- They would hold only two people, but up to 40,000 songs, 100s of books, or 200 hours of video.
- They could only be filled with gasoline from a specific, proprietary nozzle shaped like a toaster.
- You could not operate both the radio and the air-conditioner at the same time.
- They would have only one pedal for accelerating, braking, and clutch. Buttons on the steering wheel would need to be pressed to access these functions.
- The steering wheel would be on the other side.
- Bumper stickers, window decorations, and antenna clingers would need to be purchased from a single store and could not be transferred between vehicles.
- Owners experiencing mechanical issues would need to bring them to a certified Apple Garage mechanic. There would be 17 in the country.
- Vehicles would need to be authorized to play purchased CDs, and new radio stations would need to be imported into the audio system before playback after entering their range.
- Seat belts, airbags, windshield wipers, upholstery, cup holders, and other components improved upon by outside manufacturers would not be adopted by Apple. Any attempt to integrate lower-cost, innovative alternatives would void the warranty.
- The standard model would start at $433,779.
- They'd probably look pretty slick, though.
