Hey Guys, I was able to join in on a buddies podcast called "Best in Class" It was pretty fun, they have a good time and its worth a listen... not just mine
Its weird. the i3 was the nicest, newest car I've ever owned. It was nice, and I do miss it. But the sh!tbox Jetta feels like Im at home.
When I like to splurge on my 24 year old LX (oil changes mostly), I get loaners at the Lexus dealership for 1-4 days, they are incredibly nice (like the LS500 - no idea why they have some loaners of those honestly)
... but I have the same feeling, the disconnected and insulated feeling is nice, but it doesn't feel like home.
The Type R was everything I could want in a vehicle, but it didn't feel like home either. I do want to have those seats in every car though (maybe black).
Driving in the rain on the freeway, couldn't even tell if my headlights were on. So, maybe not.
My old MK2 Jetta had very worn, original headlights. I recall one night driving somewhere, and having to turn them off to see if they were even actually on (the switch was a bit faulty), because I couldn't see a thing. Those lights and a badly pitted/chipped windshield made driving at night pretty sketchy sometimes.
I really want an additional indicator when someone is running their high beams coming towards me so I can be legitimately angry, rather than just wondering if I accurately saw two light sets on through my squint-vision.
A very light 70% tint on a vintage non-tinted windshield helps cut the modern headlights a little.
Most vehicles on the road come stock with this these days.
And for blinding lights in your mirrors, I've found this helps on my morning commute in the dark.
