How long until car companies start putting things like the AC behind a subscription?

they should embed a tap-to-pay nfc module in the INFOTAINMENT SCREEN dashboard for maximum humiliation
>suggested tip: 20% of total (including 3% electronic payment convenience fee)

also the pricing should be demand based so price goes up on sunny summer days

BMW asks consumers to pay subscription for features already installed in car

from 2022

I support this trend of moving to subscription model because I drive a 2021 suzuki with manual everything except windows and it makes it very easy to make fun of people driving new cars

what do you have a Jimny?

How long until jews- I mean car companies start putting things like the ABS behind a subscription?

>>28703673
hell yeah

I would trade AC for $5000 off MSRP. I never use it anyway

The retard features should cost more so less people are using high beams all time time, I hate these retards with auto high beams, you don't need them your headlights are already too high from the factory

Driving a used car, or acar over three years old is like wearing clothes from goodwill.
>Just dress in rags bro

>>28703907
i literally do my cars/clothes are 13+ years old
at least i own my own house nigger
do u? rentoid cuck!

The bank owns my house and one of my three cars

>>28703470 (OP)
soon i hope
i'd pay extra for fun features like a 500hp increase for 10 seconds or buttons

>>28703507
The subscriptions are easily bypassed. I have an fsc code generator so i get everything for free.

>>28703928
we have hacker here

>>28703910
this

I finally paid off my car yesterday after interest hiked to 30+ percent

>>28703907
Older cars are more based and comfy than new cars
Fact.

A yard full of old cars is better than getting a new car

>>28703907
Try 50 years old.

>>28703507
>high beam assistant
There are cars, AMERICAN cars, from the 1960's with this feature, and most of the critical components still work. Fuck off krauts.

>>28703470 (OP)
Well Tesla is going to opposite way. Before you had to pay for software updates, but Tesla hands them out for free. You would also need to buy a new car to get new features, but Tesla gives them out for free.

>>28704507
Based yeah but idk about comfy.

>>28704701
Downside is you’re driving an always online EV blob

>you wouldn't download heated seats

>>28704741
You mean upside. Imagine using a computer in 2025 without internet access.

>>28703470 (OP)
I literally don't care because I'll never own a car made after 2005.

>>28703507
>paying a subscription for high beam assist and heated seats,things a bunch of 80s cars already had
If you do this,you're retarded,no excuse possible.

>>28706648
you'll have to,truth is your 80s shitbox won't last forever,and future generations WILL drive those cars so we have to do resist this.

4-6 years after you made this thread because 4chan's "what's going to happen to society" barometer is usually that far ahead, topic dependent.
