Of the 100 or so options available at launch, 33 percent cost under $100, 50 percent are under $250, and 80 percent are under $500.
It just looks like they’re going to nickel and dime people for every little thing. Car meets DLC.

Have you ever bought a car stereo? Those numbers sound completely reasonable in comparison to third-party vehicle mods. It doesn’t sound at all like they’re nickle-and-diming people. Perhaps a better comparison is that the mainstream automakers are forcing vast feature bundles on everyone. You aren’t given the choice to buy a paired-down automobile. It simply has to come with a spyware infotainment system glued into the dashboard. Honestly, it would be a lot better if vehicles came in fairly and cheap forms. Then you can take them to any third party mechanic to add whatever additional upgrades you want.
