S650 interior first impressions

[horned-toad]

You sound like the execs that ran blackberry into the ground.

yes probably. because the stuffy suits failed to appreciate the world-wide cultural destruction wrought by self-absorbed youth who have nothing better to do than "talk" about the irrelevant banality that comprise their lives.

Instead of being taught the value of doing useful things like email (requires thought, composition, and outlines) and phone conversations in the pursuit of serious business.

It's amazing how much I have to tell recruiters that no, I don't do zoom, I have no camera on my laptop, and not on my phone either, and no, you can damn well call me on my cell to conduct an interview.

But back to the S650 interior - nothing that can't be fixed with an ounce of #8 bird shot.

So I did my best to keep an open mind regarding the screens, both my wife and I took our time and worked at what we wanted for our individual set ups. I'm certainly not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I'm not the dullest either, I have found a lack of logical continuity in how you move through functions and screens. The graphics are impressive and there is certainly a novelty about it all, but then the functional part comes in. The only way I can explain it is it feels disjointed and cumbersome. I feel like its to much work for the type of car it is. We have the PP manual 6 speed GT Convertible with the 40lA. The voice command seems to struggle with the top down with background noise (not a surprise). Its is certainly not a deal breaker but this car was bought to drive, to me I feel like it would be better with basic buttons and knobs.

The car is pleasant to drive and we enjoy it, but given the choice, I personally could do without the touch screens.

You could wake up after your car has completed an over the air update, and have the option for gauges resembling a '65 mustang. Neat things like that.

Indeed you could.

Indeed you could.

How come you have an individual screen instead of the dual, curved one?

The base model gets 2 separate screens. The premium model gets a single screen.
Functionally they are the same.

Thank you. I assume then my Dark Horse will come with a single, curved one? Or does the DH has the 2 single screen option too?

Base Ecoboost, I actually like the split setup.

Edit: y'all are quick lol

it's just cheap plastic filler between the 2 screens. Only Asian cars come with ACTUAL single, continuous screens wider than about 11 inches.

I wonder if they'll make the larger screen standard with the refresh.

never. They need to gouge customers for $2000 for a bit of $50 plastic. That's how marketing differentiation works.
