Rumours are that the facelift will have one, but apparently you get used to it quickly. Its certainly not slowing down sale!.

I've driven cars without speedos in the normal spot (like the old Yarises) and don't like it at all (sorry @Scotty T). It feels like I completely lose sight of the road when looking across and down to a central display just to do a speed check. When it's behind the wheel/above the column the road ahead is still in my peripheral vision.Rumours are that the facelift will have one, but apparently you get used to it quickly.

That Ali screen is interesting. I wonder how it copes with software changes as things progress (ie: I don't understand where it's getting it's info from...
)

Welcome to my end of the financial spectrum.

I was blissfully unaware until recently that it's SAP terminology that calls it MOC.
The one thing I am gathering is that it's implementation is fucking woeful.

Yeah, but but but how? (I think I saw something about a USB-C connection? I'm asuuming it hooks in via that...?)

There is a plug and play loom that comes with them, and i guess they tap into a connector somewhere under the dash with the right canbus and sidelight signals etc.
25m long extension cable.

I've worked with SAP on and off for over 30yrs, it's like a bad smell that won't go away. You always get the SAP champions within a company who know how to use it, customise it, then make it completely unusable for the rest of us occasional users.

The brought in SAP at Caterpillar when I worked there. Nearly brought the factory to a stop until they got it sorted. I hated using it, so fortunately my role changed and I didn't need to go near it again!

That's a coincidence, I worked as a Test Engineer for Caterpillar generator division back in the late 90's. Luckily it was only inventory that ran on SAP and we had very little to with it. We gave the required part numbers to a young admin girl and she did most of the ordering for us.
Sometimes we dropped in to pick shit up and those stores personnel were as pissed off with SAP as we were. Such an overcomplicated system.

It is bloody complicated. Must have been around 2011 or so when they brought that to Cat here in Tassie.
I had heard that interpretation before, quite apt, I think.

If its you own personal car (not for the missus), definitely go performance if you can.
I was riding my bike last week when I heard this dug, dug, dug, dug noise and the nicest AMG GT-R came past me making the sweetest sound, engine ticking over like a dumper and doing 60-70kph... so nice.
I googled it when I got home, $400k and 0-100 in 3.6s.
Hold on a minute... a $85k model 3 does that same march 3.3s
