Depends on the car. Depends on why you are driving. Are you driving to DRIVE or are you driving to get from point A to point B ? Also Depends on the technology. I just picked up a Hyundai Sonata as a DD. This thing has some nice features. Backup screen, Bluetooth (never had), streaming audio that connects iphone to radio (no aux cable), GREAT gas mileage, GPS, heated seats, lumbar support, moon roof, buttons on steering wheel that control EVERYTHING, auto transmission to give my hip a break. (had a manual tranny Tucson that I had to drive in Boston traffic every day and it sucked), front wheel drive, etc. etc etc. All those bells and whistles are creature comforts that will make my daily commute more tolerable. Whereas my 'Boxster S' IS the creature comfort and in those times it ain't about Point A to Point B. In sports cars I think it separates the driver from the car. (not a desirable thing IMO). Technology def. has a place though.
