Post newbie TL-S question

I just got the TL-S brochure the other day... made me drool all over my desk. =)

Anyway, in the brochure it describes the side mirrors tilting when you put the car in reverse. Can anyone please elaborate on this? As in what exactly happens during the process and how it makes parallel parking easier? Thanks guys

When you put the car into reverse the passenger side mirror tilts down so you can see the curb or the parking lines.

... and you have the ability to either have this feature enabled or disabled.

I have done the most perfect parallel park with this feature! Don't know how I lived without it before!

When you move it out of the reverse gear, it automatically puts the mirror back to the way you had it before.

Those who know, don't talk.

Yeh, it was a feature I knew the car had when I bought it but you cannot truly appreciate it until you use it in a tight spot or near curbs; it is a HUGH plus! I would be very surprised if other manufacturers don't start to include this feature.
