Getting into politics folks, let’s get back to cars please. (Posts pruned)
I just posted this just a couple days ago yet some keep ignoring the request. More posts pruned.
You are all smart enough to not need that warning in the first place. You are all smart enough to know what a debate or politics topic is… and know that we don’t allow it here on CL.
I really don’t want to kick folks out of this big thread but headed that direction. Please help me.
I've seen some tesla's video and I think they are great. Could it be you're on an older HW? As for BMW, you should not need to activate if there is an accident. It continuously records and will save when it sensors an accident. You can also manually save when needed.
Could it be from one of CL's users? You never know who knows you.
My Tesla is a 2022 which has HW3. Tesla upgraded to HW4 last year so mine isn’t the newest but the quality isn’t close to some of the aftermarket dash cams. For example, when my wife was hit and I saved the camera footage you can’t even remotely make out the license plate of the other car, it’s very pixelated/blurry.
As for the BMW you are right, I have mine set on manual and auto with auto recoding in the event of an accident. I was just used to Tesla where it is always recording so when I go to my car I can pull up the footage of anyone that came near my car during the day.
IIRC the E55 didn't come until three years after the GS400. So the Lexus was at the top of the speed game for a while.
Lexus could have made an absolute killing on the GS had they introduced the twin turbo 2JZ from the Aristo into the US market but never chose to do so.
EDIT: lol, I misremembered, the E55 came out in 1999. But the GS was still the fastest when it came out in '98.
Had a few points, we generally try and only refill the cars when we have enough to knock price down to here. The least problematic car I've owned to date, I never expected it would just completely not have issues at all. Drinks a bit though...
Muh new HUNDAI, only on engine 3 This thing is going to take me a solid day to clean, the interior is hell to the point I didn't want to drive it back home. Had a friend of a friend suffer though it, should make a good sale once everything is fixed

You need a helper my friend.
Cleaning all day is a minimum wage job you can get anyone to do. Lol
Yeah I really do! Plus it's not like it's my car/something cool, I'm rationalizing it as I'm on a day off tomorrow so I can do some yardwork etc and then do this and drink a little.
I should be able to get 6-8x what I paid for it so I'm effectively still making a great amount per hour even if I clean....but you are right, I really should have someone else do cars like this. It's so damn trashed I don't want to sit on the seats as is

It's just busy work that anyone can do
Any high school kids around there want to make some money? Lol
I have a "handy man" kind of neighbor for odds & ends. Not enough skill to let him paint or fix anything but trim some bushes, stack stuff up, anything busy work he's great.
I can't afford to take time off the bench fixing electronics to do busy stuff and most people I know can't either. Lol
Sure it costs more but you get way more as well. Seems like a fair trade to have access to that level of firepower and luxury.
EDIT: I will admit though that Lexus as usual for the "normal" models absolutely was the better choice and offered a hell of a lot
I get why people pay more for a Mercedes. I never “didn’t get it” but
they are very special cars, the good ones at least. So much soul you might as well talk to the car.
Twin turbo viper 5th gen. Ruined me for all other cars since you can't unfeel a 3.8 sec 100-200 pull......I'm trying to get a car like that in my fleet and I'm going TTR8 so I have less chance to die lol!
