Why does that dashboard look like I upholstered it? And the leather covered bin lid omg.

And if they were Japanese they’d be drinking (legally) for a year now!

Because their only access to photography at the time was at auto shows?

For disabling a conflicting system? No, they do not deserve blame. For allowing their system to be tested on public roads at all in spite of its clear inadequacy all for the purpose of masturbatory self-promotion? I think that’s pretty unforgivable.

It’s not as if she’s out there belting notes. I don’t think she would need to prerecord anything to achieve that effect. And yes I skimmed through the video.

I feel like quality has hit a wall in the upper echelons of the Hyundai / Kia range. Just as the G90 isn’t really that much nicer than the prior generation Equus, this doesn’t really seem to move the needle relative its predecessor.

It must be excruciating to pilot something that takes a long time to respond to your inputs when you’re in the middle of a mishap.

i3 REx is a range extended EV.

Isn’t this what a lot of them are doing? BMW “i” and Mercedes “EQ” etc?

My mistake! My profile pic is of boba but I have to do a 500% zoom to see it.

Actually I believe they were two 5.0 V8s from their car lines. It was basically a publicity stunt they pulled around the time the LC 500 launched.

Spindle, dad. You don’t see an ugly spindle grille.

Lexus confirmed production of its yacht thing recently.

Sell the C-Class, use the proceeds to keep the RL -A Cool Car- on the road.
