I have a Mark VII, the flagship test car is the Mark VIII. I can only hope that some of the electrical quirks I have were worked out for the VIII. There are a few oversights regarding what drips into where (cupholder right over the window switches? Hello, dripping condensation!) and what locks in where (if the window rolls up a bit too high it jams.) A window that won't open is an inconvenience, but an electromechanical door worries me. What if the battery dies? What if you get hit, the door won't open, and the firefighters can't pry it off the tracks?
Cool in concept, but in practice, I'll have to sit in for the cranky old guy who doesn't like that newfangled technology.
