Pre-mustache, I had a 1999 Volvo C70 convertible. Pretty frickin' fancypants. It had all the features available at the time. You know what's really nice? A crisp fall day, sunny but cool, and the leaves are changing. Drop the top, crank the heat, turn on the heated seats and enjoy. Ahhhh.
With all the fancy features that car had, the one I miss most is the heated mirrors. Around here, freezing rain can be an issue, and the heated mirrors meant vastly improved rearward visibility. Apart from that, I could take or leave most features in the car. Although, when everything was working right (it was in the shop all the time) the car was really nice.
Today I drive a little 2012 Chev Sonic. Its the middle model, not the 'fully loaded' one. It cost me $8,000 used, one year old and was basically new when I bought it. Funny thing is, apart from the heated mirriors and convertible top, it has all the features that the fancy-pants Volvo did. Amazing how feature creep works, isn't it. The one feature I'd add to this car is the rearward camera - blind spots have grown, and any visibility is a good thing. But If I wanted the camera that badly, I could get one aftermarket.
For those asking about dashcams...
check here. Some cheapies work just fine if all you need is evidence. If you want to post up youtube vids, you may want something better.
