I agree 30K is a lot of money. Id have to save for at least 2 years to cover that and its hard to justify that when your existing care runs just fine. I hate my shitty Nissan Altima, but I dont know if I hate it enough to plop down 30k on a new car. The other issue is that the only feature I really want is Low Speed Adaptive Cruise control and nobody wants to sell it to me without selling me a lot of worthless shit I dont need. To get ACC I need to pay for a rain hole in my roof, a shitty Bose deck, a navigation system that makes Apple maps look functional, and headlight assemblies that cost $1500 instead of 300 and provide little additional functionality other then the ability to break in new an innovative ways. Oh yeah and Rims FUCKING Rims cruise control wont work without those either apparently.
