So? Why would people buying the cheapest possible model care?
Remote start is a luxury feature. Just ignore the subscription offer like a luxury trim option.
It depends. What else is included in that subscription? Mirror and seat heating by any chance?
Can you buy a Toyota that isn't always online? Because having remote start available, subscription or not, sounds like you can't.
Remote start isn't a luxury feature unless you also classify remote unlock as a feature. Toyota (and many manufacturers) used to use the key fob to also start the car but they disabled that so they could charge for it as part of the subscription.
