pure unadulterated and pointless eye-candy. Fun and "ooohhh" for exactly 90 seconds. Then you have to live with it and it's bugs and slow-downs and glitches for the next 7 years. Why not just grab a skin mag and admire the centerfold for 90 seconds while sitting in the garage. It's about as...
since when has that stopped the erudite, thoughtful analysis and debate by the denizens of this mold-breaking, yet "jerking off" to heritage worshiping forum?
given that layout, yes. If it wasn't intended as such, then this would be an example of seriously WTF bone-headed decision. Everybody is capable of egregious design sins from time to time.
I would frankly ask Ferrari to explain what possessed them to do the above. What problem where they trying...
My opinion and $1.25 will get you bad cup of coffee from 7-11...
But you don't have to be a design guru to observe everybody is just copying everybody else. One year it's triple element headlights with LED 'angle' as eyebrows/surround, and it metastasizes into a cancer across multiple brands...
yeah, I wanna beat the person who signed off on Sync3 Map response time senseless. Their pleas of "stop" will be responded to in the same manner as their software. Laggy, erratic, jumping all over the place, sporadically ignored...
eh? I was expressing the likely Italian sentiment. If you suffered the humiliation last time, don't you think you'd be out for blood, short knives and all? I sure as hell would be.
I think the preposterous "reality" of only-EV is finally percolating up to the C-level. They KNOW they are royally screwed if EV falls flat like it MUST and they have no way of backing out of their corner.
Not sure that benchmark is going to hold up. Short of cash of course, that may be the new floor in consumer financing. The people willing and able to pay cash is a TINY fraction of the current ownership. Cash is of course a GOOD THING, but we as a society have gone absolutely MAD for cheap...
I'm John the Baptiste, crying out in the forum wilderness. I'll leave the role of Messiah to someone else - I'm not much for suffering for the betterment of (undeserving) mankind.
In any event you conflate big money, and establishment with 'rightness'. Clearly that appeal to authority has lost...
Maybe I missed something obvious, but I am amazed I can't change between the 4 main screens of the Sync3 by voice. And to do so I have to FIRST hit the tiny Home button which mercifully is at the top left corner bounded by raised plastic so you can feel for it if nothing else.
Any particular reason you seem so invested in this? You have a GT/CS, so are you desperate to paper-over the Ford legacy of not being able to do sheetmetal as well as Kia can on cars priced half as expensive?
'murica is about trucks - pick'emups doncha know? Truly sad Detroit can't (won't?) field a decent car anymore. I wish Japan Corp and Kia the best, may they annihilate the American auto industry just like they did in the 80's.
I think Mazda lost it's way there for a bit but is coming back. I...
monkey see other monkey do, so I'll dodoo likewise is not a justification. It's just pure laziness.
I looked up 'eyesore' in Websters and it had the above picture in it. This is not design, this is not cool, this is some 10 year old seeing how many nozzles, buttons, push-sliders, bevels and...
the hate is generally (at least for me) not the vehicle itself. I think it's well done (except htat stupid center screen) but entirely with sullying the name and idea of Mustang.
I hope they sell a gazillion of them and drive Tesla into bankruptcy, or at least irrelevancy.
not a chance in hell. Unless they FIX it. I don't give 2 farthings for "mustang" in the general sense. I LIKE the S550. I LIKE the GTI v7.5. I'm not buying either of the new. I don't give a damn if the new car has 550HP and massages my butt on long trips. It looks awful inside and out.
Just the...
I should not have to shell out $2000+ to fix an egregious design gaff - it doesn't matter if they spent thousand of hours designing a shit dash - it's still shit. The BRONCO team BOTHERED to integrate the screens into the dash, albeit their choice for format made the dash rather ungainly tall...
unfortunately it's the ONLY angle that looks good. But in some twisted logic that's a good thing I guess because well, that's the view the entire world is going to experience, right?
