Everything is paywalled. I’m leasing a less than 2 years old BMW, and now everything is included (e.g. phone app, carplay, guarantee), but after a while these run out, and you have to pay for even navigation.
This is also why I think it’s not worth to buy these cars, lease/rent it at the most. If you want to own smg, buy a reliable Jap/Korean option - when looking at used cars I’ve seen Mazdas hold their value incredibly (unlike the fancy German cars).
Oh man... I grew up poor and couldn't imagine my car's daily functions spontaneously malfunctioning due to a stupid code you can't control (reliably) as an end user. Having never had money to throw at solutions , I can't imagine how horrible equity will be as time progresses with knowledge and understanding of these things.
I'll check out Mazdas! I'm in the market for a new car, but really anything that just is a "dumb" car. I don't want the infotainment crap and paywalled everything, just let me repair my vehicle so I can afford to live :D
