Well, that’s good. I hope your honeymoon period with Alexa (no pun intended LOL) continues for a long time. Some of us got Alexa during the beta period in 2014 and the novelty wore off quickly. It’s great at doing the simple things like switching on a light, playing music, asking trivia, foreign exchange, playing the

This kind of beats the purpose of Alexa IMO. The whole point was to have an always-listening “Big Brother” assistant sitting in a corner. It would be summoned with a command without any extra effort, pair up with a bunch of devices, do what you wanted and go back to dormancy. The user doesn’t have to do much. Carrying

Dear Lord! That was a PR disaster. But then again, we’ve been conditioned to marketing disasters in the recent past in the automotive industry. If they really wanted to be mysterious & secretive, they would’ve let the hype machine go overtime by just showing the concept with a few specs - no interviews, small press

In the A3 loaners I’ve had, that little knob does a lot and is kinda like the mini version of the big MMI hunkin’ dial. It does the MMI power (press down), volume (turnable) and rewind/forward (slide left to right). It’s quite useful but I’m not sure of its relative placement with the other things.

I don’t really like Audi’s new design language for the A4 and not a big fan of it on the A3 either; although I’ve had the current A3 as a loaner car a few times and it’s really good to drive. But on the exterior, there are just too many straight lines and sharp corners. I like my manual B7 S4, graceful is what I think

That looks like a “Shoot” button from a fighter flight stick!

I agree that the train has left the station and there’s no point crying over spilled milk and other cliches... it was probably coined by a moronic teen with a typo on Facegram anyway. But if a few well-known blogs, like this one, would’ve curbed the usage instead of jumping on the non-hovering hoverwagon in the

The big, bold words don’t really make sense to me but is that a typo in “YOUR”? <facepalm> If it is a typo, it’s just under a tattoo-typo in terms of making the owner look like a moron.

Yeah, like the little cubby hole between the back seats to the trunk. Didn’t know a similar one existed in the front for Lambos; it’s a bit too practical for Lambo to put one :)

Yup, that’s what I was thinking too. For a moment, when he hung back, I thought that’s what he was going to do but then it seems like he paused for a sanity check.

Damn! Did that guy jump out the window?

Haha, me too. I was thinking whether it’s better to go slow and not force water in from the front or go fast and use the bow-wave but that might force the water inwards. And then it hit me, engine’s in the back. Us peasants drive front-engined cars.

$438k??!! Yeah, that’s not happening anytime soon. :(

All Chinese Matter!

Btw, I spent about 10 glorious minutes reading up more about an ‘07 V8 Vantage. And then, I found a few more quite close to me for <$50k. Of course, the warranty might be questionable at best.

Assuming the pillow doesn’t have a water leak.

Heh? But, I wish someone was hiring me :)

What’s wrong with 5?

Skeumorphism aka Forstallism.

So, that’s a Bolt & Volt from Chevy. Waiting for the Dolt.
