I agree. The routing makes no sense most of the time. The database is terrible, which contributes to the 20+mile detours that it tries to send me on. The time to target estimations are ridiculous,...

Umm, why so fixated on the dyno? That can be faked just as easily as saying 90hp gain or 60hp gain. Also, every engine is slightly different, so what would give a 90hp gain on one may result only in...

Those are the overhead view cameras. The side cameras are in the front wheel arch trim and give you a view to the left or right as you sit at an intersection.

It depends on what is already in the pipeline, but I ordered mine mid September, and my build week is the first week in November. 3 weeks may be overly optimistic.
