The new Italian-made Fiat 500L comes with the LavAzzar espresso maker that plugs into a port between the driver and passenger seats.

TECCA.COM reports:
Car owners have become accustomed to things like multi-speaker stereos and heated seats. But a built-in coffee maker? Now that's a perk.

Same thing you would do if you bought your espresso at Starbucks and it burned you because you dropped it.

So the moral to the story is leave the coffee at home. Still a rather dumb concept IMO.

No! It is bad enough with people driving 20 mph or in the middle of two lanes because they are on the phone.

No need with a class B motor home, and get so many more amenities.

No and not because I'm afraid of being distracted but because I hate coffee.

Even though it only brews when the car is stopped, I think it is a useless accessory.

Don't people have enough distractions when driving. Now they want you making Espresso while your driving.

Actually I have no interest in espresso I'm a Tim Horton's coffeeholic.

They coul easily park to make the coffee.

Yes they could but there is always idiots that would figure its a license to make coffee on the road.
