Xbox Series X. I have a Day 1 release, and recently cancelled my XBL Gold + Game Pass due to lack of use.

2020 Shelby Mustang GT350R. I paid $80k for it and then another $25k at Shelby American in Vegas for the signature edition package. Bought it new in 2020 and it now has about 1500 miles on it.
It was my dream car but I just never have the time to drive it.
90% of people here would have to say "my car".
What would be some commonly unused features?
Driving it, believe it or not. Even a car that's used to commute to work every day still sits parked most of the day.
But, like, cats wear out by use, not time. (For the most part.)
A car is good for, say, 300,000 km. If you drive 300K in it, then you "fully used" the car.
That's like saying a pad of paper isn't used when it's sitting on your shelf. Technically true, maybe, but the pad is used up when it's out of sheets. It doesn't make sense to measure the utilization time for a consumable, like paper or a car.
Well true, the engine may be good for 300k miles. But if it sits parked all the time, the body will rust long before you get to "fully use" it.
A Fender Telecaster. I love it, but my health isn't good enough to let me play on it very much. Plus, I sometimes wonder if I should've gone for a lighter guitar...
My camera (Nikon Z6) has a lot of features I never use and probably never will. Bit it's still an amazing camera that I can use to take photos with that I couldn't with other Nikon cameras I could afford. So it doesn't matter if it has a weird feature I don't use when I regularly make use of a feature it does so well. Paired with an old 70-200 2.8 I have taken a lot of photos I would have previously not have dreamed possible with my older camera setups.
An ecoflow battery generator. Granted, it's a small-ish one but I got this itch to purchase one after seeing one in action while car camping ("I can use my hot water kettle while camping, how cool!") and when our city was warning us about widespread power outages from an upcoming winter storm ("to keep our devices powered up").
Ive gotten a sub woofer probably at ~$120 of value and a couple pool sticks (billiards) at ~$200-300 value of which I've never gotten to fully utilize yet
