Very good write-up. I’ll add that I not only think L3 is pointless - I think it is dangerous.

Within a day of new C class info falling pretty flat, this was a calculated strike.

The name is actually IS500 F Sport Performance.

No clue, 99% of sales people would rather take the path of least resistance and give away the car.   He was told not to give pricing online.

Apple is #1, but the next 5+ brands all use Android, so Google Android has been the market share leader for the last 10 years in the US as well.

The Korean companies have been killing it lately. I can’t wait for an actual sports car from Genesis someday.

I think the 3rd gen has real presense in the metal. It is VERY ‘late 70s early ‘80s wedge though. The interiors are pretty amazing when in good condition.

What the fuck is the point of this system? So it clearly doesn’t work that well, but why would you buy a car to not drive it? Just take the goddamn bus, then you don’t have to pay insurance on it.

Fuck this limited autonomy crap. If you’re driving a car, drive the fucking car

And if every black man in America bought a gun and joined the NRA we’d have practical if not overbearing gun control laws before the end of the next congressional session.

They call flicking through glossy magazines, glancing at the photos, “reading.”
