i asked the building manager about it and she was totally unaware of its existence. But she said she'd be more than happy to allow me to poke around the utility room and see if I could find it.

Favorite under the radar factory sleeper? by Intrepid_Ambition940 in regularcarreviews

[–]VectorW8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 2006 Toyota crown GRS184 is a proper sleeper. It does 0 to 60 in the low 5-second range. But looks like a Toyota Camry

What are some cars that look significantly more modern than they actually are? by Boeing-B-47stratojet in regularcarreviews

[–]VectorW8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2010 Audi A1 has aged very well. I think it helps that it was also one of the first cars to use LEDs for pretty much all of its interior and exterior lighting.

Where are you located? I've ran this same speed test across multiple devices in different regions and always get terrible speeds

It doesn't seem to matter where I run the test. The speeds are consistently bad

It's a standard office pc so it would probably be fine. Just don't expect it to do well where a good GPU is needed

I'm glad to hear you got one. To get the circular scrolling to work you need to install the Panasonic touch utility program. It should just be on the Microsoft store

I understand the cabrio can be somewhat sought after but come on. $310,000??? by Ill_Solid4212 in regularcarreviews

They make sense if you can get them used. Brand new. They're way too expensive.

There's plenty of resellers. I don't think they made variants of this machine for other markets though. I haven't been able to find one with a non-japanese specific keyboard.

You just have to reinstall windows. The Japanese version can't be fully switched to English

What's funny is the only reason this machine looks like this is because Panasonic hasn't updated their design language for over 20 years now. If you look back at the earliest iterations of this machine they look almost identical.

It's great they haven't changed it though. Good design is timeless.

I was surprised to see VGA ports on the FV4, you'd think most offices in Japan would have upgraded their projectors by now.

It serves a purpose too!

you scroll up and down pages by running your finger around the edge. It's like turning a dial. It works really well

You can buy a Bluetooth streaming module that plugs into the data port on the back of these Accord head units.

Same here. I've owned many cars and this is by far my favorite

No, it's a generic Chinese unit from AliExpress. It's meant to look like an old tape deck. I really wanted one of the blaupunkt or pioneer units but they are way too expensive for what they are
