If nothing else she should be pulled over for not being to see out of the glass in that car, holy gently caress.

Saw this earlier and genuinely couldn't see what was up. I've only just learned it's an Alfa Romeo and not a Mazda. Couldn't tell because these shits all look the same. https://twitter.com/thealso/status/1576113571276410881?t=OUNvXdcFHWM2sb6cq22m9g&s=19

I assume Carvana rebadged it as a Mazda to increase its resale value?

Someone who parks in my office's garage drives a Stelvio. I'm sure it's fine for what it is but I keep wondering why someone in the US would go through the trouble of acquiring an Alfa Romeo but get an SUV. Seems like the reliability issues and extra difficulty of service and parts wouldn't be offset by being cool or impressive. Anyone who knows enough to even notice your car is unusual somehow would just be disappointed.

Seems like a dumb wish but Not really a fan of this little screen in a sea of piano gloss plastic thing the new Astra has going on. I get that it's a cheapish car (~30k) but this is similarly priced

What's hilarious to me is that when i was younger, i wanted to install a carputer in my vehicle with a few screens. Now everything comes with screens, and all i want is analog gauges and buttons with a clunk.

Sagebrush posted:i think it's more "i don't care about cars at all, but whatever i get has to be super expensive" I've just about made my peace with this. When the world we live in is one where Lamborghini, Ferrari, Porsche, Maserati, Bentley, and Rolls-Royce all make SUVs and the primary shape in most people's mind for a "car" is an SUV, I have to acknowledge that I just don't need to keep caring anymore and maybe I can reclaim that slice of my brain cells for some other hobby before it's too late.

I first hacked in an old tablet and then got an aliexpress double DIN Android stereo for my miata and I'm actually pretty happy. Just plays music over BT but can do navigation, TPMS, or Torque if necessary. Easily reachable but not in the way. Still nice buttons for anything actually important.

Jonny Nox posted:...so far mobby_6kl posted:Seems like a dumb wish but quote:Not really a fan of this little screen in a sea of piano gloss plastic thing the new Astra has going on. Bleh. I don't car for the iPad sticking out of the top of the dash on the Mazda, but it still looks infinitely better (and more expensive.) mobby_6kl posted:At least it doesn't have the huge glossy bezels, but yeah still pretty bad. Phones and CarPlay/Android Auto have made the carputer thing largely irrellevant. Not totally - there's still some call for custom stuff or things you can't get an app for (especially on iOS, because Apple,) but now you can just either use a RaspPi or Arduino or something and a 7" touch screen made for the radio hole, or write the app and sideload it onto an Android-based head unit. At least for cars with normal-sized radio holes, I guess. More and more that's a rare thing itself. edit:
