New cars, to include performance cars are relying more and more on digital technology to make them more appealing to today’s generation. While the creature comforts are initially appealing, are any of you concerned about buying/ owning a car with such technology? While it may seem impressive when you first buy it, are there concerns of long term reliability? Once the warranty runs out, will the cost of repair to fix it seem astronomical? Does it make troubleshooting easier or harder?
While the automotive world has advanced by leaps and bounds technologically speaking, how much of the latter is actually quality work and will have a long term lasting effect. That being said and for example many car companies offer 6+ year/100,000 miles warranties. Is this because the quality has gone down, and they use the long term warranty as a façade to bring peace of mind?
I almost prefer the old muscle cars and reflect on the coined term of getting into the engine bay and closing the hood to work on it due to the simplicity of yesteryears technology.
