The voice command is interesting. Any source that I can refer to? I am curious on how the system is set up, whether the system needs to have to be set up to recognize certain voices to be effective etc.

Put it in car terms, I'd want to be driving a stick shift rather than a paddle shift because I am more "involved", not just in terms of controlling the car, but having to think far more ahead forces me to be more aware of the situation as well as my decisions. I guess the logic doesn't apply to avionics. When the…
I guess another way to describe it is "old school"?
Question: How does it compare to Soviet jet fighters? The SU-35/37 seem to be quite a beast.
So an entire parade of Lambos showed up and only gave ONE kid a ride? Seriously? If the whole neighborhood of kids each got a ride in the Lambos, that will not only make the kid his day, but probably the rest of his childhood as the most popular kid in the neighborhood!
Awesome! Let's pull the hand brake and do some drifts!!!! Oh wait, you will just become an unstoppable hamster trapped on its tumbling wheel. Still, funny though!
May be it's just me, but Aston Martin has lost its appeal, the kind of WOAH and admiration and finesse when James Bond "reintroduced" the brand with the Vanquish. Ever since, they all look the same to me, in a bad way, that they don't stir up more emotions nor has the intricacy of their designs been elevated. To me…
Ok there's all these buzz about P1 vs 918 and it's quite obvious that the P1 is the faster car. However to me, the 918 is the more successful car. Put it this way, anyone can make a really fast car hybrid or not (Look at the One:1), but to do it with 78mpg? THAT'S GROUND BREAKING! So let's think about "win". McLaren…
Was he just trying to be sarcastic or was Jay "heel and toeing" without a clutch pedal? Can I heel and toe in a semi-auto car?
It LOOKS like a race car, and damn bloody good at looking like a race car. Well to me, it's like the B-2 of war planes, while F1 cars are supposed to be like a F-22 or something, except it now sounds more like a A-10.
urgh.....!!!!! This shoe-size design strategy is really pathetic. Seriously, I thought they made another version of the CLA when I saw the first photos.
This is in Taiwan, which is a norm. This street isn't for cars for obvious reasons. See the two solid lines on the road? Those are red lines, means you can't park there.... unless you park inside the lines. So the scooters are all lined up like that. In summary, the car driver is an idiot.
Taiwan has count down timers as a part of the traffic light to let you know how much longer you have to wait on red. However it allows bad drivers take false starts.
May be it's just me, but the title doesn't sound really respectful. Can't you use something like "has passed away" instead of "is dead"?
Still disappointed at the conservative approach to this design, and I mean the fact that this is really just a bad design chop job. It looks blend. The front and the rear don't look cohesive as a design. It has too much of the "afraid to be" in it, and this isn't the kind of message that a sports/super car should be…
My guess is that it's going to be more like a disappointing face lift as opposed to a brand new look that we all are hoping for.
When I went to school in Detroit, my sister who studied in Ann Arbor was graduating and leaving the country for good, so she passed me her car. Since I am a foreign student, I didn't have any where else to insure the car. When I went to get insurance quotes with zip code 48202, a 97 Honda Prelude would cost US$5000/yr…
Ever since Bangle, I've been mostly a nay-sayer against BMW designs. I have to say that they are starting to please me again. Hate to say this, but I think this design is quite nice. The proportions are fine with me, nothing odd about it. The design is also rather balanced. It has enough zing to give people a bit of…
WTF was that a speeding car towing another car??? I think there's a much bigger problem than bad roads.
I personally don't see this as something for the family. Actually, I see great opportunity for luxury vans, and I mean a true s-class grade van, to be something that I haul important clients around town. Why bother with a S-class that takes only 3 passengers (it will be embarrassing to have a guy sit in the middle)?…
