    This car is so nice is person. I was driving one day, and someone had this exact model and I literally froze. It was so different, and so nice. I almost wrecked my own car 😂 But I’m glad to say I’ll definitely be getting this model, or the GT sooner than you know it

Like it’s 2021, why do I still have to use wires in my car?? CarPlay is not wireless smfh and the touchscreen is laggy and can’t do much else besides touch. I only leased it tho so if they don’t step up their game I’m looking elsewhere.
