I wish mine had wheels that could turn 90 degrees such that I could drive sideways into spaces, thus avoiding the parallel parking mularky.

I also wish it had something to prevent it rolling back down hills unless I had actively put it into reverse gear. (There are lots of big hills where I live and handbrakes and clutch control are very necessary).

What about you? :)

I wish mine could go onto auto-pilot when I need to take a phone call.

And vacuum its self at the weekends! :D

Rolling Backwards

try a BMW. My new 3 series Tourer has this very feature. When you take your foot off the footbrake it holds for a couple of secs to allow you to drive off without rolling backwards. Can't help with the 90degree wheels though. Closest I recall was the old Triumph Herald that had a tremendous turning circle and felt as if the wheels were at 90 degrees!

I've seen some stories recently of a new Lexus that can self park. See http://www.cnn.com/2006/AUTOS/10/16/lexus_self_park/

I'd like to see a car that knows what speed zone you're in. Sometimes the signs are badly placed and then there's a damn camera ready to get you.
