You don’t think the cloud movement is an artifact of the curve, do you? Those clouds on the edges should look the same on a flat screen.

My assumption, based on location, is that this is an always running traffic camera and these are just frames from a video. If you’re talking about a speed or red light camera, that needs to be triggered by a moving object, I think that’s a different scenario.

With your intention to drive the car so much, how does that factor into your resale plan? My first thought was that a year from now you could sell it for nearly the same price, but if you put 20-30K miles on it in a year are you concerned about driving (hah!) the value down too much?

Considering they’ve had very tiny bezels since at least 2013 (F8000 pictured) I’m a little confused by this. Perhaps you need to see it in person, and on a screen that size, to really get the feel for it but many of their 50-65” televisions have very small bezels.

This sounds a little bit like Samsung was looking for something “new” to add this year and ran out of options since they aren’t ready to bring OLED to the masses and haven’t figured out a new screen shape to promote.

And suddenly grandfathered unlimited data plans just because a lot more expensive....

I’ve never noticed it with chicken or tuna, but I’ve noticed it with deep fried foods like onion rings. It smells like...deep fried food. It’s weird.

I will admit to doing this back when I had a Volvo S80 as the next best option to not having a front plate at all. The only reason I wanted the euro plate in the front was aesthetics. The front bumper on the S80 is the exact same height as the euro plate so it blends well with the lines of the car. The U.S. plates,…

That price point seems more than a little optimistic. I can’t see an on-demand personal transportation service costing less than my cell phone or internet/cable bill each month. I would expect any company to look at what the average citizen spends per month on a vehicle and then come in enough under that to make it…

It’s the equivalent of a food coma and short for “N*****itis”

The 3GT is not considered a 4-door coupe by many (that’s reserved for the 4 Series Gran Coupe), however BMW themselves describe the 3GT as being spacious with “an elegant coupe-like shape”.

As someone else mentioned, X-Drive is fine, even good with what I consider a more predictable and controllable bias, but the suspension setup is worse than the standard suspension, let alone the sport suspension.

People throw hate at leased 320/328s, A3/4s, and the CLA all the time, under the assumption that their owners simply want the badge, so wouldn’t offering a cheaper base C-Class essentially be the same thing? At what point does it flip from “badge whore” to “great value”?

Considering the $44K base price doesn’t include leather or many other goodies, I don’t think there is a ton of room for them to go down. They could remove the HIDs, the auto climate control, the screen (nav is a separate option though) and the proximity key but that’s really all the base model has.

Then you shouldn’t be living there.

I was down in Chicago with a friend on Valentine’s Day. We were heading north on Lake Shore Drive right around Grant Park and we couldn’t help but notice that the guy driving in front of us had his arm around the passenger headrest and looked VERY relaxed. We also could help but notice the subtle bobbing of a head…

The issue in many places is probably going to be adoption. You’ll not only have people resistant because they like driving (admittedly, myself when not dealing with traffic), but people who don’t trust the car either. Then there are the many people who can’t afford such a vehicle. If you mandate it, there will be…

They’ve previously stated that they would consider a coupe after they are done updating all of their cars (90/60/40 series). Perhaps that is still in the cards, but it likely won’t exist for at least 5 years unless it’s one of their secret projects they aren’t talking about yet.

I actually really like the first example, with the lower part of the lights removed.
