- How nice a sunroof would be
- How hard it is to check the damn oil
- Honda ricers always want to race (new fart pipe a must)
- The 3 dots are replicated all over the Z

The Z is a far better & more comfortable cruiser than I thought it would be.

So, since I brought this thread back to life, let's see what we can find new on the 2007's.
Peace!

Program your garage door opener on the first button on the mirror.

If you set the A/C to "outside air", it automatically switches to "recirculate" when you first turn it on. When the cabin gets cool enough, it switches itself back to "outside air".

I have an 03 Touring btw.

My favorite "feature" is that when you crank your wheel all the way to one end, your mirrors move to give you a better view. Great for pulling out of parallel spots.
I didnt know that. Now I have to check! lOL

Just tried rolling down the window with remote, but didn't know how to roll it up. So I had to uncover my car, get inside, and close the windows. I wish I had read your thread 10 minutes earlier. It is a neat feature though. Thank you all.

4months and I thought I only had one outlet...thats news to me, Im checking this when I get home...lol.

Another hidden compartment in the armrest cupholders. Just lift the whole cupholder assembly up and put your "stash" beneath it, then replace the cupholder.
Peace!

ooh my favorite is the flat hidden space in the cubby behind the passenger's seat... it has a false bottom, you can actually lift what you think is the bottom out and there's room for papers [i mean like sheets of paper, not rolling papers] and other flat items down there. i discovered this while vacuuming the cubby [note: felt is VERY DIFFICULT to vacuum] and the vacuum sucked up the "bottom"....very cool.
