How can it have no screen? They even forced Mazda to put a back up camera in the Miata - which is beyond idiotic.

- bas3l1ne 3y agoBackup cameras weren't required in vehicles until (i think) 2018. My guess is that (similar to banning popup headlights), it was only required for new vehicle models released. The 370z had a ridiculously long production run starting in 2008, so they weren't required to put one in
- ricktdotorg 3y agoit really does have no screen at all! the backup camera shows up on the rear-view mirror, taking up about ~40% of the width. it's really the jankiest thing and is shockingly bad for a 2020/2021 car! (edited for clarity)
- bas3l1ne 3y agoAhh interesting! Ive never seen or heard of a car manufacturer putting the backup camera screen in the rearview mirror (probably bc, for the reasons you mentioned it's a terrible idea!)
