In this decade, luxury only means cramming as much tech into a car as possible. Looks and works great for a few years, but who cares about longevity down the road when the car gets dumped after three years and replaced by a facelifted model with a newer infotainment system.

Were all crammed to the gills with as much tech as possible for the time, even if upkeep down the road would be difficult. |
Good point.
But the touch interface replacing physical buttons and stuff, often made out of metal in the S, are still a stupid idea. That's where modern technology is a step backwards. What was wrong with the metal buttons for the memory seats or mirror adjustment? They were probably a bit too expensive to make, I guess.
Golf 8 has got rid of even the light switch for a touch interface. hashtag progress.
