Except way earlier than that, both Apple and Google approached the manufacturers about making it easier to hook smartphones into car stereos/infotainment/navigation. But the car makers had this notion that they’d create their own solutions, and that would eventually lead to mad revenue, because they were seeing how…

Sure, Carplay has its issues; but it is 100000000000000000000x better than Toyota’s shit pile of a system they call Entune.

I do my part. I have bought many manuals new and have one in the garage right now (although it is not a DD). You salty, self- righteous jalops better step up to the plate and buy this DD-worthy ride en masse or you can shove your future bitching about ‘no manual, I won’t buy it’ right up where Torch might write an…

Oh no! People have beliefs and morals, round them up and slaughter them!

2 am in Florida, Feds including ICE agents quietly line up outside a quiet, unassuming white import shop. They place chains on the large overhead door which are firmly attached to the back of an acquired MRAP. With a solid tug and wail from the diesel powered behemoth, it rips the entire door and parts of the wall…

What’s you’re point? That it’s not as good as a paint job that costs 10x as much or more?

The TSX was just the Euro Accord, though. That’s why it didn’t look like hot garbage.
