial to "D" mode at any RPMs happens in 2019 QVs, too. I though open exhaust valves only happened in "D" and "R" modes in the QVs.

The QV has an N mode?
Yeah, the wife will only ride in the QF if I leave it in A Mode. In case you didn't know, it also has an A Mode....

So far (owner of 2 weeks) I have learned... I can not get a full tank... At least in the US the auto flowback shut off hits and I have to slow squeeze it to get to 2/3 of a tank otherwise all I get is 50% full...
Oh and that this post is long but I did read all 79 pages.

Fuel filling is a common problem. The easy workaround is to either tilt the fuel nozzle sideways or only squeeze the trigger about half way.

Get it back to the dealer, there is a real fix other than the workaround suggested above. Has been a commonly reported issue.

Wow thanks everyone,
Weirdly no one mentioned it in this monolithic thread... I was about to schedule a dealer visit cause my cup holder won't close all the way.
I'll ask about the fuel issue as well.

This thread is not generally about issues, it’s more a gee whiz, didn’t know that worked like that. Do a search on fueling or refueling and you’ll find reports of the issue and fix.
