I hate memory/electric seats. They’re slow, and you have to trust ‘em. It takes less than a second to adjust a manual seat forward/backwards, and if anybody changes your other settings in your car, you just kill them and call it a day.

I legitimately want that in every car I drive.

The A4 cabrio did too. I wish every car had this.

The Pic got Kinja’d. Here’s what I’m talking about.

I get what you’re saying, but they don’t do it for the same reason temperature gauges only read Hot and Cold or Oil pressure gauges rear high or low. The average consumer doesn’t know how to interpret what they’re seeing, and can misinterpret an actual gauge reading. Back in the day, when Ford used to label the

A bunch of the newer cars switched to a gloss black capacitive touch panel. No rubber labels to wear anymore.

Clearly you never tired to get out of your car quickly and got nearly strangled to death with the automatic belt. 🤣

rather than buying new safety seats every year.

Mazda had another good one. 929's of a certain year had a solar powered fan that exhausted hot air out the moonroof when parked. If they had that today, and integrated to the sensors of rain-sensing wipers so the roof would close if it rained, that would be the shizzle. My 83 Civic had a dedicated lidded coin tray

This seriously pushes the boundaries of “Running, driving vehicle with a manual transmission under X dollars” so it’s definitely a conundrum.

The line “Need a lift?” always gets them laughing.

Who hurt him?

Or the real bosses living the best of both worlds, never wearing pants to the office to begin with.

I literally can’t appreciate a car that costs 2M. Cars for me have zero value above $60,000. I don’t care if I become a millionaire, I’ll never buy a car worth more than that.

I mean, I’ve been a Porsche owner for 15 years and edit a Porsche website, and sold vintage Porsche parts for 10 years before that, so I know what makes a cool Porsche more than most. 

“Appreciate in value “ is such a soulless reason to buy a car that should be all about soul. I get why people would consider it, but sheesh. It’s not a reason I’ll ever consider when buying a fun car and it makes me sad that the joy of cars is just another transaction to many car enthusiasts.
