At the Kia dealer to pick up a car for work. Noticed this: the Kia K 900 has the front view camera, but you would think on a $65,000 car that it would be more discreet.

Kia must’ve joined the “cameras out for Harambe” movement.

It’s almost like they are trying to show it off. Same for the adaptive cruise blanking plates on Genesis.

Have they learned nothing from the 2000 Cadillac DTS’s night vision?

Why be discreet when you can be noticed.

I have never seen one of those. They must’ve sold like 5.

The infrared night vision package was very expensive IIRC and it screwed up the look. So there you go.
