Memory adjusting seats, heated mirrors, wood-grain & windshield wipers on headlights (oldschool but retarded) ..

Heated seats make me feel like I just peed on myself...

Perhaps you don't need heated mirrors in warm, sunny San Antonio, but when its 3 below zero and you wake up and have to scrape ice off of your windshield and mirrors, those heated mirrors do come in handy. Many of us Northeners are happy to have them.

Built-in seat warmers

MPH past 80 Lol. Who the heck drives 150 MPH on the street or fwy!? Lol

My model is "The nicer the car the slower you drive". If you got a bucket you floor it so no one sees you Lol

:ROFL:Such a way of putting things into perspective... Fishmamma, you kill me sometimes.
 
I love my seat warmers! They saved me from hypothermia a few months ago. I hate Raynaud's syndrome.

The most useless options I can think of are cooled glove boxes (they exist), power seats, the BMW iDrive system (makes driving way too complex), rain sensing windshield wipers (if you can't see the raindrops you shouldn't be driving), and seat massagers. Honestly, the less moving parts on a car the better, there are fewer things to break. Decreases weight, increases fuel economy, and makes driving less frustrating.

i sell cars and the stupidest is advanced keys. really how hard is it to push the button on a key or turn a key? i dont like some things like active park assist or active cruise control becuase i dont want the world forgetting how to drive and relying on just driver aids

Sometimes I'm driving the Mrs's car with a smart key. We reach the mall and she jumps out to run to the bank with the key in her bag leaving me to look for parking lots with her car beeping like mad. Happened 3 times already.
 
smart keys are dumb, and they cost ungodly amounts of money to replace. just give me a regular old fasioned key without even the stupid computer chip in it
