This is completely insane...

vioaltec · 07-05-2010, 02:37 PM

That is annoying

nusevad · 07-05-2010, 02:47 PM

im sure the novelty will wear off very very fast.

I think that'll get old. I mean really old. It's never-ending backseat drivers bickering in the background.

Okay. If I had to hear "LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET'S MINIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!" (as if it is a verb) every time I got in my car on a Monday morning to go to work at 9:00AM, I'd drive the car directly to the nearest cliff.

it would be cool if it had one of those futuristic sounding lady computer voices that they use in movies.

this sounds like a kids tv show

They've already banned cellphone-talking where I live because of increased traffic accidents. I'd assume having to listen to your car talk to you is no different, especially when it won't stfu.

Having owned and adored a proper Mini the BMW version has always been absolute pants. Fat, flabby, and engineered to try and be quirky instead of just being so. And the newest version looks fatter than ever.

Here they are driven by poseurs and estate agents.

Having driven both (plus track time), the new one is actually pretty nimble. Yes, it is heavier than a real Mini, but there is more to it than a few cat food tins welded together with a sewing machine motor inside. The new one even has a suspension...imagine that!
The only drawback, you may survive a crash in it, therefore it doesn't double as a casket.

If I wanted a car that talks, I would have bought one of these

Really old? Hell, I couldn't even make it through the short video before I was done with that shit.......

Reminds me of a Tropic Thunder quote.......
