I had to "forced upgrade" my 2003 Accord last year to a 2018 Acura RDX SUV (dumb woman on her plowed into me at an intersection). It's a decent vehicle, but it's the base model and doesn't have all the camera shit. For cars like this, I can understand why they started adding 360 cameras: you can't see anything from the driver's seat! My rear view, even if I turn my head, is completely blocked by headrests, and there are huge blindspots on the sides, even with side mirrors that have a section at a different angle. Merging onto a freeway is scary in this thing, whereas in my 2003 car, there was a 360 view all around me. Like a lot of things, looks have become more important than function, even in something as safety-critical as a car.
