    Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by hundreds of engineers that get paid thousands of dollars for something you bought at Pep Boys because your buddy who doesn't have a job told you it was 'better'?!?

    Good in what way?

    Will it lead to greater safety on the road? Probably.

    Will it be fun to drive? I don't see how.
    Not so much a signature as a cry for help.

    Hold on, saw this in a cartoon once...think I can pull it off.

    The joy of an automobile is for the driver to control the machine, not the machine to control the driver...and for that reason alone, I think this is a crap idea.

    Just what every driving enthusiast is looking for... a car that drives itself.

    No thanks.

    That guy looks visibly bored, and I would probably be something closer to insulted.
    Interested in vintage cars? Ever thought about racing one?

    Very cool, Tho I don't think it will sit well with the BMW crowd since every single person that owns or has owned a BMW is a true enthusiast.

    Heh. We should all know our opinion is little more than a drop in the bucket when it comes to BMW's decisions.
