It is so funny when you think about it. Money isn't even real. It's just something we all agree on. Money is just what we agree on to turn our "financial power" into experiences and things we can prove we "own" in our limited time on Earth.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad we can own things. I love my older Chrysler vehicles to death, they are so simple and robust! I really appreciate the design that went into them.

Does it feel better to fart a Wendy's fart into the cloth seat of your LeBaron, or a Peking Duck fart into the leather of a BMW?

Speaking of cheap BMW interiors, it seems like BMW is listening to its customers...

Quote:
BMW is rolling out a series of model updates this summer in Europe, one of which will impact the X3. The “G45” has a new option for an M door sill trim for cars ordered with the M Sport Package or M Sport Package Pro. In addition, the range-topping X3 M50 is also adding this item to its options list. But a more substantial change is on the way, according to a new report.

Our German colleagues at Bimmer Today have it on good authority that BMW will upgrade the interior quality. It appears that the luxury automaker is attempting to address some of the criticism regarding the materials used in the new X3 compared to the previous “G01” generation. Some of the interior panels and trims will be improved on vehicles built starting later this summer.

Much like the 5 Series quietly received glossy black window controls, the X3 will also eliminate the cheap-looking, plasticky switches. Good riddance. However, shiny surfaces are typically fingerprint magnets, especially in frequently used areas, such as window switches. Ideally, a car worthy of a luxury marque’s badge should feature aluminum switches throughout, but I suppose that ship has sailed in the age of cost-cutting.

Price is a bit steep, but GXP coupes don't appear for sale often:

Steep, yes. But I think it's because of the low mileage. I may be wrong, but I recall donk. having one of these, or at least the Saturn equivalent of it.

^Sounds like a stinking Porsche to me. I guess all these VAG products are the same.

Not a car, but I was checking something out in marketplace and this caught my eye. First thought was wtf is this thing.

It's an electric scooter rated for 130km with 42hp.
