Sorry pal, but the Lebaron Line is $3,000. You can't cross the LeBaron Line.

Even if you are, inexplicably, a LeBaron fanatic, and are willing to pay that much for what is likely the nicest one left, you should try to talk the seller down. It’s not like you’re competing with a second person willing to pay $4500 for a LeBaron.

Probably the finest example of a 1990 Chrysler LeBaron GT in existence.

No, Apple doesn’t charge a licensing fee for CarPlay, neither does Google for Android Auto. The cost to integrate is in a couple chips to add the support. There is no justification for this garbage. 

Don’t be so obtuse.  Waze is a thousand times better than your bmw nav and it’s on car play.  Automakers have been overcharging for nav for years and car play and android auto are the big FU to that practice.  Come see me in a few years when car play is on its next constantly evolving and improving iteration while

Update to my previous reply: neither Apple nor Google charge auto manufacturers a license fee for CarPlay or Android Auto. They do require that each manufacturer sign a contract, but no money changes hands.

Apple does sign a contract with each manufacturer, but the license fee is inconsequential, perhaps pennies per unit. Apple developed CarPlay to sell more iPhones, not to become a significant revenue stream.

I’d give it approximately a week before someone figures out how to disable the car’s ‘phone home’ connectivity or whatever it uses to check if your service is still active. If it doesn’t even have one and tries to use the connected device for it, it’ll probably only take a couple hours of general availability for

Geez. As if BMW ownership isn’t already enough of an overpriced subscription service in itself.

Feels like high-end hotels charging for wifi when every crappy value hotel includes it free.

Musk's compensation is through stock options that haven't vested, so you can't say what his compensation is. Depending on Tesla's future performance, his 2018 compensation is between $40k and $2.3 Billion.

If you live in the middle of Nevada, and never sleep, I surely understand.

Meh, would suit my needs about 350 days out of the year.
I can rent fun stuff on vacation for the rest. I like it

eBoost! 

Plus the fleet manager no longer has to deal with credit cards or reimbursement for fuel costs and is down to a single contract for the charger and electricity.

More like, no, we don’t want to spend the R&D on developing reliable performance, and we’re afraid of going broke from warranty claims.

Maybe US-specs are different, but T4 is a wonderful and reliable van - drove one for years as a courier, and it’s a popular work-mule on this side of the pond. Granted, it being native work horse here made things easier - every mechanic stocked some parts for it, and what they didn’t have they could get in under an

“The ______ is a car for secretaries.” That continues to be the laziest insult in the car world. So was the Nissan 240SX. Or the Celica. Or the Eclipse. In the case of the Celica and the Eclipse, you needed to pay more for the correct engine. In the case of the 240SX, you needed to move to Japan for the correct engine.

I don’t like the monkey, it wants me to taka a survey after I voted so I can see the results of the poll. That's a NO-NO in my book, sorry
