I went sort of aftermarket and installed a China/Russia/India market OEM head unit into my GTI.  I got CarPlay, and you’d never know it’s not factory equipment.  Best of both worlds.

If you like airbags and Bluetooth, the new car is a no-brainer.

As if they won’t get fired for not rating everything 10/10.

On a scale of 1-10, how much of a pummeling would I receive if I bought one and took it to the Jeep-fest at Moab?

Seconded. Anything you say to HR will be used against you in the court of coworker public opinion, and in the court of management/administration.

I’m firmly in the RGB ALL THE THINGS camp, but I’m not always proud of that.

A coworker wrapped their Mk5 GTI in highlighter pink and I love it.  She’s cool people.

Damn you guys are good.

Ferrari, Mercedes, and Red Bull would all nope right out.

A lot of people (me included) want NASCAR cars to look like the actual cars they represent, but if we did that then one of the three would likely dominate and the other two manufacturers would be left behind.

I’m glad Microsoft makes this.

That top image is giving me flashbacks of my GameStop days.

Please don’t lump me in with these idiots.

Damnit, I want to go to racing school.

BMW already charges a monthly fee for CarPlay.  It’s already a matter of time before everyone does it.

With however much horsepower it makes, (what is it, 1,600 bajillion now?) it’s probably slower than the Veyron, and embarrassingly slow.  Doesn’t it also weight the same as a Nimitz class carrier?

And they also want this pump to survive 30 years of weather, stupid drivers, apathetic gas station employees, and misuse.
