I live in one of the coldest cities on the planet and I don’t give 2 shits about heated seats. That’s what winter clothing is for. But the summers here are as hot as the winters are cold and I’m not SUPPOSED to drive naked, so give me some damned cooled seats.

Not sure why they didn’t just put a damn Simon Says on there too while they were at it.

Cooled seats is the single most important feature. I would take cooled seats before power windows or locks or power steering. If back-up cameras are mandatory, so should be cooled seats.

I love the “infotainment” system in my VW. It has:

Someone needs to ink a proper deal with Google to offer full android in car. Google Maps, whatever music service you want, great assistant and voice activation, OTA updates

-Tire pressure readout: pretty much all cars constantly monitor tire pressure in one form or another, so why can’t they make this info available to the driver? It can be via infotainment, or instrument panel menus, or whatever. Just let me be able to see a tire losing air before it’s critical.

One second, making more burners so I have more stars for the offering.

I can tell you what I don’t want. Fucking infotainment. They all suck and will be outdated in a year. Car companies are not good at being tech companies and a car is too expensive to be disposable. If you aren’t going to subject me to an infotainment solution at least allow me to upgrade that part alone. CarPlay and…

-Rain-sensing wipers: so annoying to keep adjusting the wiper speed in variable rain. I’ve had them on exactly one car ever, and I can’t understand why they’re not more widespread.

Headlights that turn on when the wipers are on. My 1999 Grand Cherokee had this feature and no cars I've owned since, though newer and nicer, have offered it. It's idiot proof.

Buttons and knobs.

Take my star. Every car seems to be gray, beige/tan, white, or black.

Crank windows and manual transmissions.

somewhat of a feature?

This. They’re so awful about this where I now live. I drive a manual, and when I first moved here I’d creep w/ everybody like stop and go traffic, always on/off my clutch at stop lights. Now I just say screw it. I stop at an appropriate distance, but by the time the lights green I’m 2 car lengths back. Rather save my…

Yes, please! Stop putting extra wear on my clutch because you can’t figure out how to stop behind the car in front of you.

I love the dudes who slowly creep past the line in anticipation of the light changing and then are super slow to actually accelerate. Like what the hell is the plan there? You’re not going anywhere faster you just hate sitting still?

We have an issue with this near me - for whatever reason one of the lights near me has the sensor right at the stop line. But half the old people in town stop a car length back and that means the light will literally never change for them.

I will never understand the red-light creep. Bonus points when these are the same ones glued to their phone when the light goes green!!

I’m late to the party on this but yesterday as my coworker and I were coming back to the office, we got into a round-about that has been in the area for a good decade.. Someone decided they didn’t want to wait behind the dump truck that was in front from them so they went the opposite direction of the round about and…
