    Indeed - wow! The internal screen layout seems to strongly imitate the Taycan! Not a lot of original design thoughts here other than an extra dose of ugly :)

    New York State passes new law: zero emissions vehicles required by 2035

    Man, the hot air in this thread might be enough to tip the balance for climate change :)! The oceans are carbon sinks - yes indeed the oceans, their cirulation patterns and temperature profiles, and as you mention, their interface with the atmosphere, are critical components and by far arguably...

    Anyone considering other EV's?

    These 2 Rivian's first models are really on point if design wise perhaps a personal taste - but I kind of like them. The biggest issue might be no local support (if for example bought in Texas etc.) - relying entirely on OTA access or what? Would be curious to know how they will handle...

    Mercedes EQE looks better than EQS

    EQS/EQE extremely boring exteriors to my eye and indeed akin to something Toyota would produce if that's your thing - that new Maybach SUV looks more like a Buick :) Sometimes trying too hard to be E distinctive from prior ICE designs is not always a good thing imo! Porsche seem to be keeping...

    Garage Floor Coatings

    Zero in 7 years in extremely humid Houston :) - you’d have to have some quite an unusual setup to worry about this I.e. standing water / bad drainage, bad airflow, etc etc

    Garage Floor Coatings

    Super easy - simply use a portable garden leaf blower - you can easily separate and pull up any size section too which I do occasionally and fully clear out dust/dirt if there - makes the process easy to manage with minimal sweat. I only have to do this maybe once or twice a year but of course...

    Ditto re SwissTrax - since 2015 - some older pics during a clean out :)

    BMW i4 and iX in person

    Agree that the exterior of the Merc is less than appealing which I was more than a little surprised by TBH - but def not for me.

    BMW i4 and iX in person

    Agree - had an E46 (M3 and manual sport wagon), an E91 etc. My 2015 M4 seems to represent one of the last designs themes I'd still personally favor, hence again why moving on.

    BMW i4 and iX in person

    Man, you are just validating my leaving BMW after 20 years :) BMW's exterior design has driven off a cliff imo and that incredibly and perhaps overly discussed grill was a major factor for me - I simply could not for one minute see myself driving a car with such an ugly face. My 2015 M4 Vert...
