Someone needs to make a simple no frills car with manual windows, a manual trans, manual mirrors etc and etc.
Todays cars are filled with so much gadgetry it adds more weight and distractions to the driver. May be the ABS can stay and HID headlights would be good -with other LED lights. All wheel drive would be nice if I lived in the snow belt/North.(-but this would sacrifice gas mileage. )
This is what Germany did with the VW bug. The peoples car. Something almost everyone could afford.
The Mazda I bought 6 years ago has power seats. I did not want power seats. You set the position once and then what? I carry the weight of those little motors and wiring with me everywhere I go -same with power mirrors. You set them once and leave them alone. This gadgetry makes no sense.
Unfortunately Americans are lazy and want their conveniences.
