The image generated by the system is transmitted to the central Control Display within the car. It covers a range of up to 300 meters or almost 1,000 feet ahead of the car. BMW Night Vision offers the customer particular benefits when driving over land, down narrow lanes, through gateways leading into courtyards, and into dark underground garages, significantly enhancing driving safety at night.

Not sure if this will hit the market or not, but it is possible. If it does, it should come out in 2010. It is called the A1 and should MSRP around 15-20,000 Euros. It will have 4 seats and will come with three doors and a diesel or the new twincharger engine.

Hi. I think I need to change my brake pads. I have an ABS on my 2002 RSX. Is there any particular mechanical part that I need to give more attention to? I do my own brake pads replacement for my old car without ABS. Is there a big difference when changing an ABS brakes? Thanks.
