You don't see cell phone reviewers pining for the simplicity of old rotary dial telephones and it's such a shame that automobile journalists lack a degree of professionalism to review the product as-is and if they don't like all the settings on today's car to make a separate column about it.
I mean, this

They're reviewing a car in 2021 and whining about configurable drive modes? I mean, damn guys, the last M3 that didn't have that was the E46 M3 that stopped production in 2006? That is a long time ago!!

Cars should be reviewed against their contemporary competition. Who gives a crap than when dinosaurs roamed the earth there was a car that weight 2k lb?

Also, having to read long paragraphs where I have to hear someone's opinion about something's aesthetics is annoying. I don't give a crap what they think of the car's looks. I will make up my own mind about it.
