Is there an option to pay $1500 to REMOVE all the high-tech features in my car? No electric-assist steering, no drive-by-wire throttle, no stability control, no artificial-LSD-using-your-brakes, no electronic parking brake, no 18-way 4-memory-setting power seats with integrated A/C, no dual-zone climate control, none of that crap.
Options I want include power locks, power windows, and leather everything. If I have to have a techy car, give me a screen that mirrors my phone, with a physical volume knob and a 3.5mm input jack.
(That being said, I could have really used heated side mirrors today...)
I'd pay that. I spend 5 minutes pushing buttons to turn of TC and the artificial LSD in my newer Jeep to drive to work once the snow flies.
Hey one tire of my AWD Jeep spun half a revolution while taking off on ice. Better slam on the brakes and cut all power to the motor. Then again I see all the other idiots out there bouncing off the rev chips because they don't understand throttle control or why they can't fun summer tires past November....
