They cannot provide the data. Only the owner of the car can. It’s a Federal law.

There’s a few interesting issues you raise here. Modern cars record pretty much all inputs to the car, including throttle, steering rack, brake application, and about everything from any gauge, for a short amount of time detected before any crash in the airbag control module. Usually it’s at least five seconds prior…

Don’t have a cow!

Doesn’t 0-60 in 5.1 with 365hp seem slow-ish? This thing must be super heavy.

I’ve bought through my Echo exactly twice, and both times it was batteries. You can also set a passcode so without it, you can’t make any purchases.

My 3 is the 2015, right before the mid-model refresh of 2016. Folks say 2016 and later is a way more fun and dynamic car. I’m hoping that if I get another after this lease is over that it’s a bit more fun than my current one.

I’m too terrified of maintenance to own one of these darned things out of warranty!

No I just forgot how to type. The 3 is an auto. Dammit.

2013 135is, 2015 335xi. The 3 is down about twenty horsepower from the “is” tune on the 1, but I believe they’re the same engine. I think some of the earlier 135 engines were twin turbo, but that mine was after they switched to a single.

You must be confusing me for somebody else? I’ve never owned a GTI or a Mustang.

But two years ago was a hot mess. Which is why I rushed to end my lease early and get the X-Drive 3 series. Sigh. The litter 1'er could’ve totally made it through last year’s winter.

Woof. Those reviews. And it doesn’t charge. And them ports be minimal. Woof.

Sigh. This makes me wistful.

This is neat in concept, but I think that in practice if I wanted a laptop to be tied to a spot on my desk, I’d really want that spot to allow peripheral hookups. A docking station does 99% of what this does with way better functionality. Neat proof of concept, though. If they get a wireless dock together, that’s a…

Real, non-snarky question: How are the drying rack/washing drawers better for delicates than the existing delicate cycles? Are the cycles not as delicate as us non-boob-havers are led to believe?

This seems like a really unhelpful innovation.

Lemonade may not feel like a pop album, but calling Beyonce anything other than a pop artist is just not true. I think a lot of folks still thing of “pop” as a negative connotation.

Even just the list above, Beyonce and Frank Ocean are huge artists. HUGE. Kanye’s newest was great, even though he’s an insufferable human.

Counterpoint: Some of the best records of this year were by crazy popular artists.
