Looks like a different skinned Evoque.

I believe Audi A8 did it first way before with B&O.

Touchscreens take looking to a screen to find contact points—not great in a car. Buttons and rotary dials (when used appropriately) are much better and give the driver a chance at forming muscle memory. Not to mention fingerprint smears all over the screen that glare in the sunlight obscuring the graphics on-screen.

I wondering how this next generation of performance electric cars from more established brands are going to stand against Tesla and the P85D. At the very least, something like the E-Tron can’t launch into the market unless it outperforms the P85D. And then there’s the pricing..

MMI and iDrive were first shown the same year (2001). And if anything, MMI has evolved much better and is way better implemented. There was a COMAND system prior to both but it didn’t have near the capabilities of MMI or iDRIVE (HVAC control) until much later.

Where exactly is all the fat/fat splatter going here?

That is a horrible logo. Graphics, font, kerning... everything is just bad.

I don’t know if you’ve compared the two in person but the Honda is a far cry from the materials/tactile feel of the BMW. Comparing the most expensive Honda build vs the cheapest BMW build, it is still true. It’s very obvious in person.

Those DRLs look bad. They seem to have nothing to do with the design language.

You’d have a hard time putting in a direct order from a dealer since that’s exactly what you do when you get a car built personally for you. And for cars far, far more expensive than $30K. For new cars, driving an example of the model (engine, transmission, etc as close as possible to what you want) is all you should

For a new car, you test drive the make/model prior to the start of the actual buying process. It’s pretty simple. Even still, I made it a deal to take a quick test drive of the exact car before going in to sign the papers.

When I bought last year, I mentioned in my first email that I was purchasing in the next 48 hours. For the dealerships that showed online stock of a car I wanted, I gave them the exact VIN. 3 dealerships had cars that matched what I wanted; the other 2 did not but I knew that they would locate the exact same cars in

Congratulations to Scuderia Glickenhaus for even finishing.... but no specific coverage of the Audi team? I know it’s old hat for them and all but their engineering team is quite amazing,

Wait... they don’t make that? Give it a second because Porsche.

Meet at the Police Station and conduct your test drives there or circling. Los Angeles has started setting up specific areas at the police stations for online business transactions.

“on point” = military; “I’ll take point” “Who’s on point?”, where you’re at the front of the line leading the way
“en pointe” = ballet; a position where the dancer is on his toe; a perfect position — perfection and without flaw

“a few bruises to bodywork” is not what my insurance company would call it.

Nope. Nope. Nope. Nolan is the head of DC Universe for WB. He and Emma. Snyder reports to him.

I’m not seeing “Permit Only” or some such indicator. A lot of LA, thanks to neighborhood associations, have different permit holder rules.
