I wish that cars in general had fewer reliance on electronic systems though, and some non-critical modules could be optionally disabled by the owner without rendering the car inoperable..

The boat has sailed on that one unfortunately.

Safety requirements outright demand these things nowadays, and these safety things do save lives, of the occupants, pedestrians, and the other vehicles involved in the crash.

I'm not talking about disabling safety systems though.

The safety systems require the cars to be what you don't want and the requirements just keep increasing.
