I scare passengers

Um so yeah, pretty scary. I mean we all knew it would come down to this eventually, right? Ilivas, does the Vette have the same kind of infotainment system as say a 2015 Escalade? Pretty vulnerable according to those two. Doesn't give me the warm and fuzzies as I'm sure the Silverados use the same one and I'm eyeballing that as the future vehicle. |

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm what, why in the world are these 2 systems connected AT ALL!!!!!!! engine, breaking, all of these life and death car systems...just casually linked together with the internet facing side of the car? how did this pass QA? or anyones desk. You think jet planes engine control are connected with in flight movie crap? hell no, they don't even touch the same CABLE. *head desk bang* drive by wire is already a liability in a manual only setting... manual over ride should always be an option, but for a computer to take that away.. no thanks. |

I've never seen the inside of an Escalade's. The vette does have a nice infotainment setup though. |

It's connected through onstar. You can lock the doors, set of the panic alarm, or start the car with your smartphone. Plus it has weather, and Nav. I'd think those require Internet. Some models even have built in wifi hotspot. |

Ouch. I think the newer models look fantastic, but not for that price. |

Insane, the car is not some piece of supercar history or anything and the powertrain is nothing to brag about. I don't get it? I guess I should be glad there are tons of LS swapped FDs out there for $10-25k all day every day then. So this was my day today... Just a friendly reminder that even if you have the right of way, keep that head on a swivel. |

That really is a beautiful car though. There aren't a lot of cars in that price range that turns heads like that. |
