g 1-3 weeks or so, as I need a new set of wheels. I won’t make a post about which car would be sitting on my driveway, but I’ll leave a few clues here and there.
Choice 1: Lexus IS300 AWD.
Not bad. While I would like to have an F-Sport model, the car makes up for the lack of the F-Sport goodies that I quite enjoy it.
Also, because my laptop is being a butt and likes to automatically CTRL+HOME on me, I’m typing the rest later.

Man that thing is ugly. I thought the new Civic was the king of that realm, but this is at the very least the king’s right hand man.

It’s *probably* an IS350 but very good option. I know a few people that have them and they all think they’re great.

I really hated all the interfaces in the Lexus I test drove. I was considering one, the interior turned me off.

Honestly, though, it’s probably the way to go at this point - mostly because of how less of a distraction it became.

Also, say hello to Satoshi’s new camera: The Nikon D3100.

I found the most all extremely hard to use and no intuitive. I know people hate on the BMWs, but I find the interfaces so easy to use.

I love the interiors. The mouse is a weird but other then that they look great.

True, until you want to turn the GPS off.

I don’t know, idrive is super easy to use. I drove a 2104 Lexus and things like the climate control had touch sensitive surfaces, what the hell is wrong with a damn button.

One of my fraternity brothers got an Ct200h, with the mouse and he says you get used to it, but I still don’t want that. I feel like idrive is so easy to use, I want a system like that.

How do you shut off the GPS, though? And idrive is alright, it just needs a little bit more work because it feels like BMW hasn’t learned from the old generation.

What do you mean by shut the GPS off? Personally I find idrive easiest to use out of all of the systems. It could also be that I’m more familiar with it.

I rented a BMW 330i (F30) for the day and wanted to go somewhere. However, something came up and I wanted to cancel NAV. Well, guess what? I can’t! BMW still hasn’t got their shit together.

You can, you just have to go to the nav screen, hit left on the stick, then go to the flag and cancel the route.

... And they couldn’t have made this absurdly simple...?
