I thought the C8 since launch was cool but it didn't really do much for me in terms of being a looker. Mercedes falling off a cliff with whatever also kicked me off a list of cars I use to like. After seeing the launch of the ZR1X this morning and seeing the depth of interior and exterior design along with power train addons. I'm beyond impressed. Not many cars have done that for me these past few years. Curious what cars you think are great half a decade in.

I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but it seems like all of the more upmarket cars/brands are constantly shoving their model/branding in your face by way of outrageous styling or excessive badging. Even historically "classier" brands—like Aston Martin—have these grotesquely huge grilles up front. The Toyota Land Cruiser was always the go-to for this, but the US isn't getting the 300 Series—except for the Lexus LX, and the Lexus badge detracts from the "stealth" significantly.

What's the "stealth wealth" car for the modern market?

Original Title: Alfa/Maserati to work together on surviving "Alfa is “premium,” while Maserati is “luxury.” Even so, the two companies are expected to consolidate efforts in other areas to reduce costs by “finding synergies where is possible.”"

Alec's 2022 Ioniq 5's ICCU failed and Alec describes his experience with the Hyundai repair process. Issues include Hyundai's disorganized and vague communication, difficulty in obtaining a loaner, and long replacement part lead time. The Ioniq 5 subreddit also has no shortage of stories regarding ICCU failure and this appears to be an ongoing problem.

Beware, bad drivers: Some states are passing laws that punish reckless driving with devices that control vehicles' top speeds.

The anti-speeding technology would monitor the driver's speed and prevent their vehicle from going over local speed limits. The law comes as Washington's state traffic safety commission reported that fatal crashes involving speeding drivers increased nearly 40% between 2019 and 2023.

"Sometimes it just takes one state to get the momentum going," Chase told USA TODAY, noting traffic safety legislation is typically arduous. "This is a new type of measure with a newer technology in the U.S. that’s really making good progress at the state level across the country."

The Intelligent Speed Assistance Program in Virginia is considered an alternative. The law allows judges to require intelligent speed assistance devices for drivers with repeat reckless driving offenses who don't want their license suspended. The devices are small enough to fit on an air vent and would stop drivers from exceeding the speed limit.
